| ~ The Dollmaker after Bumby's true colors are revealed - also his most famous line. |
Dr. Angus Bumby, also known as the Dollmaker in his Wonderland incarnation, is the main antagonist of the American McGee's Alice series, serving as the unseen overarching antagonist of the 2000 video game American McGee's Alice and the main antagonist of its 2011 sequel Alice: Madness Returns. He is also a posthumous antagonist in the 2015 animated short film Alice: Otherlands.
He is a psychiatrist and secret child sex trafficker, as well as both the killer of Alice Liddell's family and the mastermind behind the Infernal Train, Wonderland's corruption and Alice's insanity, thus making him her true archenemy.
He was voiced by Alistair McGowan.
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- He continually sexually harassed Alice Liddell's older sister Lizzie, even though she kept telling him to stop. While he was patient with her at first, he eventually decides to force himself on Lizzie, and ultimately decided that if he couldn't have her, then nobody could. He eventually raped and murdered her in the night.
- To cover up his crime, he set the Liddells' house on fire and burned Alice's parents alive, with Alice herself being the only survivor. This traumatized her and caused her to go insane and end up in a mental asylum. American McGee's Alice shows the extreme mental damage he had caused.
- Following the murders, Bumby began brainwashing children into allowing themselves to be molested by London's pedophiles. He sold them in exchange for a certain amount of money. While he claims that he was doing a favor to the community, he is not open about it, and his actions were essentially corrupting the community.
- After Alice left the asylum, Bumby volunteered to be her psychiatrist. In truth, not only was he trying to erase Alice's memories to avoid being sent to prison for his crimes (assuming he wouldn't be hung for them), he was also trying to turn Alice into a prostitute who would most likely allow men to do whatever they wanted to her.
- Despite everything he did to ensure that the truth was never revealed, Bumby acted as his actions were acceptable when Alice learned of them. He claimed that Lizzie was playing hard to get, that he was providing a service to the community (even though his actions were most likely making London far worse, as he was encouraging criminals to engage in horrific behavior) and that Alice would be better off as a prostitute.
- His Wonderland counterpart the Dollmaker wishes nothing more than to destroy Wonderland utterly. He also collects insane children and turns them into dolls as his name would imply, similar to the actions of his London counterpart.
- In the final boss battle, the Dollmaker makes perverted and inappropriate hand gestures towards Alice.
- He's ultimately responsible for almost every bad thing that happens to Wonderland in the games, as it's a reflection of Alice's tortured mind, and he's the one who drove her insane in he first place.
