Well, darling, Elya and Stanley are alike in "Holes" because they both have a curse placed on their families. Elya fails to keep his promise to Madame Zeroni, leading to a series of unfortunate events for his descendants, including Stanley. So, in a nutshell, they're both connected by a good old-fashioned family curse.
