The good, the bad, and the almost irrelevant. They are the miscellaneous characters that are there to answer that one question, explain away that one plot hole, assist in adding development to that actually relevant character, or give that good (or bad) advice. We usually never learn their names. They are there and they are gone as soon as they serve their purpose often never to be seen again. They may not be the most memorable but definitely have a role to play. If the "No Image" picture is used, it means that the particular character has only been mentioned and has never physically appeared.

Terror Fest

Chapter 1

TFest Ch01 Mrs Baumgartner
TFest Ch01 Mrs Baumgartner LV

Ann Baumgartner

She is your former high school English teacher. She's attacked by an unknown assailant two months prior to your return to Morilec Island, and she has two options for how to respond. In Chapter 4, Bex St. Regis tells you about the immediate aftermath of each choice.

If Mrs. Baumgartner pulls the fire alarm, the assailant attacks her in the hallway just before paramedics arrive to find her in a pool of blood. Detective Porter gives the scene a cursory glance before declining to write a report. If she runs away, the attacker kills her in the parking lot before apparently carrying her body back inside. Despite the bloody hallway and multiple stab wounds, the medical examiner rules her death to be a peaceful heart attack. Either outcome provides Bex with strong evidence pointing towards an official cover-up of the killer's murder spree.

Despite Bex heavily implying her death in both paths, you meet Mrs. Baumgartner in the hospital in Chapter 7 if she pulled the fire alarm. She has just completed her recovery and plans to leave Morilec to retire on the mainland. She's unable to recall the identity of her unmasked attacker due to trauma, but that she knew them and felt safe before they began their assault. All she remembers from the attack itself is a feeling of being manipulated and the smell of cherry blossoms, and she warns you to get away from the evil lurking on the island while you can.

TFest Stabby Joe Killer
TFest Stabby Joe Killer FV

Stabby Joe Killer

At the party hosted by Destiny, they sneak up on Allen/Alana and slit his/her throat before chasing you. Depending on your choices, you can manage to evade them, and you can hurt them if you're armed with the knife. They eventually catch up to you and attempt to kill you, but only succeed in knocking you unconscious.

In Chapter 4, you can build a profile of the killer by examining their past victims that the Mayor has covered up. Based on the victims you examine, you determine that the killer is a young local who likes to get up close and personal with their victims. They stalk their victims because they saw something in them that inspires feelings of rage due to their victims having hope and optimism. Based on the fact that two different murders took place within 10 minutes of each other on opposite sides of the island, you theorize that there could be more than one killer.

In Chapter 6, you discover that their killing method is different from Stabby Joe's. While he tortured his victims by stabbing them repeatedly in the stomach before slitting their throat, this copycat gives their victims an almost peaceful death. In the same chapter, it is revealed that there were two copycat killers prior. One died in prison in the 1970s, while the other was active in the early 2000s and disappeared after 2003.
