* AmbiguouslyHuman: Mrs. Finlayson comes across as this. She hasn't appeared in person yet but apparently when she is in a specific area blood starts dripping down walls and dogs start forming into packs. Also she was recently in the hospital for cosmetic surgery for her chin, lips, cheeks and eyelids which only begs the question what she even looks like period let alone beforehand. The first chapter of "Expiry by Lamplight" establishes all of this. The second chapter has Theresa describe Mrs. Finlayson as a "not quite human woman." The second chapter of "The Eerie Safari" continues the blood theme with her presence including blood running from faucets as well and, unrelated to the blood theme, Niall, as his female alter ego Alexis, mistakes his step-grandmother for a hat rack.
