The Dead

The collection of souls, gathered from various points in the preceding century, inhabiting Blackbury cemetery, who Johnny Maxwell discovers are not so much lost as at a loss.

The principal spectres

• Alderman Thomas Bowler (1826-1906)
• Mrs Sylvia Liberty, (d.1914) Suffragette
• Comrade William Stickers
• Solomon Einstein, taxidermist and amateur physicist

• Antonio Vicente, magician and escapologist manqué
• Mr. Ronald Newton (1878-1934)
• Mr. Addison Fletcher, an electronics engineer
• Pvt. Tommy Atkins, Blackbury Volunteers (the Pals)
