The estranged daughter of Ulysses Bloodstone. She returns to Bloodstone Manor to participate in the competition, as she thinks she is the rightful heir to the Bloodstone. The monster hunters are less than kind to her at first but change their tune when they see she can take care of herself. 

Man-Thing

He is referred to as Ted by Jack and is a 7-foot-tall mass of sentient vegetation. Doctor Theodore Sallis was once a man who was turned into Man-Thing, after experimental serum combined with swamp water during a car crash. In Werewolf By Night, he seems terrifying until you get to know him, and once you do, he’s a delight. 

Verussa Bloodstone

The widow of acclaimed monster hunter Ulysses Bloodstone, and in classic Disney fashion, is a wicked stepmother to Elsa. She is cunning and cruel and is also the true power behind the throne when her husband is not there. She is a villain who traps Jack Russell, so he turns into his werewolf self. However, right before she tries to kill Elsa, she is expired to ash, thanks to Man-Thing.

While he is the most enthusiastic of the bunch, he makes the mistake of going after Elsa instead of the monster. This turns fatal, and he is the first one of the hunters to die. However, he fares well in a melee fight and even is able to take down some of his fellow hunters. 

Azarel

One of the special’s showiest monster hunters. Azarel has a confirmed 37 kills. We see her a little bit in the beginning, but she doesn’t appear again until the end, when she shows that she can handle a fight. However, she meets her demise here and gets her throat slit and a sword to the skull.
