Louis
Late Teens-Early 20s. A fairly ordinary freshman at Reitman College. Louis is an Omega Chi Delta pledge, which explains why he's dressed as a girl--part of his pledge challenge was to sneak into the third floor of the Zeta Beta Zeta sorority house. Able to see ghosts because of recent brain surgery, Louis freaks out when he sees ghosts in the house, and winds up telling his story to Middleman and Wendy. Due to his unusual ability, Louis works with Wendy to find out what the ghosts want, and becomes the conduit through which they speak in their own voices--which includes a group of bickering sorority sisters and, ultimately, Middleman himself. Guest Star;
Alley
Late Teens-Early 20s. "Your typical sorority girl. Small, blonde, flat ironed". Alley is a Zeta Beta Zeta sister who is initially very suspicious of Wendy's arrival at the house as an out-of-town sister. However, Alley's actually a nice, earnest person who comes to trust Wendy (and vice versa) and gives her advice on her current romantic disaster. Alley is aware that her sisters are not who they seem to be and that Eleanor is part of some weird plan and she hastily confides her suspicions to Wendy. Guest Star;
Eleanor
Late Teens-Early 20s. Plain, short and nerdy, not at all your typical sorority sister, Eleanor nevertheless is a sister at Zeta Beta Zeta, and she welcomes the visiting Wendy as an out-of-town sister. Despite her apparent friendliness, Eleanor is actually a brilliant, but evil, physics major, whose determination to end the Greek presence on campus--mostly because she herself could never make it in to a sorority-- fuels her scheme to build a quantum processor to transplant the souls of her own friends into the bodies of the Zeta Beta Zeta leaders. A force to be reckoned with, Eleanor will stop at nothing, even the transplanting of her own soul into the Middleman's body.sptv050769 Guest Star;

Late Teens-Early 20s, All Ethnicities. This Zeta Beta Zeta sorority sister is first seen as a mere ghost of herself--literally, since Eleanor has placed another soul in her body.

ZBZ Sister
Late Teens-Early 20s, All Ethnicities. The chairsister of the Zeta Beta Zeta Welcome Committe, this young woman excitedly welcomes Sister Wendy to the Reitman University chapter of Zeta Beta Zeta. Co-Star;
