Perhaps there are also characters who are in positions of power or authority. Their stories could explore how power corrupts or how they use their power to either help or hinder those around them. Without reading the collection, it's difficult to be more specific about the main characters.
Isolation could also be a theme. There are likely characters in the collection who are in some way cut off from society or their normal support systems. This isolation can act as a catalyst for personal growth or a source of great despair, depending on how the characters respond to it.
Since I haven't had the chance to read 'Hunting Ghosts and Other Collected Short Stories', it's hard to say exactly who the main characters are. However, based on the title, there could be characters who are enthusiasts of hunting ghosts. They might be people with special abilities or just ordinary folks who are curious about the supernatural. There could also be the ghosts themselves as sort of 'characters' in a way, with their own backstories and motives for haunting.
'Last resort' was an American submarine movie. The movie was about a time in the near future when the United States was already riddled with holes. A US nuclear submarine became a hunting target because it ignored a command to fire a nuclear missile. They escaped from the surveillance system of the North Atlantic treaty organization and declared their independence. They claimed to be the world's smallest nuclear power with 17 nuclear warheads. The series will explore a society formed by fugitives, how they face tradition when they encounter it, and how they affect the entire community and responsibility. However, there were no details or comments about the movie.
Maybe some well - known bounty hunters from the Star Wars universe, such as Boba Fett or Dengar. Their stories of hunting and survival in different situations would be the focus. For example, Boba Fett is famous for his ruthlessness and efficiency. His story in the collected short stories might show how he overcomes difficult targets and deals with rival bounty hunters.
It's hard to determine the main characters precisely without having read the story. However, the burning man is bound to be a central figure. There could be other supporting characters like a bystander who witnesses the burning man's situation, a friend or a foe who has a role in his story. Maybe there's a character who has a past connection with the burning man and that connection drives the plot forward.
I don't know since I haven't read it. There could be a protagonist who is directly involved with the 'burning chrome' situation.
I don't know for sure as I haven't read the story. But it could be the homeowners, perhaps a mother, father, and their children. Or it might be a single person who lives alone in the house.
There might be the eponymous 'Haunter of the Dark'. This character is likely to be a source of great fear and mystery in the stories.
Typical characters include marginalized women. These are women who are often overlooked or oppressed in society. They might be poor, single, or from a lower social class.
I'm not sure specifically who the authors are in this collection. It could be a mix of many different authors.
