LINDA - Hostess and Narrator at the fictional Bed and Breakfast Inn. Forty-something, blonde-haired and blue-eyed, with a love of all things mysterious - that's the reason for the spooky atmosphere at this themed B&B! Linda is a mystery writer and a bit of an amateur sleuth, and you'll begin your journey as she meets and greets this weekend's guests. She notices that some of her guests seem to know each other, and she tries to figure out the connection. Things keep getting stranger as people mix and mingle, until one of the guests is murdered! Then Linda tries to figure out who done it - can you help her?

LONNIE - The ultra-creepy butler - six feet six inches tall, with flowing jet black hair and deep, penetrating eyes. He's been a loyal servant at the Dead and Breakfast Inn, helping to entertain weekend visitors by acting a part, complete with an evil laugh! But Linda doesn't know everything about Lonnie, he's only been at the Inn for a year. Does he have something to hide?

PRUDENCE - Serving as the live-in cook and maid for the Dead and Breakfast Inn, this fifty-something spinster is thin and quite unattractive, with a sour disposition. Only employed there six months, Linda hasn't been too sure about her work performance. Her cooking just isn't quite up to par for a luxury B&B, and she's been put on notice that she's to shape up or else! This doesn't help the tension this weekend at the Inn - and Prudence seems to be acting stranger than usual - staying up late to work on her cooking skills, or maybe for a different reason - she does have a penchant for sharp knives and bloody rare beef...

CYNTHIA SNODGRASS - Linda met Cynthia at a writer's club meeting and invited her to stay the weekend. Cynthia is a freelance journalist, and wanted to do a piece on Bed and Breakfast Inns for a travel magazine. Linda welcomed the publicity. But Cynthia, who seemed nice when they first met, has suddenly developed a chilly mood since all the guests arrived - she's keeping to herself in the isolated third floor guest room. She even asked to be excluded from the group meals, insisting on having Prudence at her beck and call during her stay. So Linda obliged - not wanting a bad review for the Inn - and hasn't seen much of Cynthia...

MELISSA JAMESON - This twenty-something brunette bombshell housewife came to the Inn with her new husband Mark - they wanted to take their belated honeymoon at a unique B&B, and the Dead and Breakfast Inn fit the part. Melissa also dressed the part, in black silk and stilettos, with a lot of expensive jewelry. She seemed to be after only one thing the whole weekend - sex - the more the better! Her husband Mark seemed over tired, but was he already tired of his new wife?

MARK JAMESON - Thirty-something with brown hair and brown eyes, rugged good looks, and the stamina to keep up with his bride Melissa. He claimed to be an accountant with a firm in Dallas. He managed to sneak away for a break from all the hot action, and nobody could find him for awhile Saturday afternoon. Linda noticed he kept winking at her all weekend, and she thought it was just an inside joke about sexy Melissa, until late Saturday night...

FLORENCE HART - A friend of Linda's from high school, Florence recently found out about the B&B and decided to have a reunion with her old chum. But forty-something Florence isn't the same shy gal that Linda knew all those years ago. A secretary who's already married and divorced two former bosses, now she's job hunting and husband hunting again. She brought a man with her to the Dead and Breakfast Inn - someone she's only known for a few weeks. Florence didn't used to behave like a tramp, and Linda seemed disappointed that their reunion was rather strained. Florence was evasive all weekend - she seemed to have a lot of secrets...

JOE FLEMMING - A tall, dark, charismatic man with a British accent. Florence's traveling companion for the weekend at the Dead and Breakfast Inn, Joe claimed to be an investment broker - doing rather well he said... Linda grew a bit weak in the knees when he gazed into her eyes. Too long without a companion of her own, Linda was ashamed to be jealous of Florence! Yet Joe did seem interested in Linda, and he also seemed to recognize Cynthia - what was the connection?
