| “ | I've always known what you are. From the moment your first touched me to when I found myself stepping over remains of your skin glued to the floor. You have no regards. I had none either. You squealed like a pig. Just like a pig. This has been my childhood dream. The one you took from me. I collected all those bruises for years. My spine hurt as if a needle went through each segment. Once I got used to it, I didn't think about it anymore. But you made me think about it forever when you made that mistake. You took my angel away... | „ |

Lacey's Uncle, also known as just Uncle is the main antagonist of the Brazilian digital horror series Lacey Games. He is the abusive uncle of Lacey, the main protagonist of the series, and the source of her sanity slippage.
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- He repeatedly raped his niece, Lacey, throughout her entire childhood, seeing her as nothing but a toy. As a result, he gave her severe and episodic trauma.
- He repeatedly abused and tortured Lacey in various ways, such as using her body as an ashtray for his cigarettes, beating her daily, and at worst keeping her in confinement, which he usually kept her in a cage.
- The abuse was so bad that Lacey ended up finding comfort in the very pain she continuously felt, willingly going back into the cage under the belief that her pain was "normal" for her.
- He killed Lacey's dog, Puddles for no reason besides sadism, even went as far as to laugh at her when she asked him. It ended up being his undoing when Lacey killed him as revenge for years of abuse.
- Even after his death, his abuse was the cause of Lacey's insanity in the present day and resulted in her being unable to make a living, leading to her serving disgusting food (including her uncle's remains) to the customers of the restaurant out of spite and later committing suicide after losing everything.
- His death at Lacey's hands isn't played for any sympathy as he completely deserved it for all the horrible things he has done to her.
- Despite the Lacey Games being an exploitative deconstruction of flash games, they had a strong message regarding the issues of girlhood and how they were defined in trying to fit into their feminism with the uncle representing the worst yet realistic aspects of abusive relatives.
- While he barely had any lines, he was still proven to have enough characterization, given how he was a cruel, perverted man who laughed at his niece when asked about her dog's whereabouts. He was also shown to be a coward, as he feared having his crimes uncovered and "squealed like a pig" while dying to Lacey.
- While some dialogue suggests he had worried over the "sins being too visible on his skin", implicating he had some form of remorse for what he did to Lacey, it's more of fearing the consequences of his actions catching up to him rather than legitimately regretting what he did to Lacey. Given how he saw himself as desirable, he repressed any sense of remorse in favor of satisfying his lust for Lacey, showing how very little, he's traumatized and harmed her.
Trivia[]
- There are theories that if confirmed true, would make him even worse:
- It's been heavily theorized that Lacey's uncle is not actually her uncle, but rather a serial rapist who killed Lacey's parents, kidnapped and raped her.
- There are theories that the reason why there is more than one pig in the scene where the pigs eat the flowers is that her uncle was not the only one who abused Lacey and that her uncle had pimped her to other men.
- If theory that all creepy content in games based on Rosío Yani's trauma is true, then it might mean that he was her uncle in real life and abused Rosío in the same way. It also would make him responsible for games' creepy content and Rosío's rude personality.
