Tracey Barcley

Tracey Barcley is the mother of Holly and Katie Barcley and the wife of Richard Barcley. She first appears in a deleted scene The Stalker 1, but her first official appearance is in The Stalker 3. She is briefly seen in Katie's Flashback in The Stalker 5.

Early Life
When Tracey was in her teens, she fell in love with Richard Barclay and began dating him. Unfortunately, when she was eighteen, Tracey was drugged and raped by an unnamed man, causing her to fall pregnant with her eldest daughter, Katie. Tracey convinced Richard to raise Katie as his daughter and the pair married and had a second child, named Holly. Tracey was unaware that her husband secretly despised her eldest daughter and was a psychopath, eventually plotting to murder Katie and numerous others.

The Stalker 1
Tracey appears in a deleted scene, shown having breakfast with her family. She tells Katie that she is going overseas for the week and is taking Holly with her, leaving Katie home alone. Tracey never appears in the first film except in the deleted scene, although she is mentioned by Katie, who states she wishes her mother was more caring. She also leaves a note for her eldest daughter explaining where she and Holly have gone.

The Stalker 2
Katie asks after her mother when Adam Yates comes to visit. Adam says that Tracey and Holly are doing okay and moved house a few weeks ago. This seems to imply that Katie and Tracey do not contact each other very regularly.

The Stalker 3
Tracey has become depressed because of all the terrible things that have happened to her family, and has taken to drinking. As a result, she has a strained relationship with both her daughters, often neglecting them due to her alcoholism. When Katie hears that Tracey let Holly go to work during the murders she is furious. She also slaps Tracey for referring to Richard as "her father". Later on, whilst she is home alone, Tracey is attacked by the Stalker, who seriously wounds her. She is found by Holly and Lori, and apologises to her daughter, saying she is sorry she couldn't be the mother she needs. She is later held hostage by Officer Harris and her former husband, Richard, who are revealed to be the killers. When Katie is forced to choose the two people out of the six hostages she can save, Tracey begs Katie to save Holly and let her die, so as to put her out of her misery. Katie tearfully agrees, choosing Holly and Emma Livesy. Tracey begs Richard not to harm her daughters, prompting him to brutally stamp on her. She dies of her injuries.

The Stalker 5
Tracey briefly appears in Katie's flashback where she helps Katie get through her grief over her friends' murders. Katie then tells her she is moving to the city with her friend Emma, for a fresh start.
