Julia Shumway



I know we've screwed up over and over again. But, even with everything that's happened, I still choose to believe you're trying to protect us. I think that when you stopped moving, that was your way of giving us all another chance, so I need to ask you for one more thing: Please help Melanie. She deserves to live - everyone in here does! You said that I was chosen. Well if I was, then that has to be for something, so if someone has to die then let it be me; just please don't take any more of them." —Julia telling the Garage to kill her if someone has to die -- not Melanie..

Biography
Julia was as a journalist in Chicago, with her Doctor husband, Peter. Julia was covering a mayoral election, and was leaked documents that would incriminate one of the candidates. Julia suspected the evidence was forged, but moved forward with the story anyways. Her story was discredited, her reputation was ruined, and she lost her job. Six month before the garage came down, Julia and her husband move to Saco Maine, her husband's hometown, to start over. She started working in the small town's local newspaper, as the editor, the journalist and the photographer. Unlike everyone else who lived and grew up together, Julia hasn't lived in Saco Maine for long and feels like an outsider trapped there without her husband, who, unbeknownst to Julia, developed a gambling addiction and thus lost their savings, placing their house under threat of foreclosure, and became distant. As a result, Julia simply suspected him having an affair.
