Role description

As a major soccer fan, Reece dresses up as his favourite player for Halloween. He is an aloof, candid boy who speaks without much care for his friend’s feelings, whether he realizes that or not. Reece does not want to participate in the seance. Wishing to stick to the plan of watching a scary movie post-trick or treating, he puts all his energy into shutting down paranormal-conversations and treating the idea like a joke. Amplified with the passing of his friend George, Reece presents himself with distance and coolness. The wall the ascetic boy sits behind is sturdy, but is tested by the vulnerability of his friends as well as the mention of his lost pal. Although Reece is petulant and often abrasive, his innocent soul shines through in the group's common love for sugar, comic books, and revenge on school bullies.

Role description

A cherubic, guileless boy who decides to dress up as Amelia Earhart for Halloween. Talked into participating in the seance by his pal Mikey, Boone follows wherever his friends go without much say in the decision. The vibrant child shows nerves throughout the night and reveals the close relationship he holds with his grandma, passing on warnings of her encounter with the supernatural. Unlike his friends, Boone is quite the romantic and has a not-so-secret crush on Mikey’s older sister, believing his charm can win over any lucky girl. When it comes to conflict within the group, however, Boone is a quiet sheep afraid of confrontation: he simply follows the leader with a light joke and without much debate. Like the rest of the friend group, Boone didn’t and still doesn’t talk about George with his pals, liking to think he has moved on from the tragedy. Although he doesn’t utterly reject Mikey’s idea like Reece, the innocent child, true or false, believes he has nothing to say to his ghostly friend.
