Morticia Addams

 

Morticia is the wife of Gomez Addams and the mother of Wednesday and Pugsley. She lives in the Addams mansion in Central Park with her husband and children, as well as her brother-in-law Fester, her mother-in-law, and their servant, Lurch.

 

Morticia shares the standard Addams family sensibilities: a taste for darkness, drama, and death. She is passionate, poised, and beautiful. Her husband, Gomez, is the love of her life, and she, in turn, has him wrapped around her little finger. She becomes extremely upset when it is implied by her daughter that she is growing older, fearing she’ll get crow’s feet and worrying that perhaps she and Gomez missed out on life by staying so close to home for so many years.

 

She has a more aloof presence than her husband, but underneath lies a tender and loving soul. She cares very much about her children and is quick to give a listening ear to Alice, the lonely mother of her daughter’s boyfriend when she needs it.
