Hattie Turman

First introduced in chapter 3, Hattie is said to be a babysitter of Billy and does so as a way of keeping sane in the situation at hand. She does not have much part in the novella, but it can be said she is also religious but not in the way Mrs. Carmody is. She is one of the survivors which try to make it to David's car during the escape of the market, but is cocooned in acidic webbing before she can and carried away by a spider creature.
