Lucretia "Lucy" Brockhollow
Lucretia Brockhollow is a very tall, stately, elderly woman, the sister of the squire, an aging and unmarried high-society socialite MM E1·01:02:23. Like her brother she is a tall and imposing figure, and everything about her fashion, down to a huge fur shawl, takes up space MM E1·01:02:23. She says "Well, you know people are calling me an eccentric these days!" MM E1·01:03:16. She tells a guest that she is a medium and that the guest is positively surrounded by spirits MM E1·01:06:08.
Lucretia is the squire's sister, a socialite who says she is a medium and announces a post-dinner seance MM E1·01:02:23 MM E1·01:06:08 MM E2·00:30:47. At the seance she tells Daisy "Heed the warning of the spirits, Daisy." MM E2·01:27:32. After the squire's death she points out that Ian was alone while she fetched her occult paraphernalia MM E3·01:34:09 MM E3·01:34:24. In MM_04 she clears the Seance Room for the party MM E4·01:41:21. She declares "Let none interfere with the spiritual work of these brave souls!" MM E4·01:42:57.
In MM_07 she says "I've been fucking saying it all night. Everything is real." MM E7·01:55:24. She later calls Sylvester a "wicked, wicked fox" MM E7·02:22:10. In MM_08 the party finds a body taken to be Lady Lucretia's on the entrance-hall dais MM E8·00:55:26. A blood message above it says "I have taken the sister" MM E8·00:55:42. In MM_09 Brennan explains that a perfect decoy of Lucretia had to be pieced together from two or three old badger ladies, so the body in MM_08 was a decoy MM E9·01:09:43.
In MM_10 Lars finds her alive and unmanacled in the boathouse, where Constance and Dr. Magpie lie bound and gagged MM E10·00:40:39. When Constance says her father is dead, Lucretia answers "That's only what you think. The body in the study was a decoy." MM E10·00:42:38. Lars tells them the body in the house is the squire's actual body MM E10·00:52:18. Lucretia answers "I don't believe you." MM E10·00:53:10. She says that Jez knew they were disappearing that night MM E10·00:54:04. In the epilogue she says "Yes, like the ancient Greek beasts of old, everyone disrobe at once." MM E10·02:45:21.
