Sheriff Thomas Pembroke

Sheriff Thomas Pembroke is a main character in Polaroid (2019). He is the head of police in the town and was a prime target to be murdered by Roland Joseph Sable for supposedly causing his daughter to commit suicide. Pembroke had invited Sable's daughter out for a night out and was trying to get some inappropriate photos her father took of her. When her father found out and snapped, he murdered Thomas's three other friends and would've murdered him had the police not found him. Pembroke had been tied to a chair and had a white sheet over his head. Sable was about to stab him to death when the police came in and shot him about five times. Sable fell into a tank of water and was electrocuted when a lamp fell in it. Years later, Pembroke protected Bird and her friends until the demon, the ghost of Roland Sable, murdered him.
Method of Death
When Sheriff Pembroke found Bird and her friends in the closed school, he quickly tries to usher the out of the building. However, Bird suspects him to be the killer and takes his photo with the camera. After explaining the past, the spirit appears. Pembroke shoots it twice through the chest and shoulder, but the entity picks up the photo of him and continues to rip it in half vertically, which causes Pembroke to do the same.
Sheriff Pembroke is portrayed by Mitch Pileggi.
