also good friends with Stan.
Stan (Ben) and Megan
(Zoe) are brother and
sister. Stan is also in his
early twenties and
Megan is ten years old.
Stan works in an office,
were he also finishes
late and often has to

The Mysterious Murderer can be seen as
slightly psychotic. At the beginning of the

listening to his phone conversations. When
he attacks extreme strength will be
displayed and his favored weapon will be a
wickedly sharp knife.
