* BigBad: While she's technically just TheHeavy to Scáthach, the witch rarely gets involved in the actual torment. It's the Butcher who directly leads the colony and instigates the antagonism towards the Miller's.



* DragonInChief: Scáthach is the BigBad, but she rarely gets involved in the actual torment and it's the Butcher who directly leads the colony and instigates the antagonism towards the Miller's.

A ghost who has a pig's head.
head. Originally a Roanoke colonist who was caught stealing from the colony's storerooms, he was forced to wear a pig's head before being burnt alive. Now one of the most active ghosts at Roanoke house.

* [[spoiler:CharacterDeath]]: [[spoiler:He ChainedToFashion: Has manacles with short lengths of chain on his wrists, since he was tied up and burned for stealing.
* ContinuityNod: Though not named 'Piggy Man' in the show itself, the fact he's frequently seen in mirrors recalls the 'Piggy Man' BloodyMary legend mentioned in Season 1. It's later confirmed that the urban legend
is dead, based on a Polk who went on a killing spree in Chicago, who was himself inspired to wear a pig's head because of the 'Piggy Man' ghost of Roanoke.
* DangerInTheBackSeat: Has a propensity for this: it's how
he kills [[spoiler:Diana]] and he's later seen chilling in the back of Dylan's Uber, suggesting he kills the driver in the same way.

Added DiffLines:

* DracoInLeatherPants: Appears far more ambiguous, and with some trace of redeeming qualities, in the re-enactment. Possibly because most of the testimony regarding her came from Matt, whom she enchanted.

He later gets lured in by Scáthach and has sex with her again as she tells him about who she is, which he does remember and recounts to the documentary crew, but leaves her to go help Shelby. He reveals in ''Return to Roanoke'' that [[spoiler:he agreed to do the show in hopes of being reunited with Scáthach]].
