“I still remember hugging him when it was cold. I... I lost my trust in everything, and all I have left... is hope.”
― Michelle Erotoph, talking about her son after his disappearance.
Michelle Erotoph is a minor character in the Spooky Month series, debuting in Spooky Month 6 - Hollow Sorrows.
She is the mother of Dexter Erotoph, one of the series' main antagonists. Apparently oblivious to her son's murderous tendencies, she was a doting mother who loved him dearly. After his death, she mourned his loss by going to the town's church and speaking with Father Gregor. She later went to the town's hospital, where she was killed by Moloch.
Biography[]
Spooky Month 6 - Hollow Sorrows[]
Michelle goes to the town's church to talk with Father Gregor about her missing son, who had disappeared several months ago. She shows the Father a video of her son taking one of her cats "to the vet" and then leaving. She explains how badly she misses him, and says that the only thing she has left in her life is hope that he is still alive. Father Gregor says he will help as much as he can, and he will pray for her son's safe return, before escorting her outside. She then walks past Skid and Pump, seemingly to go to Eden Hospital.
Not long after, Michelle appears in the hospital where she is looking for her doctor. Unable to find them, she stops by a Moloch-possessed Patty and asks for assistance. "Patty" says she'd be happy to help, and takes her to the morgue, where Michelle is then killed.
An illusion of Michelle created by Moloch later appears in the morgue, trying and failing alongside an illusion of Dexter to convince Father Gregor to hand over Skid and Pump. It is quickly dispelled after holy water is thrown at it.
Profile[]
Appearance[]
Michelle Erotoph is an elderly woman, probably in or around her 60s. She has a rectangular head with grey hair tied back into a bun, with a wrinkled face and her left eye permanent shut from some kind of scar, presumably from one of her many cats. Her other eye has heavy bags, and she wears a pair of small teashade-like glasses.
She wears a purple short-sleeved t-shirt with two white buttons on the neck, and a pair yellow pants with yellow slippers. Around her neck she wears a golden locket with a heart on the outside, which can be opened to reveal a picture of Dexter's face.
Personality[]
Unlike her son, Michelle Erotoph seems to be a genuinely nice person. Everyone she interacts with she treats with respect and kindness, and she appears to mean well.
However, Michelle also seems like an extraordinarily oblivious person. She apparently never noticed that the cats Dexter took would never come back, and she didn't realize that "Patty," (actually Moloch who is possessing Patricia) who had yellow glowing eyes and was standing in a pitch-black hospital, meant to cause her harm.
Her son seemed to be her only true friend, and after his disappearance Michelle seems to have fallen into a depressive state, carrying around a locket with a picture of him at all times.
She says that after he left she "lost [her] trust in everything," and that the only thing keeping her going is hope that Dexter is okay.
Trivia[]
- It is unclear whether or not Michelle was aware of the fact that Dexter was dead. Her dialogue seems to imply that she only thinks Dexter went missing, not that she believes him to be deceased. If she knew that he was dead, it is unlikely that she would go to church to pray for his well-being.
- One could argue that she went to Eden Hospital to check up on his body, but she doesn't appear to recognize Patty as her doctor, which means that theory is unlikely. Her doctor could be Mort Vivifico, but he was in the hospital at the same time Michelle was.
