Her mother, Morticia Addams (played by Catherine Zeta Jones), later discloses that her sister, Aunt Ophelia, also possessed psychic abilities and experienced this same unsettling symptom.

Morticia reveals that Ophelia's excessive use of her powers led her to insanity, resulting in Grandma Hester Frump (Joanna Lumley) committing her daughter to Willow Hill Psychiatric Hospital.

However, since her release, Ophelia has not been seen for many years, leaving the family in the dark about her whereabouts.

While Aunt Ophelia may not currently feature in Wednesday, she has a long-standing history with The Addams Family franchise.

Aunt Ophelia has made appearances in numerous The Addams Family films and TV shows over the years.

She was brought to life by actress Carolyn Jones in The Addams Family series, Allegra Kent in the 1991 film, Laura Esterman in 1993's Addams Family Values, and Lisa Calder in The New Addams Family from 1998.

Ophelia was typically depicted as joyful, upbeat and athletic, although this might not be the case if she makes an appearance in Netflix's Wednesday.

Interestingly, Aunt Ophelia shares a personal history with Morticia's husband, Gomez Addams (Luis Guzman).

In the Addams family tradition of arranged marriages, Gomez was initially set to wed his now sister-in-law, Ophelia.

However, fortune favoured him when she fell for his Cousin Itt, freeing him to pursue his romantic interest in Morticia, with whom he always shared a special bond.

Cousin Itt has yet to make an appearance in Wednesday, but there's potential for his introduction if Ophelia is brought into the series.

Historically, Ophelia had a close relationship with her and Morticia's mother, but this doesn't appear to be the case in Wednesday.

With fans speculating that this enigmatic aunt may make an appearance in part two, only time will reveal how this potentially awkward family reunion unfolds.

Wednesday season two part two premieres on Wednesday, September 3, on Netflix.
