Biography

Shouldn't there be, like, flashing lights or a puff of smoke or something?

— Barb about the fake fertility spell.

Ingrid and Hudson doing the fertility spell around Barb.

For years, Barb had been trying to get pregnant but after another failed attempt with IVF, her doctor told her it would take a "miracle". When she was at work at the East End library, she jokingly asked her friend Ingrid Beauchamp, who happened to know a lot about witchcraft and occult practices, to cast a spell on her. If Ingrid first refused, she then came around the idea and thought it would do no harm to try it for fun. So Ingrid, Barb and Hudson Rafferty met after work to do the fertility spell, which apparently did nothing.

The next day however, after she had sex with her husband, Barb had a dream of Ingrid handing her a baby. In the morning, she took the test and discovered she was finally pregnant, so she went to thank Ingrid, knowing something truly magical had happened. Ingrid had a hard time believing it at first, but Barb was sure the spell had something to do with it.
