Egor Lynch

Who is on the bully team: Frankie, Butch, Chris, Ray.

They are school bullies and troublemakers, often causing mischief to teachers and other students, and love to assert themselves at the expense of those who are weaker.
Typical school punks. Sometimes they force others to do their homework for them or get something so they won't be touched. Usually they ask for cigarettes or alcohol, which they definitely won't sell to kids, but Frankie doesn't give a damn about that, so he forces those he ordered to get it for them to simply steal what he asks for.

Ray
12 years old
‎
Appearance: A thin, agile boy of short stature, with a perpetually cunning slant to his blue eyes and tousled red hair. He wears a dark windbreaker with a raised collar, striped sweatpants, and worn sneakers, perfect for quickly running away from the scene of his latest prank.
‎
Personality: A devious, sarcastic, and inventive troublemaker who comes up with the most hurtful pranks. Unlike the straightforward Frankie, Ray prefers to act stealthily—hiding things, tripping someone up, or spreading rumors around the school. Also, unlike the rest of the gang, he's known for his dirty jokes and ribbing, and loves to make the victims of his pranks blush and embarrass themselves.
If things get tough or adults show up, he's the first to play the innocent bystander and masterfully gets out of it.
Ray acts as Frankie's right-hand man and mischief-maker, giving him ideas, but he's also not averse to making fun of him, especially when it comes to damaging other people's things.

Chris
12 years old
‎
Appearance. She has a daring, tomboyish style that immediately sets her apart from other schoolgirls. She wears a red hoodie, which makes her easily recognizable, jeans, and sneakers. Her light brown hair is usually pulled back into a bun or casually tousled, and she has green eyes.
‎
Personality: A brash, sharp-tongued, and arrogant girl who was every bit as capable as the boys in her gang. She looked down on Lucas, enjoyed ridiculing him, and often provoked conflicts herself, but was also slightly more reasonable and cautious than the outspoken Butch.

Butch
13 years old
‎
Appearance: He looks like a classic street hooligan, trying to look older and tougher than his years. He has short dark hair, green eyes, and rugged features, and his most distinctive feature is a black leather jacket worn over a simple gray T-shirt and dark jeans.
‎
Personality: He was accustomed to resolving any disputes through force or intimidation, and he loved asserting himself at the expense of those weaker than him. However, behind his outward bravado lurked a cowardice that would surface as soon as the situation got out of control.
Butch acts as Frankie's loyal sidekick and muscle. He supports his leader in bullying, adds a menacing air to the group, and is ready to use his fists, but rarely takes the initiative himself and more often follows Frankie's lead.

Frankie
13 years old
‎
Appearance: He looks like the typical "leader" of a teenage gang. He has short black hair and brown eyes with a perpetual sly or sullen glint. He dresses in casual street clothes—a gray T-shirt, faded jeans, and black sneakers, with a dark green cap on his head.
‎
Personality: He's the one who leads the gang, comes up with the provocations, is the first to bully Lucas, and gives orders to the others. He's the most brazen, self-assured, and daring, but when faced with a real paranormal threat, his bravado quickly gives way to panic. With adults, he's bold but a little calmer.

He buys archives, hires private detectives, and hacks into classified databases—all to ensure that no important secret escapes his notice. He has an interest in Yegor Lynch. Lambton takes a particular interest in him, possibly due to Lynch's connection to the time portal. He is almost obsessed with recruiting Lynch and, perhaps, his friend John.

In one of his streams, Egor mentioned that Lily's last name is not Lynch, but he didn't reveal it.

Lucas is a short boy, approximately twelve years old, with dark hair and glasses. He wears white sneakers, dark pants, and a dark blue hoodie. Lucas is naive and strives to be like his uncle, whom he considers his idol. He doesn't always understand the consequences of his actions, which regularly gets him into trouble, but he is also capable of showing resourcefulness and even taking a leadership role in critical moments. Lucas regularly appears in various Lynch horror stories, often driving the plot. Here are a few examples of his involvement:
Slenderman. When Lily leaves for an exhibition, she asks Egor to keep an eye on Lucas. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that the boy also sees the mysterious man, leading to a tense confrontation with Slenderman.
Winter break. Visiting distant relatives, Lucas takes a video camera with him to film his own show, "The X-Files." However, from the very beginning of the trip, strange and frightening events await him.

In some stories, he acts as a "voice of reason" to his more experienced, but also more cautious uncle. He is the nephew of Yegor Lynch and the son of his sister Lily.

Summoning Luka requires two actions: swinging the sword and speaking the familiar's name. John performed only one action, thereby releasing Luka from the sword, but did not force the familiar to manifest, which is what speaking the name does. Thus, Luka waited for about a year to be called upon. Unbeknownst to him, Lynch contacts Luka, and Luka manifests. Initially wary of Luka, Lynch quickly began to use his services. But one day, Lynch finds John tied up in the kitchen. Almost immediately, Luka appears and says that "death looms over John," which is why Luka believes John is a danger to Lynch. Lynch sends Luka to retrieve the family jar of pickles, which John claims to want to kill himself with. While Luka searches for the jar, John tells Lynch about the torn pages from Bolton's journal in the basement. After Luka's return, Lynch goes to the basement to retrieve the pages. From the pages, Lynch learns the method of banishing Luka into the sword. Lynch then goes up to the attic and takes Luka's sword. Luka himself soon appears and freezes Lynch, but thanks to John's release, Luka was still imprisoned in the sword. Luka also drew an image in Mr. Bolton's journal.

Height: 191 cm. Age: Over 100 years.
Race: Familiar.
Luka is a familiar that has served various people and monsters for many centuries. Among his masters were knights, witches, and even Bolton. He is responsible for maintaining cleanliness and order in the house. Luka is incredibly loyal to his master and does not hold grudges. Luka is a familiar that faithfully serves his master, as well as his master's family members. Luka's current master is Mr. Bolton. Luka has a strong bond with his master, allowing him to sense his master's state from a great distance, even if the master is in a different time period. The familiar possesses an extensive list of abilities: creating objects out of thin air, flight, passing through walls, quick cooking, transforming into a "demonic" cat and raven, and fatigue resistance. Luka wears a butler's suit with white gloves and a red handkerchief. He has a small beard and a magnificent mustache. His hair is slicked back. Luka is a very polite and cultured familiar. He is extremely loyal to his master and is willing to do anything to ensure that his master's life is not cut short. It is unknown how many masters Luka has had or how long he has existed. Luka's first masters were the one-eyed witch sisters, who were also his creators. Later, it is known of a certain sect in London, whose leader was Luka's master until 1865. The leader of this sect was killed by Mr. Bolton in 1865, and Bolton has been Luka's master ever since. While serving Bolton, Luka learned how the time travel portal worked. One day, Bolton found his comrade hanging by his feet in his basement. It turned out that Luka had sensed that he was trying to rob Mr. Bolton and was planning to kill him for it. Bolton decided to banish Luka back into the sword. After that, the sword gathered dust in the attic for many years in a glass-topped box until John took it.

Sofia is Vincent Hart's daughter. She grows up in a rather gloomy environment: she lives with her undertaker father in a church cemetery, constantly encountering something frightening. This has led to the following character traits: She depends heavily on Vincent Hart and trusts him: he is her support in a frightening world. Therefore, when he is not around, she feels more vulnerable. She is sometimes curious about what is going on, but her curiosity does not make her reckless: she would rather peek and listen than rush directly into danger. Sofia is not one to talk much to strangers: she is withdrawn, cautious, and opens up only to those she truly trusts. She looks like a child of 10-12 years old: short and fragile.

Height: 184 cm. Age: 30 years.
Vincent Hart is Lynch and John's assistant, who, at their request, cleans up after the bodies of dead people and monsters. Vincent is a mortician who buries the dead near the church. He also helps Lynch and John dispose of the bodies of the dead on their property. Vincent has a daughter named Sophia and owns his own crematorium. Vincent wears a dark blue trench coat over black pants. A cross hangs around his neck. He has a short beard, but his hair is quite long, covered by a bandage. In addition, one of his eyes is gray and the other is black. In everyday life, Vincent behaves calmly and reservedly, and does not show unnecessary emotion. He does not even panic at the sight of a monster or a deadly situation. Vincent dislikes Lynch because he constantly walks around with his camera and films things that do not need to be filmed.
Vincent loves rock music and even has a guitar hanging in his house, symbolizing his love for this genre of music.
Vincent has a daughter named Sophia, about whom John and his friend knew nothing. He lives with his daughter in an old church in the middle of a cemetery. He also helps Lynch and his friend John, cleaning up after them the bodies of dead people and monsters that appear in their adventures.

Relationship: Bolton is Yegor Lynch's cousin.
Role in the plot. He previously owned a country house with a time travel portal. Bolton spent most of his life exploring different eras, collecting artifacts and storing them in the attic. In 2019, he faked his death and traveled to the future—all the way to 2023. When Yegor went missing, Bolton set out to find him, traveling through past timelines. He is an unshaven man, approximately 40-55 years old, with dark gray hair and green eyes. He is wearing a red sweater with a clip, a trench coat over it, black pants, and boots. He carries a green backpack. He also has high-tech gadgets from the future: glasses, a watch with a screen, and a sword.
Bolton is calm and thoughtful. He carefully analyzes everything before acting. In one storyline, he helps John and Lynch fight the Dreamers: he beheads one of them, and later finds and saves Lynch, giving him an antidote.
Before leaving, Bolton shares important information: he tells John that in the future, humanity ceased to exist due to the "purple land", and John himself does not exist in this future.
Later, Bolton appears in the government building: he sees Lynch and John escaping from mutants, pinpoints their location, warns them of the portal's instability, and even sends them instructions for using it. In the dungeon, he warns them of a dangerous beast—a mutated Lambton. Lambton eventually attacks the trio, knocking Bolton aside, attacking Lynch and John, and hurling them into the portal. Bolton engages the monster, but is defeated. Another interesting point: in one of Luka's horror stories, Bolton is mentioned—according to him, Bolton was Luka's former master, and he helped Yegor's uncle with the portal.

John and Lucas's relationship began when John saved the boy from Slenderman. Their relationship is one of mentorship and apprenticeship. John also acts as a father figure to Lucas, going out into the woods with him to cut down a Christmas tree. John feels responsible for Lucas and is distressed after losing him in the woods one day. John dislikes Lambton, which is understandable. John and Lynch share the same blood type. This was mentioned by Bolton, so it must have come in handy later, since he knew about it.
John always calls Yegor Lynch by his last name (Lynch).

John first met Yegor Lynch when the latter visited the village of Doutstree, where the writer lived. John was the only person who believed Lynch's claim that one of the villagers, Jacob, was a vampire. John, acting prudently, hung garlic and vervain throughout the village, stocked up on holy water, crosses, and aspen, and equipped Yegor for the battle with Jacob. The distrustful villagers ignored John's warnings of danger and harvested the garlic, for which they paid the price. John and Lynch went to the vampires' lair, where he defeated them with his wits. Although the villagers ultimately didn't believe the story of their rescue, Lynch and John exchanged contact information, and the writer saw his new friend off in his car. After the events in Doutstree, Lynch and John, although friends, do not yet work together regularly. Lynch calls or texts his friend whenever he needs help. John helps his comrade fight Slenderman by destroying his Slenderman notes. He finds and rescues Lynch at Granny's house (Granny and her family), blows up Freddy's Pizza (Five Nights at Freddy's), and kills a Yeti (Yeti Hunt). John and Lynch have a partner, Vincent Vampire, who works for them and helps them dispose of various corpses. Despite this connection, Vincent is the only one who is friends with John. Besides Lynch, John has about five other friends, although three of them are already dead, like Dustin Death Note. Lynch is John's best friend and his main supporter. As true friends, they often argue and fight, but their friendship remains intact. When John behaves too impulsively or foolishly towards others, Lynch often calms him down. John is in love with Lily. He often calls her Lily-Lupushka, although she doesn’t like it.

John (nicknamed "John Dangerous") is Lynch's partner and a close friend to Lily, Lucas, Dale, and many other characters. Along with Lynch, John investigates various paranormal phenomena around the world and is also a writer. His quick temper and eccentricity complement his partner's calm and melancholy, although his actions sometimes lead to unnecessary trouble.

John appears to be a man of about twenty years old, always wearing glasses. His hair is dark brown with thick bangs. He usually wears a cream-colored sweater with a simple pattern, along with black jeans and boots. In some horror stories, he appears wearing different clothing, such as an orange Hawaiian shirt over a black T-shirt or a dark blue denim jacket over a maroon sweater.

John is quite hot-tempered, easily provoked, and straightforward. His behavior is justified by the various psychological and physical traumas he suffered on missions with Lynch. He can be skeptical at times. He is squeamish and capricious in some matters, preferring not to sacrifice himself, but sometimes displays surprising ingenuity and resilience. He gets into many scrapes through accident, rudeness, or carelessness. He is timid. When Bolton tells John that there is no writer in his future, he takes this as a sign of his imminent demise, causing his former agility to give way to melancholy, bordering on depression, and constant paranoia. John now tries to avoid unnecessary risks, and the desire to leave something behind drives him to buy a dacha so that his friends can remember him there. Little information is available about John's life before meeting Lynch. It's known that John initially wanted to open a Domovaya pickup school, but ultimately became a writer. To finish writing his book in peace, he settled in the village of Doutstree, where he settled down and raised several cows.

Age: 27. Yegor Lynch is the protagonist of the Horror Story universe. He appears in all the stories and also serves as their cameraman, with a few exceptions where John or Lucas act as cameraman.
Lynch has dark hair, dark green eyes, and peach-colored skin. He wears blue glasses, but he doesn't use them most of the time. He wears black sneakers, dark jeans, a leather coat, and a gray sweater. He is approximately 180 centimeters tall.

Yegor is a rather sensible person. He never goes anywhere without a reason. He's also quite compassionate—he always tries to help those in trouble. In critical situations, he doesn't lose his common sense, unlike his friend. This has saved him in dangerous situations more than once. Throughout the history of horror stories, Yegor has killed people:
Victor (Wrong Turn)
Takeo Saeki (Curse)
Grendpa (Granny and her family)
The Cannibal Leader (Subway Horror)
Svetka (The Curse of the Abandoned Camp)
Dorothy (Winter Vacation)
2 Crazy Guys (Dyatlov Pass)
In the horror story "Snowmen," the ghosts pierced Yegor's chest, which he fortunately survived. And in the horror story "The Curse," you can see the scar from this blow. The only time Lynch ever went on a case as part of his official journalistic work was the very first horror story about a ghost. Subsequently, Lynch got into trouble purely by chance or while filming for his channel. This suggests he quit his job and became a blogger, so it's unclear why he still presents himself as a journalist.
Their income from videos is small, as mentioned in one of the horror stories. Lynch rarely calls his sister and doesn't remember Lucas's age (mentioned in the horror stories Stranger Things and Siren Head).
