23. favorite one-off character/plot:

This is one of those answers that'll probably change depending on whether I've just read a book that would qualify... but I'm going with Barbara from No Place to Hide. In any other SV book, she'd be an actual ghost, but for the purposes of this book, she's just meant to seem like one. There's a haunting backstory, a creepy uncle, a haunting, and Nicholas Morrow and the twins ride in to rescue the damsel in distress. Huzzah!
