Freddie Mueller

Lorraine Rockwell (Aunt)

***THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS please read chapter 4 before continuing!***

**Freddie Mueller** was Mitch’s older brother who died when Mitch was very young.

## Personality

Freddie was ridiculously lazy, obnoxious and loud, and didn’t take anything seriously. His favorite thing to do was mess with people (especially Mitch) and had little consideration for other people’s feelings. He enjoyed mean pranks, stealing bikes, setting things on fire, and tormenting his little brother.

As much as Freddie enjoyed picking on Mitch, he also deeply cared about him, and occasionally showed this through defending Mitch against his first neighborhood bully. Because their father, Tom, had little involvement in their lives, Freddie would sometimes have to be the one in charge of taking care of Mitch when Henrietta was out. On a good day, they would get along fine. Most of the time however, Freddie was usually locking Mitch in bathrooms, throwing him into swimming pools, or leaving him alone at a park. He was bossy and liked telling Mitch what to do.

Freddie and Mitch fought a lot. Sometimes play-fighting, but it was common for their playing to get out of hand and for Henrietta to be forced to break them up. It never got bad enough to do serious harm.

## Appearance

Before Freddie died, he looked somewhat similar to Mitch. They share the same pointed lip and long face and chin like their mother, but Freddie was not as thin as Mitch. He had a slightly more angular nose and deceptively kind eyes. He had spiky red hair and sideburns.

Freddie tended to wear military-inspired clothing such as camo-print, combat boots, and dog tags.
