Character Relationships in The Puppetman

Michal (played by Alyson Gorske) is a protagonist in The Puppetman. Michal is the central protagonist, a traumatized young woman whose mother was murdered by her father when she was a child. After learning more about her past, she becomes linked to a demon that causes the deaths of Charlie, Glenn, Jo, and Danny, while Ruby and Detective Al Rosen try to save her. Charlie (played by Angel Prater) is a protagonist in The Puppetman. Charlie is Michal's roommate and friend who investigates Michal's troubled past through recorded videos and a podcast. She tells their fellow students about Michal's father, then becomes the first victim of the supernatural force when she is immobilized, pulled across the roof, and thrown to her death. Danny (played by Kio Cyr) appears in The Puppetman. Danny is Michal's friend and a supportive companion after Charlie's death. He witnesses Michal's dangerous sleepwalking, visits the prison with her, helps investigate Ruby's warnings, and remains with her despite the danger. After the demon takes control of Michal, it kills Danny by repeatedly smashing his head against a car's steering wheel. Glenn (played by Cameron Wong) appears in The Puppetman. Glenn is one of Michal and Charlie's fellow students and joins the group on the dormitory roof. After Charlie's death, he is present during the investigation into Michal's behavior, but later dies under supernatural influence when an overwhelming force causes him to collapse while bench-pressing in a gym. Ruby (played by Caryn Richman) appears in The Puppetman. Ruby is the clairvoyant whom Michal and her friends consult for answers about the supernatural events. She communicates cryptically with Danny through messages written on banknotes, recognizes the danger surrounding Michal, and later helps Detective Al Rosen contact the part of Michal that remains separate from the demon.
