Miss Peregrine loves her children Enoch, Olivia, Jake, Emma, ​​the twins, Claire, Bronwyn, Hugh, Fiona and Millard

Personality: A quiet, withdrawn, and reserved girl. She prefers to spend time in the garden. She rarely speaks, but is always ready to protect her friends with the power of nature.
Relationships: Her friendship and mutual attraction with Hugh Apistone (a boy with a swarm of bees inside him) is vividly portrayed. Her abilities perfectly complement his, as Hugh's bees help pollinate the flowers and plants she grows.

Enoch O'Connor's "strangeness" lies in necromancy—the ability to briefly animate inanimate objects and dead creatures.
Appearance and style
Age: Appears to be a teenager, 16-17 years old. In reality, due to being trapped in a time loop, his real age is approximately 117 years.

Clothing: Wears strict, closed suits in the vintage style of the early 20th century in dark colors (black, gray, dark blue), button-down shirts and heavy boots.
Character and behavior
Gloom and Cynicism: Enoch is the most secretive, sullen, and pessimistic teenager in the house. He often displays skepticism, acting rudely and distantly. Jealousy and Mistrust: With the arrival of Jacob Portman, Enoch becomes openly jealous of those around him (especially Emma) and views the outsider with suspicion.
Secret feelings: Despite his outward coldness, he is genuinely attached to the inhabitants of the house. Enoch has particular romantic feelings for Olivia Abroholos Elefante, although he hides this behind a mask of indifference for a long time (he loves Olivia).
Special Ability ("Strangeness")
Animating Puppets: To activate an inanimate object (such as the creepy homunculus puppets he creates from clay and hardware), Enoch places an animal heart (usually a sheep's or a bovine's) inside them, which he stores in jars of formalin.
Temporary Raising of the Dead: He can temporarily bring a recently deceased person or creature back to life. To do this, he places the heart into the deceased's chest. The reanimated individual can speak and answer questions as long as Enoch retains the power.
Laboratory: In his house, he has his own workshop, which resembles a mad scientist's lair, filled with jars of organs, mechanisms, and grotesque dolls that he makes fight each other for fun.

Character
Personality: Olivia is a kind, caring, romantic, and slightly timid girl. She is very careful due to her destructive power.

Oddity (superpower): Horace has prophetic dreams. Once a week, the house's inhabitants gather to watch his dreams.

The mouth has sharp, predatory teeth and a full-fledged second throat connected to the stomach.
Due to shyness, Claire prefers not to eat in front of strangers in the usual way.
To eat lunch, Claire has to turn her back to the table, lift her curls, and feed the back of her head with her hands (in one scene in the film, she eats a whole turkey drumstick this way).

Twins -
Appearance
Geminis stand out for their unusual, monochrome and frightening appearance:
Masks and Costumes: They constantly wear identical baggy costumes made of rough white fabric (resembling burlap).
Faces: Their heads are completely covered by cloth bag-like masks with slits for the eyes. Thick triangular outlines are drawn around the slits, and small dark lips are depicted in place of the mouth, making them resemble sinister dolls.
Clothing: Wear white loose shirts, shorts, long socks and simple shoes.
Traits and Superpowers
Gorgon's Gaze: Behind their masks are the faces of creatures whose direct gaze instantly turns anyone who looks at them to stone. This is why they are forced to constantly cover their faces.
Behavior: Geminis communicate without words, act in perfect sync, and understand each other telepathically. They appear harmless and quiet, but their strength is a hidden asset for the inhabitants of the house.

The island in our time
Atmosphere: A gloomy, godforsaken and secluded place with harsh, rainy weather.
Landscape: The island is covered with green hills, rocky beaches, peat bogs and steep cliffs.
Infrastructure: A small fishing village with whitewashed cottages, a dwindling population, the Priest Hole pub, and a tiny local museum housing an ancient bog mummy. Communication with the mainland is virtually nonexistent.
Main attraction: The ruined and ivy-covered remains of an old mansion that was destroyed by a German air strike during World War II. Island in a time loop (September 3, 1943) Inside the space-time corridor ("loop") created by Miss Peregrine to protect the children, the island looks completely different:
Eternal Summer: The weather here is always perfect, sunny, and warm. Time runs in a circle, so no one ages or gets sick.
A well-kept mansion: Instead of ruins, a magnificent Victorian castle, Torenhof, appears, with a luxurious flowering garden and immaculate green lawns.
Entrance to the Loop: This hidden world can only be reached through a dark, dank cave on the island's coast, which serves as a portal between eras. Only those with Peculiarities (Peculiar Children and Hollows) can pass through.

Miss Peregrine's House - Exterior of the house in 1943 (inside the loop)
Inside the secure time loop, the house looks like a luxurious Victorian manor, filled with light, comfort, and family warmth:
Architecture: This is a monumental three-story building of dark stone and brick with high spires, numerous chimneys, carved windows and a glass greenhouse facade reminiscent of a birdcage.
The grounds: The house is surrounded by an immaculate, vibrant garden with topiary bushes shaped like fantastical animals, manicured lawns and a huge vegetable garden.
Interior decoration
The house's interior combines home comfort with a hidden Gothic mystery:
Common areas: Spacious rooms are furnished with luxurious wooden furniture, floral wallpaper hangs on the walls, and spiral staircases connect the floors. Antique gramophones, clocks, and books are scattered throughout.
Children's rooms: Each room reflects the "strangeness" of its owner. For example, Enoch's room resembles a gloomy necromancer's laboratory with vials and jars, Emma's room is filled with heavy objects to prevent her from flying away, and Horace's room contains a projector for viewing his prophetic dreams.

The Void are invisible, man-eating monsters that prey on "peculiar" people. They were created as a result of a failed experiment by a radical group of "peculiar" scientists who were attempting to achieve immortality and become gods. Appearance: Invisibility: Normal people and most "peculiar" children cannot see them. Void can only be spotted by indirect signs (footprints, shadows, destruction).
Giant Stature: They are tall, skinny, and stooped humanoid creatures.
Mouth Tentacles: Their main distinguishing feature is the long, strong black tentacles that grow directly from their mouths, which they use to grab their victims.
Eyelessness: They have deformed, eyeless faces and pale, withered skin. Behavior and Weaknesses
Eye Feeding: Hollows feed exclusively on the eyes of peculiar children.
Wight Transformation: If a Void consumes enough eyes, it evolves into a "Wight"—taking on a human form but retaining completely white, pupil-less eyes.
Main vulnerability: Only a few can see them. Jake Portman and his grandfather Abe possess this ability. Monsters also materialize if they are doused with paint, covered in sand, or when they attack in thick smoke.
