There are a handful of ghosts that keep to themselves, living the afterlife alone. For starters, Uncle Grimmly is a ghost that just isn’t as scary as the other ghosts of the mansion. He spends his free time practicing scary poses in the mirror, trying to be as scary as everyone else. The other ghosts don’t like him very much. Another loner, Sir Weston, dislikes company so much that he froze himself into an ice block. The bio for Weston states that he “hasn’t warmed up to being a ghost,” which – other than the pun – is kind of sad. Nana, the scarf-knitter mentioned earlier, has a short temper, and is left to herself, knitting the world’s longest scarf. Though she is referred to as a granny, it is never made clear whose grandmother she is, though it is implied that she is a part of the family of five. Despite the familial connection, she remains isolated, knitting a scarf and shooting needles out of her eyes somehow.
Sue Pea, the seven-year-old dozing girl, doesn’t want to be bothered so as to not interrupt her beauty sleep. She can be found in the guest room, which, for some unexplained reason, is entirely upside down. She sleeps on the ceiling, and I genuinely am confused as to why. Finally, the loneliest of the loners, Shivers the butler eternally roams the hall of the mansion, searching for his master’s will and hoping he is included in it. He is also in love with Melody the pianist, who, according to him, clearly does not return his affection. He’s just a lonely old man, wandering a mansion alone, searching for a will he won’t find, in love with a woman who will never love him back.
