Winston Hoffner

Winston Hoffner is a minor character who died before Jack reached Rapture. In the Welcome to Rapture level, the player encounters a shrine to Hoffner outside a door across from the Kashmir Restaurant. The shrine has a teddy bear, a pep bar and a vase with flowers, and is outside a locked door with Le Marquis D'Epoque sign above it, meaning that Winston Hoffner could be the owner of the store. His picture is also next to an empty casket in the Twilight Fields Funeral Homes in the Medical Pavilion, where a female splicer mourns over the coffin. Two memorial posters to him are placed in the reception area of the Funeral Home. One of the posters has multiple "alterations" put over it, presumably by Dr. Steinman.

Winston Hoffner may be the corpse in Eternal flame or Le Marquis D'Epoque.
