YMMV / Midnight Maid Night

Go To

  • Complete Monster: Jeremiah Vermander is the former head of the corrupt Vermander family. Known for being a very cruel and selfish man, Jeremiah tended to burn his servants alive if they prepared a bad meal for him. When the blizzard hit the city and his newspaper couldn't be delivered to him, Jeremiah sent his faithful servant, Cornelius, outside to go get it, not even allowing him to wear a winter coat, which resulted in Cornelius freezing to death. Discovering that his son, Joseph, entered a relationship with a servant, Jeremiah brutally murdered her and shoved her corpse beneath the floors of the mansion. When Joseph started to help the poor after his death, Jeremiah came back as a ghost and murdered him, resulting in the ghosts of his son, his son's lover, and Cornelius being unable to rest, and them haunting the mansion. When the Midnight Maids come to clean his mansion for the new owner, Jeremiah tries to hunt them down.
  • Moral Event Horizon: Jeremiah is such a horrible person that it's hard to tell when he exactly crossed it. However, there are some options:
    • Burning his workers alive for making him bad meals.
    • Sending his servant Cornelius out in a snow blizzard to take the newspaper, without even giving him a winter coat and causing him to freeze to death.
    • Killing Agatha, the woman his son loved, merely because she was a servant.
    • Killing Joseph, his own son, because the latter was trying to clear their family's name.
