What is Leena Klammer's secret in the movie Orphan?

Answer 1

Leena Klammer (Isabelle Fuhrman) had MANY secrets:

1. She was Estonian, and suffered from a rare hormone disorder called Hypopituitarism, where her pituitary gland doesn't produce normal amounts of hormones, and causes dwarfism. She was born in 1976, and she was 33 years old!

2. She was sexually abused by her father, thinking it was "love," and became sexualized early. When her father got a new girlfriend, she killed them both.

After that, she wanted a new "father figure" to have sex with, and, she decided to disguise herself as 9-year-old "Esther" by wearing 1900s-style dresses, fake teeth, bandages to keep her breasts down, and foundation and powder for her face.

3. She was institutionalized for killing a number of people, and had to wear a strait jacket to protect herself and the hospital staff from getting hurt. She tried to fight her way out of the strait jacket, and her neck and wrists developed permanent scars. She took to wearing ribbons with her "Esther" disguise to hide the scars.

4. She escaped from the mental instution after trying to seduce and kill Dr. Varava and other staff people. She used her "Esther" disguise to avoid jail and was put in an orphanage.

5. She tricked an American family into adopting her, and when she couldn't seduce the father, she killed him and his entire family, and set fire to their house.

6. She was placed in another orphanage, and I once read something about the Colemans wanting to adopt a girl named Yolanda, and "Esther" killed her and hung her body in a closet. She later killed Sister Abigail (CCH Pounder) after she visited the Coleman house.

7. She tried to kill a classmate named Brenda (Jamie Young) for bullying her, but when she knocked Brenda off the slide, she only suffered a broken leg and ankle.

8. She set fire to the treehouse not only to get rid of evidence of her behavior, but to even kill Daniel (Jimmy Bennett) and Max (Aryah Engineer).
