Chastity and Modesty Barebone, Langdon Shaw
New character descriptions from SciFiNow:
CHASTITY BAREBONE (Jenn Murray)
Chastity Barebone is Mary Lou?s adopted eldest daughter, who dutifully follows her mother?s rules and helps in the cause of eradicating magic and those who practice it.
MODESTY BAREBONE (Faith Wood-Blagrove)
Modesty Barebone is Mary Lou?s youngest adopted daughter. A bit precocious, she manages to hide her disobedience from her strict mother, aware of what happens to her brother, Credence. Playing her favorite game of hopscotch, she chants anti-witchcraft rhymes. But out of sight of her mother and older sister, she rebelliously scatters the Second Salemers leaflets to the four winds.
HENRY SHAW, SR. (Jon Voight)
Henry Shaw, Sr. is a newspaper magnate with two sons. His elder son, and his pride and joy, is a senator, who is running for re-election. His younger son, Langdon, is something of a failure in his eyes, so Henry Sr. is dismissive of him when he tries to call his father?s attention to recent strange occurrences in New York City.
LANGDON SHAW (Ronan Raftery)
Langdon Shaw is the younger son of newspaper magnate Henry Shaw Sr. Unlike his older brother, who is a senator, Langdon has never lived up to his father?s expectations, but is always trying to win his approval. When he learns of a series of mysterious events in New York City, which point to something magical, he brings it to his father, thinking he?s found the story of the century. However, his father and brother dismiss him out of hand.
SENATOR HENRY SHAW (Josh Cowdery)
Senator Shaw, the eldest son of newspaper magnate Henry Shaw, Sr., is running for re-election in New York. With Prohibition still the law of the land, he rails against the speak-easies and pool rooms and the corruption he believes is behind them. Like his father, he doesn?t think much of his younger brother, Langdon, and scoffs at the notion of some magical being terrorizing the city.
