Ezekiel Holloway

Ezekiel "Zeke" Holloway is the main protagonist and playable character of the video game adaption of The Haunted Mansion.
== Biography ==
In his life, Zeke was raised as an orphan and had to learn to defend for himself. In his adulthood, he wanted to become a writer but ran into many writer's blocks. 
Reading an ad in the newspaper about Assistant Caretaker for a mansion, Zeke heads to the mansion and enters the building, where he is greeted by six friendly ghosts, but he passes out in fright. Zeke wakes up in a circular room with a woman's head in a crystal ball. The woman introduces herself as Madame Leota and explains her situation. The mansion has been overrun with evil spirits and an evil man named Atticus Thorn has taken over the estate, locking up all the ghosts as his prisoners. Zeke is then given the Beacon of Souls, an ancient artifact that shoots light at enemies, as well as the white soul gem, which allows the Beacon to function weakly. Zeke is tasked with ridding the mansion of evil spirits and keeping the Beacon out of Thorn's hands. 
Zeke then goes through the various rooms of the mansion, starting in the Great Hall, then making his way into the Foyer, Conservatory and Game Room, where he meets the Duelist Ghost, who gives Zeke the purple Soul Gem in exchange for his death certificate. Afterwards, Zeke enters the downstairs hallway and clears the rooms, meeting up with the Organist and Beheaded Knight Ghosts, who give him the orange and yellow soul gems. After clearing the downstairs portion, Zeke enters the Upstairs Hallway and sets about clearing the rooms, meeting the Opera Singer, Old Lady and Pirate's Ghosts, who give him the Blue and Red Soul Gems while the Pirate gives Zeke a ring that belonged to a member of the Order of Shadows. 
After obtaining 999 souls, Zeke enters a hidden room behind a portrait in the foyer, where he enters a circular room and confronts Atticus Thorn, who steals the Soul Gems from Zeke and turns into a giant worm. Thinking quickly, Zeke inserts Madame Leota into the Beacon and uses her crystal ball to power the Beacon, defeating Atticus Thorn once and for all. The six friendly ghosts thank Zeke for freeing them of Thorn's wrath and the souls that Zeke collected move on to heaven. Afterwards, Zeke decides to stay at the mansion as the caretaker of the estate and follows his dreams of becoming a writer, detailing the events of the game into a biography of his experiences. 
== Personality ==
Zeke is shown to be timid at the beginning of the game, being afraid of the various enemies he encounters but throughout the course of the game, begins to become more courageous. He is also selfless, wanting to help the ghosts stop Atticus Thorn. 
== Trivia ==
Zeke is actually based on the caretaker from the Disneyland amusement park Haunted Mansion ride.
