only characters that majorly impact the plot are mentioned.

main characters

jake ( the protagonist )
a charming paranormal fanatic who wants to uncover the mystery haunting his high school. he's smart, but definitely going to fail all of his exams if he doesn't fix his priorities.

willow myers
jake's friend that transfers to gmhs at the same time. she's also interested in solving The Mystery, but ends up distracted for the beginning of the story. while a bit antisocial, she's fiercely loyal to her friends.

ryder díaz
the source of willow's distraction. he feels alienated from his peers, but finds a place where he belongs with jake and willow. he's less interested in the school's controversy than the others.

darby hill
the social outcast who seems to be at the center of the school's mystery. while everyone in the school claims to know his story, all he wants is a real friend who isn't only interested in his highly publicized trauma. he would maybe have an easier time if he didn't jump to bully whoever talks to him.

remi
the social outcast who, unlike darby, nobody could claim to know anything about. perhaps the biggest mystery of the school is how darby is the only person who managed to get semi-close to him, and not the lies he presents himself with. his seemingly only want is to prevent anyone from getting to know anything about him, aside from his cold exterior.

minor characters

aria cordillera
the strict english teacher who seems to despise her job. she seems to have an intense hatred towards darby specifically; apparently she can't tolerate when someone shows her the same disrespect that she bestows upon all of her students.

tallulah "tally" gray
the assistant librarian who dreams of becoming a singer. she's popular with both the students and faculty alike, but most don't know her on a close level. regardless, she's friendly and welcoming to everyone she meets.

mae thompson
tally's introverted girlfriend who lives in the library. her demeanor is a bit similar to darby's without the hostility. they would probably make good friends if they weren't intent on hating each other.

ryōma
darby's only other friend besides remi. her personality is upbeat and sincere- it's a wonder how they get along. they usually spend time together in the school's gardening club.

ianthe piraneo
one of aria's "contacts," and the former ally of the principal. aside from their name and career in a travelling circus, nothing is known about them.

" mephisto "
her name is a nickname universally agreed upon by those educated about her existence. she's currently working as a performer in a travelling circus.

" sam "
???

" casimiro "
???

leo
the student who committed suicide in the high school library- the reason the rumors surrounding the school spiraled out of control. he was known as being kind, caring, and having a passion for reading. he was frequently spotted hanging out with his friends in the library.

sydney
jake and willow's former friend and bandmate. their current whereabouts are completely unknown, including whether or not they are deceased. the incident that caused their disappearance may or may not have spurred on the duo's obsession with the paranormal.

wren myers
willow's brother who died 8 years before the story begins. his death caused the mental breakdown and suicide of their biological father.

the principal
the mysterious principal of the high school who went missing after the school gained infamy for its haunted library. their public appearances are sometimes done via a vtuber model, a fact that circulates around the school every so often for laughs. what only a few students know is that the model's shockingly outlandish appearance is almost exactly what they actually look like.

jade everette
the vice principal who fulfills most of the principal's public responsibilities. even before they went missing, she has always been the school's official public speaker for unknown reasons.
