- ABOUT THE EDITOR
Stonebrook, Mark (wolf/witch): Mark and Marnie are sibling Were witches who drink vampire blood for increased power. They bring their coven to Shreveport with plans to take a large cut of Eric’s businesses, and send a representative to meet with Eric, Pam, and Chow to give the vampires their terms. Angered by the witches’ threats and Eric’s unwillingness to personally negotiate, Chow grabs the witch, activating a spell that abruptly takes Eric from his office and deposits him, minus shirt, shoes, and memory, on the road leading to Sookie’s house. The coven then sets its sights on the Shreveport Weres, killing their second-in-command. All the while, they continue the search for Eric, plastering Bon Temps with flyers with his face and their contact number. The Weres and the vampires decide to join together, enlisting their own witches to help counteract the coven, and attack the Stonebrooks’ headquarters. Despite plans to take Mark alive, he is killed during what becomes known as the Witch War. (Dies DTTW)
Stonebrook, Marnie “Hallow” (wolf/witch): Hallow and her brother, Mark, are Weres who practice witchcraft and drink vampire blood. They arrive in Shreveport with their coven, planning to take over Eric’s businesses. During the negotiations, Chow assaults the witch representative, triggering a spell that poofs Eric out of his office and gives him amnesia, leaving him running down the road near Sookie’s house with no shirt or shoes. Hallow’s spell doesn’t work as she planned, and she has no idea where Eric is. Determined to find him, she induces some local witches and Wiccans to help out. When the Were witches attack and kill the Shreveport pack’s second-in-command, the local Weres join the vampires in an unprecedented alliance to rid themselves of the coven. Together they stage an attack on the Stonebrooks’ headquarters. Mark and most of the coven members are killed in the battle, leaving only Hallow and one badly injured witch alive. Pam forces Hallow to reveal that her parents (witches who ran confidence games) were abandoned by the supe community when they were incarcerated and that this fueled Hallow’s desire for vengeance on both the Shreveport vamps and Weres. Before killing her, Pam also forces Hallow to reverse the spell on Eric, restoring him to his normal state of mind, and he returns to Shreveport to take control of his area once again. (Dies DTTW; mentioned DAG)
Summerlin, Albert: Albert is around sixteen years old in the 1930s when his neighbor Isaiah Wechsler is murdered in his bed. Having recently had a fight with Isaiah, Albert is the prime suspect, but nothing is ever proven, and eventually the speculation dies down. Albert marries, has children, and raises them in the family home. (Deceased; mentioned IIHAH)
Summerlin, Bucky: Bucky, a descendant of Albert, sells the family home to Tara. (Mentioned IIHAH)
