History[]
Not much is known about her, except that somewhere in time she married Nick and had a child. At an unspecified time after, the family excluding Nick were all murdered during a break-in by the demon Abraxas on the orders of Lucifer.
Sarah in Season 5.
In 2009, Nick (still in grief for both his wife's and baby's deaths) was haunted by hallucinations caused by Lucifer, who had just been released from his cage.
In a dream, Lucifer appeared as Sarah and tried to convince Nick to say "Yes," saying Nick didn't deserve what happened to him and it was God's fault in the first place. Nick, skeptical that it was really Lucifer, asked if he could bring back his deceased family, but Lucifer said he couldn't, but could give him justice.
In 2018, after the death of Lucifer, Nick discovers that Sarah and Teddy's murders are still unsolved and begins a quest for revenge, attempting to learn who the killer was. Nick eventually tracks down a former cop named Frank Kellogg who, under torture, reveals that Sarah called 911 reporting a prowler on the night of her murder. Frank, the beat cop in the neighborhood investigated and met a man who called himself Abraxas outside before he woke up covered in Sarah and Teddy's blood in his cruiser. Nick realized that Abraxas was a demon who possessed Frank to kill Sarah and Teddy and beat Frank to death as, in control or not, Frank's hands were used to murder his family.
After coming face to face with Abraxas, Nick learns from the demon that he murdered Nick's family on Lucifer's orders. Nick kills Abraxas with an angel blade to avenge Sarah and Teddy's murders and justifies his own murder spree as being necessary to get revenge for his family.
The ghost of Sarah appears to Nick.
After getting his revenge, Nick returns to his old house only to find it abandoned and be greeted by Sarah as a ghost, initially mistaking his wife for Lucifer. Sarah explains that she is trapped on Earth as a ghost by unfinished business: her and Teddy's unsolved murders. Nick then tells Sarah that it was the demon Abraxas possessing Frank Kellogg and he got her revenge by killing the demon, to her surprise. However, Sarah tells him that her unfinished business isn't just Abraxas or Lucifer, its Nick himself.
Sarah explains that she was present the night that Nick became possessed and witnessed Nick say "yes." She recognizes that Nick has returned in search of Lucifer in the place where they became one with each other. Sarah demands that Nick prove her wrong by rejecting Lucifer which will allow her to finally move on and find peace. However, Nick can't and she condemns him for still wanting to be with Lucifer but is shocked when he acknowledges it and departs to continue his search for Lucifer. The devastated Sarah calls out to her husband but he leaves her trapped spirit in their house.
