Background

Dr. Nelson Beck is a fertility specialist. He helped Mrs. Slater get pregnant using experimental fertility treatments.


During the events of The House on Sorority Row (1983) played by Christopher Lawrence

When Mrs. Slater goes to Dr. Beck's office she tells him she plans on staying at the sorority house despite his objections. He gives her an emergency alert bracelet. While studying a skull x-ray he notes a further decaying of the cortex and the increased risk of a psychotic break. When Katherine calls Dr. Beck and tells him she found Mrs. Slater's medical alert bracelet, he tells her he will be on his way and advises her to stay in the house. When they find Mrs. Slater's body Dr. Beck injects Katherine with a sedative and uses her as bait to trap Eric. Katherine manages to escape. Dr. Beck is killed when he is searching for Katherine and Eric stabs him in the face with Mrs. Slater's cane, knocking Dr. Beck over the balcony railing.
