* CompleteMonster: [[BigBad Bobby Cross]] was a movie star known as "Diamond Bobby" who wished to be [[ImmortalityImmorality young and beautiful forever]]. Through his [[DealWithTheDevil deal with the crossroads]], Bobby drives eternally to outrun mortality, but takes advantage of the deal to empower himself by arranging crashes and accidents, or simply murdering people himself to create ghosts, including heroine [[{{Psychopomp}} Rose Marshall]]. Bobby then [[YourSoulIsMine takes their souls]] to use as fuel for his car, using them up into nothing. Seducing Rose's great grand-niece Bethany, Bobby murders her when she fails against Rose and even convinces a follower to kill herself for him, solely for amusement and spite. A sadistic sociopath, Bobby uses and abuses all around him, dispatching them when they stop being of use, all so he will never have to face his own mortality.

** [[spoiler: Gary loved Rose so much that he never married after losing her on prom night. He spent his entire life finding a way to bind his ghost to hers after his death. He not only succeeded, but made it a ''present'' -- he bound his soul to a beautiful car that rolled off the assembly line the day she died.]]
** Upon [[spoiler: Bobby kidnapping Emma]], Rose ''immediately'' rides off to her rescue, and accepts a dangerous challenge in order to save her. (Dangerous, as in, [[spoiler: Bobby would get her ''and Gary'', with whom she's just been reunited.]])
