Municipality
Mayor Narciso G. Evermore
"What have you been DOING?!"
Voiced by: Alexander Katnik
The mayor of Skid's and Pump's town, who makes it his top priority to have Bob Velseb be taken out, dead or alive.
- Agent Scully: He doesn't believe John's tellings of the cult roaming around town, believing him to just be making excuses.
- Ambiguously Evil: Some cult symbols appear around Mayor Evermore, making it implied that he works for them:
- on his nameplate and flags the main symbol is a cyan diamond; furthermore, in front of his limousine, there is an ornament very similar to the cultists' medallions.
- Despite the fact that John's house was burned down and, as a result, the evidence destroyed, he still accuses him and Jack of being lazy, even threatening to replace them with two other cops (who seem extremely incompetent).
- At one point in "Hollow Sorrows", Dr. Mort Vivifico goes to the morgue to tell Patty that the mayor has ordered the body (implied to be Bob Vesleb's) that she was analyzing to be moved; it must be considered that, subsequently, it disappeared after the events of the episode, probably stolen by the cultists.
- Insane Troll Logic: He accuses John and Jack as being lazy and making up a cult as an excuse. Even when John tells him they burnt down his house, Evermore pins the blame on John for never turning off his coffee maker.
- Jerkass: He is not a humble person at all, as his name provides a complete description of his character; furthermore, when John tells him that his house was set on fire to destroy the evidence of the investigation, he simply blames him and threatens to replace him and Jack.
- Jerkass Has a Point: Despite his arguments boiling down to Insane Troll Logic, he is right that Jack isn't exactly the most competent cop. And for how dismissive he is of the cult, it is understandable that he'd want the police to pursue a long-lasting, and very active Serial Killer that's already killed 8 people recently, over a shady cult that doesn't appear to have done much harm in comparison.
- Large Ham: Almost everything he says, he says by bellowing it at the top of his lungs.John: They burned down my house!
Evermore: Your house is a fire hazard! YOU'LL ALWAYS KEEP THE COFFEE MAKER ON! - Mayor Pain: He seems to be more concerned with his own career and image than anything else.
- Mean Boss: He's ready to replace John and Jack with rookies the first chance he gets, just because they aren't doing exactly what he wants.
- Meaningful Name: His first name given in the newspaper is Narciso, and he's a narcissist.
- Monster Protection Racket: In "Hollow Sorrows", he's shown deliberately instigating a problem for his PR by hiring the Hobomen to demolish a building in exchange for five bottles of beer.
- Narcissist: While the front of his plaque, which faces his clients, says his name, the back of his plaque, which faces him, says "You are the best".
- Never My Fault: He accuses John and Jack of being lazy and incompetent, despite the newspaper he shows saying that there's a lack of police funding. And since he's the mayor...
- No Sympathy: When John tries to convince him of the importance of looking into the cult by telling him they burned his house down, the mayor blames it on him because John always leaves the coffee maker on.
- Punny Name: N. Evermore. Spooky Month revolves around Halloween. His first name, Narciso, also plays into how much of a narcissist he is.
- Shrine to Self: One of the telltale signs that he's a narcissist besides the back of his plaque is one of four self-portraits hanging in his office, being a parody of The Birth of Venus with angels throwing money around his naked body instead of flower petals.
Police Officers
Tropes about both of them
John (left) and Jack (right).
The local cops in town, of which only two are known and named: Sheriff John and his right-hand subordinate Deputy Jack. They patrol around town trying to put a stop to all the criminal activity and other strange occurrences, with mixed results.
- Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: They represent this trope in scenes with the forensic pathologist Patty: John is the redhead (despite having brown hair), Jack is the brunette, and Patty is the blonde.
- Big Damn Heroes: They eventually come to the rescue at the climax of "Tender Treats", putting a stop to Bob Velseb's rampage by killing him before he could eliminate Skid, Pump, Lila, and Jaune.
- Blue Is Heroic: their uniforms are blue and they are trying to discover the secrets of the cult. In "Tender Treats", they try to help Lila look for Skid, and later they shoot Bob after he tries to attack her, the kids, and Jaune. Jack finally kills Bob for good by running him over with the car after he tries to attack them again.
- Cassandra Truth: They are fully aware of the cult's activities going on around town, but the Mayor refuses to see the cultists as a threat compared to the more pressing issue of Bob Velseb's escape, not even after John explains how they burned his house down. Sure enough, Bob and the cult are revealed to be connected.
- A Day in the Limelight: They get increased focus in "Tender Treats", where the mayor threatens to have them fired unless they catch Bob by the end of the night.
- Gleeful and Grumpy Pairing: John is stern and no-nonsense, while Jack is more lighthearted and optimistic.
- Hero of Another Story: The Stinger for each Newgrounds version of the episodes feature an ongoing story arc where they investigate the mysterious cult and their sinister activities.
- Make Sure He's Dead: After incapacitating Bob with a single shot in the back, since he was able to survive getting hit by their car, John asks Jack if he thinks Bob is actually dead. They don't take any chances, and proceed to fire every bullet they have into Bob. And yet, it still isn't enough to kill him.
- Old Cop, Young Cop: Downplayed as their age gap doesn't seem too great, but John is clearly older and more experienced than Jack.
- Police Are Useless: Zig-Zagged. John's competent enough at his job, but Jack is lethally bad at policing and ends up being the sole reason for at least three bad incidents under their names.
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: John is the blue Oni (calm and responsabile) while Jack is red Oni (cheerful and impulsive).
- Those Two Guys: A duo of cops who showed up in "The Stars" and stuck around to investigate strange happenings in town.
- Took a Level in Badass: They're much better at their jobs in "Tender Treats" than in previous episodes, successfully managing to kill Bob after most of their attempts fail.
Sheriff John
"There are weird things going on in this town..."
Voiced by: Chase "CoffinJockey" Corbin
John is an older sheriff, who is trying to investigate a secretive local cult and put a stop to their sinister occult crimes. He's also the father of a little girl, as well as the uncle of Robert, Radford, and Robin.
- Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: Despite his hair being brown, he is the redhead to Patty's blonde and Jack's brunette.
- By-the-Book Cop: Compared to how eccentric Jack is, John is much more composed and lenient, not giving into any temptations to cause harm to criminals unless the situation calls for it, like with Bob.
- Early Installment Character-Design Difference: John's earlier appearances have his hair curls be smaller and greater in number, which grow to be larger and fewer as the series progresses.
- Living Out a Childhood Dream: It's implied that he went to law school because he dreamed of being a police officer as a kid, as he went out for Halloween
as a cop when he was a child. - Manly Facial Hair: John has a very big cop mustache, to the point that his lips are not visible at all; whenever he talks, his mustache squashes and stretches instead, simulating mouth movement.
- Memento MacGuffin: He is seen carrying numerous photos of his daughter.
- Not So Stoic: John is usually gruff and stern, but seeing Bob climb onto the hood of their police cruiser causes him to scream in fear right alongside Skid, Pump, Lila, and Jaune.
- Oral Fixation: John seemingly always needs to have something in his mouth. In present day, he always has a cigarette in his mouth, whereas as a child, he's shown with a lollipop in his mouth.
- Pet the Dog: In "Hollow Sorrows" when Skid and Pump say that they are trying to get in the church to be better people out of fear of being a burden, John reassures them that their parents love them, no matter what.
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: He's the stern, mature blue Oni to Jack's immature, childish red Oni.
- The Sheriff: Of whatever unnamed American town that the series is set in.
- Smoking Is Cool: He's usually seen with a cigarette in his mouth, highlighting how good at his job he is.
- Strong Family Resemblance: Downplayed. He's got the same poofy hair as his two nephews, but his hair is brown instead of blonde, and he doesn't have the mole that his nephews and nieces have. Given that he's their uncle rather than their father, it's likely that his sibling and their spouse are the ones who passed down the hair color and mole instead of his own parents. In contrast, his daughter Hope (currently only appearing in photos) shares the puffy shape and brown color of his hair.
- Tempting Fate: John dismisses Jack's worries about drinking coffee from a used, dirty (thus probably thriving with bacteria) cup, but soon after he starts to sneeze and gets a little sick.
- We Used to Be Friends: A non-antagonistic example. A full panoramic of Lila's childhood photo posted to Twitter reveals that, along with Jaune, Pump's father, and Frank, John and Lila used to be friends as children. In the present day, while they still live in the same town, John and Lila don't act chummy anymore, instead referring to each other with formal terms such as "Ms. Lila".
Deputy Jack
"Maybe you're just stressed! How about we go nuts for donuts?"
Voiced by: ElusiveVA
Jack is a younger deputy, who patrols with John at night and helps him with trying to solve the ongoing occultist conspiracy.
- Afraid of Clowns: Jack ends up emptying his entire pistol magazine into Mr. Clown due to having an intense fear of clowns.
- Big Damn Heroes: It is he who finally kills Bob Vesleb once and for all.
- Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: He is the brunette to Patty's blonde and John's redhead.
- Clueless Deputy: With some of the really dumb and reckless mistakes he's made (like nearly crashing the police car because he stopped to do the Spooky Dance while still driving), it's a real mystery why the Sheriff lets him keep his job.
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Jack isn't too bright, and doesn't take his job as seriously as John does at best, with him being outright incompetent at worst. However, when Bob continues to shrug off their attempts to kill him and climbs onto the hood of their police car, Jack gets pissed, giving a Pre-Mortem One-Liner in response to Bob's Mad Libs Catchphrase before throwing the car in gear and running him over a few more times, knocking him down for good.
- Donut Mess with a Cop: When he thinks John is working himself too hard in the Newgrounds ending of "Deadly Smiles", Jack offers to take him out for donuts. In "Hollow Sorrows" he's seen eating a donut in the patrol car.
- Let's Get Dangerous!: Despite Jack being a massive goofball, after Bob survives the two attempts on his life by him and John, which leaves Skid, Pump, Lila, Jaune, and even John paralyzed in fear, Jack doesn't hold back any longer and repeatedly drives the car over Bob until he's finally dead.
- Manchild: Jack comes off as rather childish at times; from trying to do the Spooky Dance upon hearing that it's Spooky Month while he was supposed to be driving, to his severe clown phobia, to playing a really dumb and immature prank by trying to scare John and Patty into thinking that Bob suddenly came back to life.
- Police Brutality: Referenced in a Noodle Incident where Jack accidentally shot a perp he had at gunpoint, and is pretty beaten up over it. Occurs again when the duo encounter Mr. Clown, whom Jack is deathly afraid of and unloads his pistol's magazine into in intense fear rather than bother trying to apprehend or question him.
- Pre-Mortem One-Liner: He gives one to Bob as an answer to his question before killing him:Bob Vesleb: Do you know how tenderise meat?Jack: I'll show you how!
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: He's the childish, immature red Oni to John's stern, mature blue Oni.
- Sarcasm-Blind: After Patty sarcastically congratulates them for not catching Bob and thus letting eight people get killed, Jack genuinely asks if that was sarcasm. Patty and John just stare at him in response.
- Sanity Ball: He grasps it for just one episode, being "Deadly Smiles". Throughout it, he ends up being much more sensible than John, being the one to tell him that drinking from a dirty cup will get him sick. He also manages to be more proficient at his job than in any episode prior or since, as he keeps the Thieves from escaping when he finds their cell door open while also telling them to take the pillow protectors off of their heads, and he places the Happy Fella doll under Kevin's care knowing that he's the one who interacts with kids in the town the most.
- Too Dumb to Live: Jack is so excited to hear that it's Spooky Month from the Thieves they arrested that he immediately begins to Spooky Dance — letting go of the steering wheel and promptly spiraling the car full of people out of control. Fortunately for all four people in the vehicle, the only casualty was Ooga Booga (who was non-fatally injured after being hit by the car).
- What the Hell, Hero?: In the Newgrounds ending of "Tender Treats", Jack props up Bob's corpse to prank John and Patty into thinking he had somehow survived his Rasputinian Death. John and Patty justifiably chew him out for it, John especially so.
Hospital
Patricia "Patty" Azure
"It's not Spooky Month... it's June."
Click to see her unmasked.
Voiced by: Abigail Adair ("Unwanted Guest"), Monica "l0litsmonica" Franco ("Tender Treats" onwards)
A forensic pathologist who works at the hospital morgue.
- Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: She is the blonde to Jack's brunette and John's redhead.
- Blue Is Heroic: her working clothes are blue/light blue and she works with the police to stop the cult; fittingly enough, her surname is a reference to the color of the same name (Azure).
- Deadpan Snarker: In "Tender Treats", she sarcastically compliments John and Jack on their track record as police officers when she's called in by the mayor.
- Demonic Possession: In "Hollow Sorrows", she becomes the next victim who get possessed by Moloch. Unlike Dexter however, she gets better with the help of Father Gregor.
- Dressed to Heal: She's always seen wearing her blue surgical garbs, even when she's not currently working in the hospital.
- Expressive Mask: The lines on her face mask function as her mouth, moving as she speaks.
- Meaningful Name: or surname, in her case, that is "Azure": being is a forensic pathologist, she wears most of the time a light blue scrubs along Blue cap, gloves and mask.
- Not So Above It All: Although she is one of the few down-to-earth characters, she has no qualms about telling Father Gregor to obey Moloch in handing him Skid and Pump to appease his wrath.
- Not So Stoic: She breaks her usual deadpan personality when she briefly expresses intense fear upon sensing that all the corpses in the morgue have suddenly came back to life and started dancing to the beat of "Thriller", before quickly regaining her composure and telling them that it's not Spooky Month; in "Hollow Sorrows" she shows her fear again when she turns and sees Moloch standing behind her. Later, after having Moloch exorcised from her body, she boldly proclaims that she needs to own a gun legally as reason to why she wants to become a cop.
- Only Sane Woman: She's the one person in "Unwanted Guest" to not put up with Skid's and Pump's Spooky Month shenanigans, telling the boys (and the dancing zombies) that it's June. In "Tender Treats", she's also shown to be the most level-headed person in the room when she's talking with John, Jack, and Evermore.
- The Stoic: Unlike other characters, she's no Large Ham and generally has a rather calm, quiet demeanor.
- Take This Job and Shove It: After facing possession during the events of "Hollow Sorrows", she marches up to John and Jack and declares her intent to leave her job as a mortician and become a cop alongside them to have access to a gun legally.
- True Blue Femininity: She always wear blue/light blue scrubs, gloves, cap and mask; her last name is also "Azure".
- What the Hell, Hero?: Father Gregor gives her one after she tells him to deliver Skid and Pump to Moloch:
- Patty: Give him the children.
Father Gregor: How dare you let the demon go trought your head!?
- Women Are Wiser: When paired with John and Jack, though John is relatively competent, she seems to be smarter than both of them. She manages to estimate how many bodies Bob has claimed, complete with her snarking at the two cops, and in the Newgrounds ending of "Tender Treats", she's the first one to catch on to Jack playing a prank with Bob's corpse and calls him out for it.
- Youthful Freckles: After unmasking herself, she's revealed to have these, hidden just as well as her repressed rage under her stoicism.
Dr. Mort Vivifico
"Hey! This is a restricted area!"
Voiced by: P.M. Seymour
A stern doctor who works at the hospital.
- Ambiguously Evil: He is shown receiving a call from Ignacio after the latter's encounter with Father Gregor, suggesting they both may have a connection to the Cult as they later invade his church.
- Punny Name: His name is derived from mortician and vivisection.
Church
Father Gregor Raguel
"You need behave yourselves in the eyes of the Lord. I will be your guide, and I know... your parents would be proud of you."
Voiced by: P.M. Seymour
An irritable priest who does not appreciate Halloween due to believing it to be a time when Satan's followers roam freely around the town; especially trick-or-treating children. He later becomes The Mentor to Skid and Pump and tries to have them rehabilitated for their mischief.
- Ascended Extra: He made his debut in "Tender Treats" in a seconds long joke during a montage. After this, he became a central character in "Hollow Sorrows".
- Badass Preacher: As Moloch shows that he's really, really no slouch when angry, Gregor is the only one able to fight him off, to the point that he sends Moloch running after he exhumes him from Patty's body. The only reason he doesn't just banish him then and there is because Skid and Pump interrupted the ritual, and once he corners Moloch in the attic without the two to cause any more trouble he kills him with ease.
- Bald Head of Toughness: He is an elderly, bald priest with a high physical resistance to tiredness and pain, as well as being capable of exorcising demons from people's body with little difficulty. It is he who ultimately defeats Moloch by banishing him to Hell after finally cornering him in Skid's attic.
- Big Good: He both serves as Skid and Pump's guide down the path of behaving, as well as the one to remove Moloch from the earthly realm and save the town from his wrath.
- Christianity is Catholic: Gregor is a priest with the nickname "Father" and confirms to Skid and Pump that, despite this, he has no children: justified because, in real life, Catholic priests (along deacons, nuns, bishops and popes) are prohibited from having romantic relationships and getting married due to the vow of celibacy imposed by the Church.
- Cool Old Guy: He manages to put up an impressive exorcism against Moloch.
- A Day in the Limelight: The episode "Hollow Sorrows" mostly focuses on him leading Skid and Pump around town to get forgiveness for their perceived sins and eventually encountering Moloch, which ends with his abduction and sacrificed to Eyes by the cult.
- Determinator: No matter how much Moloch runs away, wounds him, or disarms him from his cross: Gregor will chase him and fight until he succeeds in banishing him to Hell.
- Early-Bird Cameo: he made his first appearance in "Tender Treats", and later became an important character in the following episode "Hollow Sorrows".
- The Fundamentalist: He's got no love for Halloween, which he demonstrates by throwing boiling-hot Holy Water at a trick-or-treater and scaring the rest of the kids away, calling them "devil-worshipping fiends". In "Hollow Sorrows" he lets up slightly, though, as he instead tries to guide Skid and Pump into apologizing for the trouble they've caused, although he still calls their costumes demonic.
- Good Is Not Nice: Though he gives sound behavior guidance towards Skid and Pump and successfully manages to defeat Moloch, he's also rather curmudgeonly and doesn't mince any words when he finds a person, such as Lila, to be flawed.
- Good Shepherd: Although a rather strict person, Gregor is ultimately a well-intentioned priest, genuinely interested in the well-being of those who need help: in his first scene in "Hollow Sorrows" he offers comfort to Michelle Erotoph and tells her that he will pray for Dexter; later he spends the entire episode mentoring Skid and Pump, protecting them from harm and trying to help them become more aware of the consequences of their destructive actions.
- Jerkass Has a Point: He's not a particularly amicable gentleman, but he does raise a valid point about how Lila doesn't monitor her son as much as she should.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He is a cranky, fundamentalist priest, but shows genuine concern for Skid and Pump, sympathizing with them over their parents' absence and offering them guidance in being better, less destructive people. He also offers comfort to Michelle Erotoph and tells her that he will pray for her son Dexter.
- Made of Iron: Despite being an elderly priest, Father Gregor demonstrates strong physical resistance:
- He's able to run as fast as the children, stopping a few times to catch his breath.
- Despite being bitten on the leg by the possessed Pump and being injured on the arm, he limps up to Skid's attic managing to exorcise Moloch while standing, and he later returns to his church walking with no problems.
- When the cult ambushes him and hits him in the head with a brick, he simply falls unconscious instead of taking any major damage.
- Meaningful Name: Gregor's surname, Raguel, is also the name of an archangel from Judaic tradition. The angel Raguel is known for keeping fallen angels and demons in check and sending them back to Hell, and fittingly, Gregor Raguel's breakout role in "Hollow Sorrows" is focused on him trying to exorcise and kill the demon Moloch.
- The Mentor: Tries to be one to Skid and Pump when he understands neither have present parent figures in their lives, with mixed results.
- Mentor Occupational Hazard: After spending "Hollow Sorrows" serving as a guide to Skid and Pump, he's abducted and sacrificed to The Eyes by the cult.
- Mistaken for Pedophile: Played with. Kevin insinuates this as the reason why an old man would hang out with two children. Gregor ends up taking offense to this.
- No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: After successfully protecting both Skid and Pump and defeating the evil Moloch once and for all, the poor guy is "rewarded" by getting abducted and sacrificed to The Eyes by the cult.
- Not So Above It All: Despite being a strict priest, even he can't resist doing the Spooky Dance with the boys.
- Older Sidekick: The elderly priest accompanies the young Skid and Pump during "Hollow Sorrows", playing second fiddle to their antics as he tries to shape them up.
- Papa Wolf: While he's of course only named "Father" in title due to being a priest, he ironically ends up becoming the closest thing to a true father that Skid and Pump never truly had in their lives. Throughout "Hollow Sorrows", he does his best to protect and foster both of the kids as much as he possibly can and even ends up scolding Lila for her neglectful and irresponsible parenting.
- Parental Substitute: Throughout "Hollow Sorrows" he almost takes on the role of a parental figure towards Skid and Pump.
- Pet the Dog: He decides to become a mentor to Skid and Pump to due genuinely pitying them for a lack of present parental figures. And although he's at first livid that Skid and Pump are responsible for Moloch, he doesn't get angry with them when try to intervene with his exorcism or when they grieve over a petrified Moloch.
- "The Reason You Suck" Speech: He gives a harsh one to Lila for leaving Skid unattended to drink.
- Suddenly Shouting:
- When Moloch tries to trick him with visions of Dexter and Michelle Erotoph to convince him to Give him Skid and Pump, Gregor reacts by yelling at him to stay silent and throwing a bottle of holy water on him:Father Gregor: Silence...
Dexter: Give him the children, Father...
Michelle: Help my son, Father Gregor... give him the children.
—->Father Gregor: SILENCE! - When Skid and Pump confess that they were the ones who summoned Moloch, he doesn't take it well:Father Gregor: You two... brought a demon to this realm... You have drowned this town in sin... AND THINK IT'S A GAME?!
- When Moloch tries to trick him with visions of Dexter and Michelle Erotoph to convince him to Give him Skid and Pump, Gregor reacts by yelling at him to stay silent and throwing a bottle of holy water on him:
- Tap on the Head: One cult member knocks him out cold with a brick in the back of the head.
- Uncertain Doom: "Hollow Sorrows" ends with Gregor hypnotized and at the mercy of The Eyes of the Universe. Whether he was sacrificed or merely brainwashed is unclear.
- Walk the Plank: Or rather forced to walk into the transdimensional portal. As a cultist pulls out a knife, Father Gregor knows he has no choice but to walk forward.
- What the Hell, Hero?:
- He gives one to Patty after she tells him to deliver Skid and Pump to Moloch:Patty: Give him the children.
Father Gregor: How dare you let the demon go trought your head!? - He later gives one also to Skid and Pump when they say that they summoned Moloch and later he manager to escape from the attic:Father Gregor: How... do you know... his name?
Skid: We brought him here! But then he escaped.
Pump: He didn't.
Skid: What?
Gregor: You two... brought a demon to this realm... You have drowned this town in sin... AND THINK IT'S A GAME?!
- He gives one to Patty after she tells him to deliver Skid and Pump to Moloch:
- Would Hurt a Child: Because he perceives trick-or-treaters as devil worshippers, he's willing to scald a child dressed as a scarecrow with a bucket of boiling-hot Holy Water.
Other Neighbors and Townsfolk
Ooga Booga
"OOGA BOOGA!"
Voiced by: David "Sr. Pelo" Cazares
A loud, invasive and terrifying(?) hag whose appearance is always followed by a horrifying(?) Jump Scare that is in no way old and overus-OOGA BOOGA!
- Ambiguously Human: It's left unclear if she's an actual monster, or just an actress always in full costume.
- Ambiguously Related: A movie Lila watches in "Hollow Sorrows" features a possessed woman with a similar complexion to the Ooga Booga witch, but not her Trollface-shaped head or her propensity to Ooga Booga anybody, so it's unclear if it is the Ooga Booga witch or a similar looking character.
- Animation Bump: At the YouTube ending of "Deadly Smiles" we get to see her animated at the same level as everyone else as she tries to scare the viewer with a Happy Fella. And then she goes right back to Limited Animation when trying to do a last Jump Scare on the viewer when using the doll failed.
- Bandage Mummy: After getting hit by a car in "The Stars", she appears briefly in "Unwanted Guest" in the hospital and covered in bandages, vibrating in place as she mutters out muffled ooga boogas within.
- Character Catchphrase: Two words: OOGA BOOGA!
- Does Not Like Spam: She's shown in The Stinger of "Tender Treats" rummaging around a bag of candy for, as she describes it, "sugar", but is disgusted when she pulls out a candy apple.
- The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You: Her Screamer Prank is just as much directed for the viewers as it is for her victims in the shorts.
- Insane Proprietor: She's the one advertising Sr. Pelo's Spooky Month merchandise, which goes as well as you'd expect.Ooga Booga: BETTER GET 'EM! GET 'EM NOW! (hysterical laughter) PLEASE, PLEASE GET 'EM, I NEED IT! I NEED IT N- OOGA BOOGA! (more laughter)
- Jump Scare: Pretty much her M.O. Later on, she starts distracting the viewer with other topics before she jumps them- OOGA BOOGA! HAHAHA YOU JUST GOT SPOOKED!
- Overused excessively throughout "It's spooky month". Ooga Booga somehow always appears either in person, on the phone, in a film, and in a video game to scream OOGA BOOGA!.
- She returns in the Newgrounds post-credits ending scene for "The Stars", trying to scare the cops in a police car as they're barreling right towards her, with predictable results.
- She returns in HD glory for the YouTube ending of "Unwanted Guest", jumpscaring after the credits are done rolling.
- She appears again for the YouTube credits of "Deadly Smiles", trying to jumpscare the viewer with a Happy Fella doll, but gets freaked out when it talks, only to then use that as an opportunity to give a real jumpscare.
- She makes another return after the YouTube credits of "Tender Treats", asking the viewer "OOGA or sugar", then jumpscaring the viewer when she pulls out an apple on a stick.
- She once again returns in the middle of the YouTube credits of "Hollow Sorrows," hiding among the rest of the characters who possessed by Moloch before turning to the viewer and jumpscaring them, noting that she can now be anywhere, any time.
- Large Ham: Given her shticks, she is very, very loud, even when talking normally.
- Limited Animation: Before "Deadly Smiles", this was the case for her. Outside of moving her mouth and eyes slightly during her close-ups, she had next to no other animation except for a single frame where she makes a mocking expression over how (supposedly) scared the viewer was by her Jump Scare. And when we see the rest of her, she just wiggled her fingers about.
- Non-Standard Character Design: She's drawn with a far more detailed face, including a visible nose and bottom lip, to increase her ugliness and scare factor.
- No Indoor Voice: Kind of hard to be speaking at any other volume when most of what you say is OOGA BOOGA!
- Overused Running Gag: She's a parody of the overuse of jumpscares, so she gets a ton of mileage in the first short and gets to show up every now and again to keep it going.
- Real After All: There's no real implication she's much more than a character in a movie, but "The Stars" has John and Jack accidentally hit her with their car, confirming that she is indeed real in the Spooky Month universe.
- Show Within a Show: The star of Really Spooky - The Ooga Booga, which played in theaters and went to cassette soon after. Take a guess what it's about.
- Shout-Out: She looks a lot like Regan MacNeil and her infamous Nightmare Face used in many Screamer Pranks, only warped into a dumb grin modeled after the trollface. And her Jump Scare in the middle of the credits for "Hollow Sorrows" is a reference to the infamous "Ghost Sighting" Screamer Prank from the way she crawls rapidly towards the camera.
- Take That!: Towards poorly done and overused jump scares. Ooga Booga's appearance seems strongly inspired from the horror film, The Exorcist, as she resembles Regan post-possession. Her character is likely inspired by the early 2000s' trend of using images of Regan in various videos and games to jumpscare an unsuspecting viewer.
- Too Dumb to Live: In the Newgrounds ending of "The Stars", she thought standing in the middle of a dark road in the dead of night with no lights whatsoever to try performing her Screamer Prank on incoming cars would be a good idea. Sure enough, Jack and John accidentally run her over and she's a Bandage Mummy at the hospital in the next short. In the second volley of official merch, she does this again, suddenly appearing in front of Frank's moving van to buy some shirts and getting smashed against the windshield for her enthusiasm.
- Troll: She only seems to frighten people because it amuses her. Fitting considering one half of her inspiration.
- Verbal Tic: Just screaming OOGA BOOGA is one for her, it's practically the only thing she says, and she can barely get a word in otherwise.
Lucky
Voiced by: David "Sr. Pelo" Cazares
A young kid that resides in Skid and Pump's neighborhood.
- All There in the Script: Initially, he was only ever referred to as "kid", even in the character sheets for "The Stars". While a doodle by Sr. Pelo◊ has the word "Lucky" next to him, Pelo would confirm in a later stream that it is indeed his canon name.
- Butt-Monkey: Neither of his two appearances are very kind to him: in the first, he's drugged and presumably kidnapped by Frank, and in the second, he gets a face full of scalding-hot Holy Water courtesy of Father Gregor. In "Hollow Sorrows", he is about to be captured by Frank again, but Moloch crushes him underfoot before he can.
- Ironic Name: Despite his name, Lucky solely appears to suffer random misfortunes in short gags.
Kevin
"What do you kids want?"
Voiced by: ElusiveVA
An irritable cashier at the Candy Club. Skid and Pump visit him often to pick up some candy for their Spooky Months, with all the trouble that entails.
- Affectionate Nickname: Radford sometimes calls him "Kevs" to show how close they are.
- Ambiguously Gay: There is graffiti in the bathroom that says "Kevin x Streber", which hints that Kevin might be (or may have been) in a relationship with Streber. Pelo's said that Kevin "will go out with anyone", implying that he is pansexual.
- Angry Animalistic Growl: Lets out one of these in both "Deadly Smiles" and "Tender Treats", the former upon realizing that the Happy Fella that attacked them belonged to Skid and Pump, and the latter after he, Skid, and Pump escape from Bob.
- An easier-to-miss one comes near the beginning of "Hollow Sorrows" as he hands two candy jars from the trampled stack to Skid and Pump.
- Butt-Monkey: Every time he's focused on in the shorts, nothing ever goes right for him.
- In "The Stars", the boys visit him for three candy cans for the night. Confused, he asks who the third can is for, to which the Eyes of the Universe enters the store and his mind is presumably broken.
- In "Unwanted Guest", Pump hands him the Candy Dealer's package and walks away before he can do anything about the suspicious contraband. Just his luck for two cops to enter the store, he accidentally aggravates both of them, and he's left a sweating and panicking mess thinking he's about to be busted for drug possession. He only gets a short-lived break when the package turns out to just be sugar and the cops leave, as two criminals soon arrive to hold him up at gunpoint and take the sugar from him.
- Gets attacked by Dexter in "Deadly Smiles", himself being a Butt-Monkey of his own. Kevin is also the only person Dexter is able to successfully harm, stabbing him in the leg before Kevin throws him out into the back alley.
- He tries to shoo Skid and Pump out of the Candy Club in "Tender Treats", noting how they always bring him trouble, but as soon as he notices Bob following them, he tries to set up a marble trap with gumballs, only to fall victim to his own trap. If the "Kevin x Streber" graffiti in the bathroom is to be taken seriously, then his boyfriend, or at least a good friend, was attacked and lost an arm to the same killer that tried to attack him and the kids.
- Not only does "Hollow Sorrows" have Skid and Pump trample a stack he worked on presumably for a long time, but he also gets possessed by Moloch later on, though thankfully Radford exorcizes him with the holy water.
- The Chew Toy: Whenever he has to deal with Skid and Pump's antics, nothing goes right for him. So much so that he decide to kick them out immediately in "Tender Treats" when they visit the store... but the problem comes to him anyway. Even without the kids around, he gets chewed by his surroundings regardless, like with Carmen insulting him.
- Child Hater: While generally doesn't like kids who's constantly stealing his candies, he absolutely loathes Skid and Pump because of all the troubles they caused with each of their visit to the Candy Club. It's a bit downplayed since he still cares enough toward the two despite the suffering he has to deal with because of them.
- Cop Hater: Even before he becomes terrified of being arrested by John and Jack, Kevin doesn't seem to have a high opinion of law enforcement, snarking at how "surprising" it is for a cop to shoot someone after overhearing John reassure Jack about a perp he accidentally shot.
- Curse Cut Short: In "Hollow Sorrows", after being exorcised by Radford, Kevin coughs while muttering a swear word.Kevin: F(COUGH COUGH)ing kids.
- A Day in the Limelight: He gets an extended sequence in "Unwanted Guest" with Skid, Pump, and the cops as he's forced to handle the Candy Dealer's package.
- Demonic Possession: Moloch briefly gets his hands on him during the climactic chase of "Hollow Sorrows", but he is exorcised just as quickly by Radford and the bottle of holy water Gregor left for him.
- Hate at First Sight: Though he doesn't say anything, he shows a strong sense of animosity towards Carmen when they first meet. He rolls his eyes when he sees her force two kids to walk around her, and when Carmen thinks he's flirting with her and acts disgusted, Kevin's response is to put on an obviously fake smile with an irritated look on his face.
- Hoist by His Own Petard: He tries to set up a marble trap with gumballs to trip Bob, but it doesn't work, and Kevin ends up tripping on his own trap shortly afterwards.
- Idiot Hair: from various sketches by Pelo it has been confirmed that, under the cap, Kevin has an ahoge.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: As exasperated as he is with dealing with the boys, he feels bad enough about seeing them miserable from being beaten up and not getting their candy that he begrudgingly gives them chocolate bars in "Unwanted Guest". Even when he's trying to shoo Skid and Pump out of the store in "Tender Treats", Kevin switches to trying to protect the two the moment he notices Bob. After making him nervous in "Hollow Sorrows", Kevin is shocked when Skid and Pump hand him a large wad of cash for all the unpaid candy, with him politely declining and saying that they owe him nothing; subsequently he becomes worried when he sees Father Gregor arrive and asks him what he is doing with two children, mistakenly thinking that he's a pedophile.
- Leitmotif: Starting in "Deadly Smiles" Kevin has "Sweet & Sour", a simple piano and bell melody reminiscent of waiting room music. In "Tender Treats" he has "Sweet & Scary", which is a Halloween themed version of the former and fittingly more tense giving Kevin's aggravation with Skid and Pump.
- Persona Non Grata: After three episodes of having to put up with them being Walking Disaster Areas, he outright forbids Skid and Pump from visiting the Candy Club any longer in "Tender Treats". They manage to get in anyway, much to his frustration.
- Rage Breaking Point: In "Tender Treats", he wastes no time shooing Skid and Pump away after each of their visits brings him trouble... right as he notices Bob outside.
- Real Men Wear Pink: Kevin is a young man who works in a candy store, wearing mostly white clothes with shades of pink and pastel blue; he has been shown to wear pink sweaters and t-shirts when not on his work shift.
- Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: After insulting them out loud, Kevin becomes terrified by John and Jack, trying to shoo them along every time they cross paths.
- Yank the Dog's Chain: Whenever Kevin gets a moment of peace or even feeling better in general, there's always something that robs it away afterward. Poor guy just can't catch a break.
- In "Unwanted Guest", he's relieved that he doesn't have to face jail after John and Jack inspecting the "sugar" on his desk... until he suddenly robbed by the thieves who demands said "sugar" right afterward.
- In "Deadly Smiles", he's touched by Skid and Pump taking care of his wound despite not being much, that is until they asked about their missing Happy Fella and realized who owns the doll that attacked him earlier, which made him enraged toward the duo once more.
- In "Hollow Sorrows", despite having to deal with Skid and Pump's antics yet again early on, things seem to be looking up for him with Radford volunteering to help him out during his shift, Skid and Pump being willing to pay back all the free candy he gave them over the years and Radford blessing the candy shop with the holy water making a lot of costumers come in... but then he gets possessed by Moloch, and the resulting exorcism leaves some serious property damage to the shop.
Richard "Rick" Hedony
"i sold some kids beer because i'm tired of breathing."
Voiced by: Zach Fuller
A gloomy man who takes various jobs around town as his lack of care keeps getting him fired.
- all lowercase letters: Starting in "Deadly Smiles", Rick's dialogue is typed in lowercase as a subtitle gag, referencing how done with life he is. Everyone else has proper capitalization.
- Character Catchphrase: "i quit."
- Death Seeker: Played for Laughs. When Pump asks why he was working at the movie theater instead of the mall, Rick deadpans that he sold alcohol to some minors because he was "tired of breathing".
- The Eeyore: The gist of his character is that he's done with life, barely caring about anything around him and casually admitting he wants to die. His humor is thus derived from him being paired with characters that are far more lively and expressive, like Radford and Kevin.
- Ironic Name: His last name, Hedony, is derived from hedonism. However, he's anything but hedonistic, being a lethargic Death Seeker.
- New Job as the Plot Demands: Worked as a cashier at Gensomooru in "Unwanted Guest" and is a movie attendant at the theater in "Deadly Smiles". This is lampshaded when Pump asks why Rick was at the theater and not the mall, to which he responds he got fired because he sold kids beer. When Radford tells him he's going to get in trouble for letting two kids see a horror movie, Rick casually removes his name tag and places it on the counter, implying this happens often. If these pictures are considered canon, he got a job at the post office after getting fired from the theatre. In "Tender Treats", he's working at the Candy Club with Kevin, only to quit when he sees Bob Velseb enter the place with very malicious intent. In "Hollow Sorrows", he's the Mayor's cab driver, then quits after Moloch attacks the car.
- Not So Stoic: The only time he changes expression is in "Tender Treats", when he slightly frowns in reaction to Carmen ordering him and Kevin to hurry up with her order in a rude way. In "Hollow Sorrows" he also masks his dislike for Mayor Evermore's bossy manners much less by frowning more.
- Running Gag: Expect him to quit every single new job that he gets in every single episode that he appears in.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: When he lets Skid and Pump see a scary movie in "Deadly Smiles", when he sees Bob infiltrate the Candy Club in "Tender Treats" and when Moloch wrecks Evermore's limo in "Hollow Sorrows", he responds by quitting his job.
- The Stoic: He never expresses any emotions beyond dull apathy, always speaking with a constant deadpan monotone.
The "Hobomen"
"I love your piss, dude!"
Voiced by: JohnnyUtah
A couple of homeless men that live behind the movie theater. They are parodies of Captain and Steve from Tankmen.
- Crazy Homeless People: Both of them are eccentric hobos who are not particularly lucid.
- Demoted to Extra: They play a semi-important role in "Deadly Smiles", pointing out to Skid and Pump where the Happy Fella doll went. In "Tender Treats", however, they're little more than a Funny Background Event with no dialogue whatsoever. They're given a slightly more prominent, but still very minor speaking role in "Hollow Sorrows" where the Mayor tries making a deal with them.
- Expy: They're based on Captain and Steve, the protagonists of another Newgrounds cartoon called Tankmen. They even have the exact same voice actor.
- I Ate WHAT?!: Subverted. It's made abundantly clear that the "booze" is "Steve"'s piss, but then the "Captain" reveals that he knew it was piss all along, and still loved it, anyway.
- Kissing Under the Influence: The last that's seen of them in "Deadly Smiles" is the two passionately making out, still as hammered as they were from the start. When Robert is asking Skid and Pump if he could have some of their candy for his sister in "Tender Treats", they're seen in the background kissing each other again.
- No Name Given: They're not called by any names besides the "Hobomen" in the credits. For ease of writing, this page refers to them by the names of their inspirations, Captain and Steve.
- Snacksploitation: In "Tender Treats", the two are seen huddled around a popcorn machine, seemingly making their own popcorn to bring into the movie theater they're outside of.
- Straight Gay: There are no obvious signs that they have homosexual feelings for each other until they start kissing.
- Toilet Humour: In "Deadly Smiles", they're introduced with one asking the other for more "booze". The booze turns out to be piss, which doesn't faze the "Captain" in the slightest as he downs it in one fell swoop.
"Costume Bob"
"I just wanted to tell you kids are stealing candy!"
Voiced by: Brandon Winckler
An unnamed young man in his late teens, whose unfortunate choice of Halloween costume results in him being mistaken for Bob Velseb at least twice.
- Ambiguous Innocence: Did he truly dress up in the same exact costume as Bob by sheer coincidence, or did he dress up as an active serial killer for a tasteless gag?
- Good Samaritan: As soon as he spots some kids stealing candy from the Candy Club, his first immediate response is to go around back and report them to Kevin.
- Identical Stranger: Aside from his slim figure and visible ears, his outfit is identical to that of Bob's, which causes him to be mistaken for him multiple times.
- Mistaken Identity: Due to wearing a devil mask and red sweater that looks a lot like Bob's outfit, Lila and later Kevin think that he's actually Bob at first, and he gets attacked by both of them for it.
- No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Though he does the right thing in reporting a candy theft that's going on, he gets pelted with gumballs for it because Kevin mistook him for Bob.
- No Name Given: His name is never stated, and he is only referred to as "Costume Bob" in the credits and "Bob?" in the subtitles.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: During the climactic scene where John and Jack fight with Bob, he watches in shock as the two cops unload their pistols into the cannibal. Not wanting to be shot next in confusion, he immediately runs like hell away from the carnage.
- Trauma Conga Line: Him being confused with Bob causes him to go through a lot with little reason: in one night, Lila bludgeons him with her construction ruler, Kevin assaults him with gumballs, and he's left traumatized at the sight of someone dressed like him being shot to death repeatedly.
Ignacio
"You will die one day. And I will personally CREMATE YOUR BODIES!"
Voiced by: Brandon Winckler
A cranky and reclusive neighbor in Skid's and Pump's neighborhood who appears to have been badly injured.
- Ambiguously Evil: A medallion similar to Bob's can be seen under his collar in one shot of "Hollow Sorrows", he owns a gun despite the ban in town, and he angrily calls in Father Gregor to a doctor for an unknown reason the same night he is kidnapped by the Cult.
- In his house, a box of matches and partially burned photos of John's family can be seen on a table next to his gun.
- Also in the same scene Ignacio can be seen in a photo with another man (probably Skid's father due to his clothes) holding a plate with a cake on top topped with a lit fuse instead of a candle.
- Ax-Crazy: Threatens to personally cremate Skid and Pump's bodies (once they die) the third time they knock on his door, along with Laughing Mad.
- Cranky Neighbor: A grouchy man who's plastered keep out signs and barbed wire on his property, and his introduction in "Tender Treats" shows he doesn't live that far from Skid and Lila.
- Conditioned to Accept Horror: Skid's and Pump's Nightmare Faces are a No-Sell on him, as he looks more annoyed with it than anything. Later on, when Moloch is running from Father Gregor, he wordlessly shoots the demon in the face when he runs up to him, successfully scaring him off.
- Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: He ends up damaging Moloch, a demon from Hell, with just a single gunshot.
- Door Slam of Rage: He does to Skid and Pump in "Hollow Sorrows" every time they try to apologize to him. He later slams the door when Gregor begins to chastise him for yelling at the boys.
- Hair-Trigger Temper: He's already never in a good mood, but the first thing he does when Skid and Pump break his door with a hammer is throw his door open and yell at them at the top of his lungs.
- Jerkass: A very, very unpleasant man who is unwilling to even accept apologies that he doesn't even deserve in the first place and even threatens children with body cremation.
- Jerkass Has a Point: Is hostile to Skid and Pump and initially refuses to give them candy, but that's because they smashed a hole through his door, which anyone would be understandably upset about.
- Meaningful Name: His name, Ignacio, means "born of fire"; following this logic it is possible that he is the pyromaniac cultist who set fire to John's house.
- Pet the Dog: Although he's none too pleased about it, he does reluctantly give Skid and Pump candy to get them to leave after they try to unsuccessfully scare him with a Nightmare Face.
- Sarashi: The entire right side of his body, including his hand, is wrapped in bandages, which implies that he was somehow horribly disfigured.
- Tranquil Fury: Once Skid and Pump say "trick-or-treat", he calmly questions them with a plastered-on smile, before yelling at them about how they broke his door.
- Unusually Uninteresting Sight: He doesn't look the least bit phased when Moloch, a literal demon, comes across him and even casually pulls out a gun and just shoots Moloch in the face with zero fear.
- Would Hurt a Child: He openly threatens Skid and Pump by saying that, once they are dead, he will personally cremate their bodies. If you support the theory that he was the arsonist cultist, it's possible that he killed John's daughter, Hope, when he started the fire in his house to hide the evidence.
Streber
"Ah! Welcome, to the hauntiest of houses, gentlemen."
Voiced by: Gabe "Gamerduck" Velez ("Tender Treats" and "Streber's Rehearsal"), Corey Wilder
A man dressed as a vampire who works as a greeter for a haunted house attraction in town. He ends up being one of Bob's victims.
- Ambiguously Gay: There is graffiti in the bathroom that says "Kevin x Streber", which hints that Streber might be (or may have been) in a relationship with Kevin.
- An Arm and a Leg: Bob ripped off one of Streber's arms while attacking him, as later is seen snacking on meat from an arm bone while walking through the haunted house. In "Hollow Sorrows", Streber appears with a bandaged stump.
- Break the Cutie: Streber is a cheerful, fun-loving guy who wants nothing more than to entertain guests at his haunted house, only to be brutally maimed and partially eaten by Bob. Although he survived, he's now missing an arm and likely traumatized for the rest of his life.
- A Day in the Limelight: Ended up receiving his own short focused on him after his appearance in "Tender Treats", owing to his immense popularity within the fandom after the episode released.
- Gory Discretion Shot: The only thing the audience sees of Streber after Bob's done with him is a shadowed lump on the floor and a single eye shaking in terror.
- Idiot Hair: He has a subtle ahoge, to underline his cheerful and extravagant personality.
- Keet: He's always in a good mood and has a larger-than-life personality, even when Bob is getting ready to kill him.
- Leitmotif: "Streber's Rehearsal" Gives Streber his own theme, "A 'Real' Vampire", a song that begins with a dramatic flourish before settling down into a jaunty, spooky tune.
- Meaningful Name: His name is the German word for "nerd", fitting his dorky and enthusiastic personality.
- Missing Reflection: He uses a mirror to prove that he is a "real" vampire, as he goes missing when Skid and Pump look into it. The trick is that the inside of his cape is green, which Pump catches onto when the stem on his pumpkin mask also goes missing.
- Nice Character, Mean Actor: Downplayed. He plays an enthusiastic and cheerful vampire for the haunted house; out of character he retains this attitude, but "Streber's Rehearsal" shows that he's also bossy and quite cocky.
- Nice Guy: He's very cheerful and friendly to the haunted house guests, even Bob up until he realizes too late that he's a malicious thug.
- Prima Donna Director: "Streber's Rehearsal" shows him to be melodramatically serious about his presentation, and being rather self-important over how much effort he puts into his productions.
- Prophecy Twist: In the short "Streber's Rehearsal" Streber complains about how his arm is bothering him from the tiredness of working in the haunted house, hoping that it will fall: this all sadly turns out to be true as he is later mutilated by Bob Vesleb, with his arm ripped and eaten.
- Sacrificial Lamb: Other than a short gag about chroma keying, his only purpose is to show how dangerous Bob is compared to previous villains by being badly brutalized and partially eaten by him.
- Uncertain Doom: Streber is badly mangled but still alive when Skid and Pump leave the attraction, leaving just a bit of ambiguity for him to potentially survive his encounter with Bob. Some sketches by Pelo suggested that he did survive, but lost his arm, which was confirmed outright in "Hollow Sorrows" as Streber can briefly be seen in the background of one shot with a bandaged up stump.
Streber's Friends
L-to-R: Aria, Ethan, Leon, Bombwolf*, Confi, and Liv
Voiced by: Corey Wilder (Ethan), Ava Haider (Aria), Sami Chen (Leon), Marcy Martinez (Liv)
Streber's closest buddies who help him orchestrate his haunted house attraction. They're much less serious about it than he is.
- Ascended Extra: All of them only appeared for a few seconds in "Tender Treats", with "Streber's Rehearsal" giving most of them names, voices, and personalities.
- Author Avatar: Ethan and the one in the bombwolf costume are loosely based on animators that worked on "Tender Treats" and (for the former) "Streber's Rehearsal", Fangz and MrBlaz.
- Character Overlap:
- Liv is a character from a series of self-titled shorts created by one of the animators, Marco Cárdenas.
- Confi originates from illustrations done by BeffenM, one of the show's background artists.
- Early-Bird Cameo: Liv's face appears on a piece of candy in the background of "Deadly Smiles" before her actual first appearance in "Tender Treats".
- The Gadfly: Leon and Liv love to push Streber's buttons, laughing after they get him riled up enough to throw his notepad of ideas at them.
- Genki Girl: Liv is extremely restless, bouncing up and down with a smile on her face, and testing out Streber's Chroma Key contraption on herself, being incredibly amused in the process.
- Mellow Fellow: Ethan and Aria are both extremely calm and have a tendency of humoring Streber's ideas.
- No Name Given: The one dressed as a bombwolf is the only one of the group with no name, as he doesn't speak during "Streber's Rehearsal".
- True Companions: Despite how often they poke and prod at Streber, all of them are happy to assist him in crafting his haunted house.
- The Unintelligible: Confi has lines of dialogue, but her voice is extremely muffled under the bandages wrapped around her mouth. The subtitles offer a translation.
Costume Happy Fella
"Hey girl! You want a fella to make you happy?"
Voiced by: Brandon Winckler
A man working at a retail store dressed in a Happy Fella costume.
- Blatant Lies: Despite the girl clearly telling Costume HF that he's not her type, he later blames Skid and Pump for his ruined date.
- Butt-Monkey: Suffers a lot of misfortunes throughout "Hollow Sorrows".
- Casanova Wannabe: He flirts with a female coworker. She's less than impressed by him.
- Forced Dance Partner: He is made to do a Happy Dance in the Happy Fella costume for his job.
- Expressive Mask: His Happy Fella mask sometimes mimics his emotions, for example having angry or concerned eyebrows.
- No Name Given: He is credited as "Costume Happy Fella" and called "Costume HF" in the subtitles.
- Tempting Fate: When complaining about his pay, Costume HF claims that he's rather be thrown in the trash. He's cut off mid sentence by Moloch running away from Father Gregor, who knocks him in the dumpster.
Michelle Erotoph
"I... I lost my trust in everything. And all I have left... is hope."
Voiced by: Lizzie Freeman
Dexter Erotoph's elderly mother who owns many cats.
- Cruel and Unusual Death: Although she is killed off-screen, judging by the blood-filled morgue, it would appear that Moloch slaughtered her mercilessly.
- Death by Irony: She's killed offscreen by the same demon who killed her son, who she's still searching for at the time, all while the demon is possessing a staff member of the hospital the old woman has monthly checkups at.
- Eye Scream: Her left eye is permanently closed and appears to have been scratched, leaving a very noticeable scratch mark. Likely caused by one of her cats.
- Introverted Cat Person: What makes Michelle's story all the more tragic is that the only human she had a close relationship with was Dexter, who's been dead for over a year in-universe by the time we meet her.
- Killed Offscreen: Moloch does this to her after he tricked her while possessing Patty: the result seen later is the morgue splattered with her blood.
- Kindhearted Cat Lover: Michelle is by all counts a sweet woman with a very strong fondness for cats.
- Memento MacGuffin: The heart-patterned pendent she wears containing a photo of her son, Dexter. Also doubles as a Tragic Keepsake as she says all she has left is hope to eventually find him... shortly before being Killed Offscreen by Moloch.
- No Body Left Behind: From the morgue shots after her death to the ARG image, her body appears nowhere; it is unknown whether it is hidden in a corner or was destroyed by Moloch, since not even the characters who enter afterwards (Dr. Mort Vivifico, Skid, Pump and Gregor) seem to have found it. The only thing that remains of her is the locket with Dexter's photo inside.
- Nothing Is Scarier: We never see Michelle's death, nor her body as a result of Moloch's attack, but judging by the blood-spattered morgue it doesn't appear to have been a pleasant experience.
- Tragic Keepsake: After Dexter's disappearance, Michelle takes with her a locket with a photo of him inside, which in turn becomes the only thing that remains of her after her death at the hands of Moloch.
- Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Despite being a kind old woman, it's implied that she unwittingly caused Dexter's Start of Darkness, as she's shown to own a household full of cats, and Dexter is infamous for his hatred and killing of cats, which he calls his "needs".
- We Hardly Knew Ye: She's introduced in "Hollow Sorrows", asking Father Gregor for help in finding her son, she later appears asking a possessed Patty for direction and the last we see of her are blood stains in the morgue and a brief illusion of her by Moloch.
