About Evelyn Carnahan
Evelyn Carnahan is the main female protagonist of The Mummy. She is a clever and ambitious Egyptologist. Also, she has a great obsession in finding the ancient city of Hamunaptra. Although most of her colleges consider this old city as nothing more than a myth, she is convinced that there is something much more than a tale.
Moreover, she believes that this is the place where she can find the ancient book of Amun-Ra, called the Book of the Dead. Full of spells and black magic, this book is very dangerous. Once she finds a strange key, she starts the adventure. Along with her bother, her future lover, Rick O’Connell is also a companion, since he is one of few persons who know where the ancient city is hidden.
This mission doesn’t go smoothly at all. Suddenly, there are some American competitors who also go to Hamunaptra. During one of their encounters, Evelyn steals the ancient book. Once she read the words from the book, Imhotep gets resurrected. And then the real problem begins. Although clumsy, she eventually beats the ancient Egyptian priest and sends him back to dead. Of course, with a big help of her future lover Rick O’Connell.
