Josephine Vance

Josephine, a character from the It Lives Beneath book, is your maternal grandmother. She is first seen in Chapter 1.

Personality
From her journal entries, it appears that Josephine was a loner who enjoyed being away from other people. She actively worked against the Land development group that tried to pressure her into selling her land, especially after learning about The Power. It was during this time that she met Arthur, a member of the development group. The two of them fell in love and had a daughter named Marie.

However, Arthur later told the developers about The Power, which caused Josephine to feel betrayed and vow revenge on the people who would eventually be known as The Society.

Decades of being tortured and killed repeatedly caused her to lose her sanity and she eventually lashed out, becoming an angry spirit that drowns innocent people.
