“Now, we all dead for long time, but you, I wouldn't want to be in your shoes, ha ha ha ha ha!”

— Auntie Poulet to Tommy Vercetti in Juju Scramble.

Auntie Poulet is a main character in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

She was voiced by the late Youree Dell Cleomili Harris, better known as infamous "psychic hotline" spokeswoman Miss Cleo.

History

Background

Poulet is an elderly Haitian matriarch and the leader of the Haitian gang (which she also uses as her own protection).

Most of Auntie Poulet's life before the late 1980s is unknown. Poulet was born in Haiti, having started both tea and drugs business during her youth. Poulet also founded a small Haitian gang.

From 1984, shortly after Vic and the Cubans defeated the Cholos, Poulet and her Haitians gang came to Vice City and took over the Little Haiti district, starting a gang war with Umberto Robina and his Cuban gang.

Events of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

Poulet gives Tommy Vercetti mind-altering voodoo potions to get him to cooperate in the missions she wants him to undertake from her shack in Little Haiti. This includes acting against the Cubans, with whom he has friendly relations. However, when the effects of the potion wear off, Tommy shows no memory of what he has done for the Haitians.

Ultimately, she cuts her ties with him and wishes that he not return to Little Haiti, but if Tommy returns, he receives a final phone call from Auntie Poulet ("Why you coming back here fee? Me tell you we don't want to see you around here no more"). Following Poulet's final mission, Tommy destroys the Haitians' main drug operations plant.

Trivia

• In the original PS2 version of the game and Xbox version, Auntie Poulet wears a purple dress with matching head wrap. However, in all other releases of the game, she wears a yellow dress with matching head wrap similar to her box-art rendition (except 10th Anniversary Edition for iOS and Android), though her slippers are still purple. Her original purple outfit was later restored in The Definitive Edition.
• Poulet is French for "chicken".
