-> '''Portrayed By:''' Corey Sevier and Kathryn Short ([[Series/{{Goosebumps}} TV]]); Mathew Botuchis and Tamara Mello (Audiobook)
The protagonists of ''A Night in Terror Tower''. A brother and sister who are visiting Terror Tower in England, and quickly find out something groundbreaking about themselves.
* BigBrotherBully: Well, Big Sister. Not nearly as blatant as most examples, but Sue occasionally teases her brother for being a wimp.
* DemotedToExtra: The two only appear at the beginning and a few of the endings of ''Return to Terror Tower'', the actual star of which is a FeaturelessProtagonist.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: After Eddie pickpockets Morgreg's stones, they remember the incantation needed to travel to the future again, and bring Morgred with them so they have a caretaker.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: In the TV episode, where they decide to face the execution with dignity.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: A very downplayed example, as the "heart of gold" far outweighs the "jerk" part most of the time, but Sue is kind of mean to Eddie at times, such as mockingly offering to hold his hand when he seems scared. She's still a decent enough person in general.
* FakeMemories: Morgred planted these in their brains, with a new life and parents.
* StickyFingers: Eddie is a master pickpocket, which comes up when he steals the stones Morgred had in order to transport themselves (and Morgred) into the future again.

--> ''"Did you think I wouldn't follow? Did you ''really'' think you could escape from me?"''
A nightmare from the Middle ages, this man is a court executioner who will let nothing stand in the way of his victims... not even time and space.
* AffablyEvil: He isn't above throwing money to peasants for helping him.
* AnAxeToGrind: Though he doesn't carry it unless he's preparing for an execution.
* BadassNormal: Doesn't have any supernatural powers, but is vicious enough to intimidate the local wizard.
* BaldOfEvil: In the book, he's noted as being completely bald.
* BadassCape: He sports a billowing black cape when first seen in the tower.
* BeardOfEvil: Sports one in the TV adaptation, to make him look more intimidating.
* BloodKnight: The lengths he's willing to go to carry out his job are truly frightening.
* CoversAlwaysLie: The hooded executioner on the book cover looks nothing like the version in the story. A justified example, since he's tracking his targets in a modern time period, and thus being decked out in full executioner garb would just draw attention.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Look at his [[AnAxeToGrind cover image]] and compare it to the rest.
* DeathlyDiesIrae: His {{Leitmotif}} in the TV episodes.
* {{Determinator}}: He traveled through time itself just to capture and kill two kids.
* TheDragon: To the unseen evil king.
* TheDreaded: Even the local wizard fears him.
* EvilSoundsDeep: He has a deep, menacing voice.
* EvilWearsBlack: Dresses all in black, even ''before'' putting on the hood.
* KnightOfCerebus: Ruthless, competent, lacking in any humorous or campy quirks and [[spoiler:implied to have ''murdered Eddie and Sue's parents'']].
* NoNonsenseNemesis: Somewhat unusual for these books, he prefers to skip the EvilGloating and finish the job as quick as possible.
* ObviouslyEvil: Particularly in the TV adaptation, with the creepy beard and all-black clothes.
* PunchClockVillain: The king he serves is implied to be an even ''bigger'' monster than he is. Because of this, the people of the kingdom are willing to do anything to save their own skin, so he sees his duty as a necessary evil to get by in his time period. [[spoiler:The GoldenEnding of ''Return to Terror Tower'' reveals that he's BrainwashedAndCrazy]].
* RedEyesTakeWarning: On the cover, anyway.
* TheSociopath: Thinks absolutely nothing of his horrific occupation.
* TokenHuman: Apparently in the 2015 movie. Every other villain has supernatural powers or origins.
* WouldHurtAChild: He's assigned to execute the young protagonists, and doesn't care that they're just kids.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mortertow.png]]
-> '''Portrayed By:''' Diego Matamoros ([[Series/{{Goosebumps}} TV]]); Roy Dotrice (Audiobook)
The royal wizard/sorcerer, who tries to protect the prince and princess by sending them into the future. Eventually [[spoiler: becomes their official guardian in the future, dubbed "Mr. Morgan"]].
* AdaptationalExplanation: In the book, it seems odd that he sent them to the future with incomplete memories and didn't try to come with them. The episode explains that he planned to give them complete memories and go with them, but the Executioner interrupted him.
* AdaptationalHeroism: Somewhat. While he still is basically a good guy in the book and loves Susanna and Edward, he is willing to hold Susanna and Edward captive in the tower to avoid punishment himself, even going as far as to use his magic to keep them at bay. In the tv adaptation, [[TakeMeInstead he offers himself for sacrifice to King Robert in exchange for letting the kids go]].
* DirtyCoward: There are signs of this when Morgred refuses to perform the future spell again because the king will have him executed. However, subverted as he also reasons he won't be able to use his magic to help the rest of Britain if he dies.
* ParentalSubstitute: He poses as Sue and Eddie's uncle and adopts them after they are all brought to the future at the end of ''A Night in Terror Tower.''
* PurpleIsPowerful: Morgred has purple eyes, which warns Sue early on that he is very powerful.
* SupernaturalIsPurple: Morgred wears purple robes because he's a wizard.
!! King Robert
The prince who murdered Sue and Eddie's parents and took over the kingdom.
* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: He is a cruel despot who has people tortured and executed for ''saying negative things about him''. It's no surprise that nobody likes him, and that the only reason why he is able to rule at all is because he has had the entire Royal Court magically {{Brainwashed}}.
* BigBad: Of ''Return to Terror Tower''.
* TheCaligula: He has no compunctions about killing his subjects for the slightest offense against him.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Fail to pay your taxes or say something negative about him? At best you'll be imprisoned and starved. At worst, you'll be tortured and than executed.
* TheEvilPrince: Murdered his own brother and sister in law to acquire the throne, and wants his niece and nephew executed so he can ensure that his rule is permanent.
* EvilUncle: To Sue and Eddie, having had their parents killed and intending to have them killed as well.
* TheGhost: While mentioned frequently in ''A Night in Terror Tower'', he never appeared in it in-person, not even when Eddie and Sue were recaptured by the Executioner. He was not even named, and was more or less a complete non-entity until he finally made [[UnseenNoMore an actual physical appearance]] in ''Return to Terror Tower.''
* GreaterScopeVillain: Of ''A Night in Terror Tower'', as he is not seen and is only mentioned.
* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: One of the most evil Goosebumps villains, and a flesh and blood human.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: He is unnamed in the original book. He is named Robert in ''Return to Terror Tower''.
* WouldHurtAChild: Sentenced his own niece and nephew to execution and orders anyone who can't pay his outlandishly high taxes to be imprisoned, starved, and tortured regardless of age, including infants.
