Anne Lasker

Anne Lasker is a minor villainess from an episode of Poltergeist: The Legacy titled, "Rough Beast."

She was played by Chilton Crane.

Anne Lasker is the mother of Tracy Lasker, a patient of Dr. Rachel Corrigan. After learning about Tracy's nightmares involving a werewolf and the connection to her and Anne, Rachel visits Anne, who reveals a story about a wolf-like creature attacking her and Tracy years ago. In the encounter, Anne shot and killed the beast, who was revealed to be Tracy's father. When an actually werewolf is prowling at night and killing people, the Legacy believes that Tracy's father has somehow returned. However, Rachel learns that Tracy is the werewolf after she transforms in her bedroom in front of her. Anne stops Alex from killing Tracy, who jumps out through the window and lunges after Nick, who later shoots and kills her. Anne reveals that she knew all along about Tracy and stated that she couldn't be saved. At the final scene, Anne cradles her daughter's body and looks up into the sky; flashing yellow, wolf-like eyes and growling, revealing herself as a werewolf.
