Frank (The Party in Room Four)

In his youth, Frank and his friend Andy Lang bought fake IDs so that they could drink at the Village Inn.

In his later life, Frank had attended multiple parties hosted by Iris Wildthyme in a meadow and in room four of the Village Inn. Despite attending the parties, he refused to join in, leaving his wife and daughter to party by themselves.

Soon, Iris had tried to stop an unknown entity from destroying the village where he and his family lived, but Iris had failed, and almost everybody in the village, including his wife and daughter, died. Frank was one of around two dozen survivors.

His friend Jane had tried to console him by telling him that his family's spirits had been set free, but this caused Frank to get angry at Jane.

After this tragedy, he hired room five at the Village Inn, and he began to hear and see the parties he had once attended. He grew to dislike one man in these parties, who had a nasal voice.

Over the course of a few days, he had many encounters with the press, and he attended the mass funeral of the village, all while re-experiencing the parties he had ignored. The day before leaving the village to live with his friend Jane, he realised that the man who he hated from the parties was in fact himself. (PROSE: The Party in Room Four)
