Martin Crackhorn was an Umbrella researcher working at the Arklay Mountains facility.

When the t-virus outbreak occurred, his colleagues were infected and later became the 'living dead'. He became infected himself, but despite his vast knowledge, he could only slow down the infection for a few days. Crackhorn later retreated to his office to escape from the Zombies.

In his last hours, he wrote his will; a letter to his wife Alma. In his letter, he told about the events of the t-virus outbreak, the effects of the virus, and that it "curses its victims and makes them seek out and destroy life".

Forgetting Alma more and more, realizing his mind was affected by the virus, he committed suicide, hesitant not to become the 'living dead' like his former colleagues, lifelessly banging on the door.[1]

Days later, when the surviving S.T.A.R.S. Alpha team members were investigating Umbrella facility, they discovered Crackhorn's will in his office. Curiously, his body was not in his office, suggesting that he was resurected as a zombie and left.
