Dr. Charles Witherspoon

Charles Witherspoon is a doctor originally from London, but he currently resides in Boston. He primariliy cares for the indigent poor at his clinic. Both in London and in Boston, he has seemingly been followed by vicious murders of his female customers, and in one case, his wife, Jeanne Witherspoon. He was at one time a suspect for the Jack the Ripper killings, but no evidence could be brought against him. Dr. Witherspoon believes the murders that follow him to be by mere chance.

Dr. Charles Witherspoon acts as a fence, buying from lower income poor and selling to rich criminals, both for wealth and for thrills. His extended contact with prostitutes was interpreted by Jeanne as extended lustful encounters. She grew bitter at his seeming adultery and began killing them to scare them away. However, some unknown evil killed her, rendering her a ghost attached to her funeral ashes. After Charles left London and began practicing his operations (both legit and illicit) again, she began killing again. Charles attributes the current murders as some of his business clients.

Dr. Charles Witherspoon lives in his residence on Beacon Street. He employs a butler named James.
