Characters
Lenore
Lenore is a 10 year-old undead girl, who lives in a mansion with her friend Ragamuffin. The reasons why she was embalmed or why she came back from the dead are uncertain; she died from pneumonia the first time, but nothing is known about her second death. She loves animals but always tends to hurt or kill them. Lenore has a way of scaring people and things without having to try and she doesn't always use her common sense.
Ragamuffin
Ragamuffin was a man-eating vampire, but was cursed and transformed into a doll by a witch, after eating her sister. The curse could only be broken by a drop of blood. The blood that brought him back was Lenore's, which was mixed with embalming fluid. This caused him not to return to his old form, instead staying a harmless, toothless, stuffed doll for ever. He lives with Lenore in her mansion.

Mr. Gosh
Mr. Gosh is a human-size doll with buttons as eyes, and is madly and obsessively in love with Lenore. Even being killed several times by Lenore, he keeps returning from the grave — often saying that he forgives her for killing him, as he supposes she always does it by accident. Including others, Mr. Gosh has been killed by Lenore during the "Lawnmower Incident", in which she ran him over repeatedly with a lawnmower.
Taxidermy
Taxidermy is an embalmed deer (?) that first appeared to Lenore when asking her to take care of his pet, Malakai.
Kitty
Lenore oftenly carries a dead kitty with her. The kittens weren't dead when she got them, but she just "accidentally" kills every kitty she takes care of. She is even confronted by the spirit of "kitty # 12" about her cruel behavior towards animals but she never seems to notice her actions cause death.
