Death

In 2013, after years of tortures and abuse from her, one day, Mabel put on a pair of earrings and asked Beth for her opinion.

Alice is still haunted by the trauma she went through from Mabel's abuse. She appeared as a hallucination after Alice was subjected to a dose of fear toxin.[1]
Personality
Mabel had a mediocre relationship with her son and grandson. She was truly horrific and cruel to Alice. She abused Alice to the point that she was the one person Alice truly feared. Mabel was also very vain and shallow as she cared more about her own beauty and was obsessed with the idea of losing it by getting old. Her vanity led her to be obsessed with Gabi Kane because of her youth and beauty.
Mabel wore Gabi's earrings to taunt Alice, which resulted in her painful and yet deserved/justified death after discovering her mother's decapitated head in a locked fridge.
