Dr. Dieter Biedermeier
Dr. Dieter Biedermeier
His current whereabouts are unknown, but chances are his brain is in a jar, hooked up to some machine, halfway across the galaxy. Too bad, 'cause he seemed like a swell fellow.

Greta Beidermeier
Greta Biedermeier
We were hired by who we thought was Dr. Biedermeier to find his daughter, Greta. Turns out it was really some vile Fungi from Planet Yuggoth, setting a trap for us. During the case Greta was living in Washington DC, but afterwards she moved to Arkham, ostensibly to learn more about the disappearance of her father, but more likely to get to know Barney a little better. Barney finds this most agreeable.

Gus Farcus
Gus Farcus
Ever since our run in with the Planar Bowlers, Barney and I like to hone our bowling skills. Farcus has worked at that bowling alley since the 70's. Nothing more need be said.

Zelda Herschwitz
Zelda Herschwitz
Proprieter of the Arkham Bed and Breakfast, Zelda is a stodgy broad obsessed with Hummels. She reluctantly agreed to stop renting Room 5 after SPONGE convinced her the Headboard she bought at the Ezekial Jones auction is really a portal to the Dreamlands.

Karma Johnson
Karma Johnson
One of many local crackpots. She's into all those ridiculous "cosmic pastimes": Tarot cards, palm reading, star gazing, tea leaves, chicken bones, frenology. Barney likes to consult with her on certain supernatural phenomena, but I say she's whacked. She works out of the Frenology Hut.

Dean Maguire
Dean Maguire
The Dean of Sciences doesn't seem to get along with Barney, nor does he take the work of SPONGE very seriously. However, our file on his Uncle Zacharius has proven extremely useful in convincing the Dean to continue funding our reserch.

Chadwick Pabodie
Chadwick Pabodie
The editor of the Arkham Advertiser is a nosy busybody. He has a keen interest in the occult and SPONGE's involvement. He writes nasty editorials about Barney, so we sometimes write back under pseudonyms.

Tom Redleather
Tom Redleather
The only surviving Native American in Arkham, Tom is a highly spiritual person, and knows that more goes on in this town than normal people can understand. Tom has a respect for SPONGE, but worries that we tamper with energies we shouldn't... if only he knew the half of it.

Angus Romero
Angus Romero
The guy who runs the Arkham Funeral Home. He's got a bad temper, and a peculiar diet, but he does fantastic mortuary work. I highly recommend him.

Skippy
Skippy
The lad who works the cemetery grounds. Sometimes if the body for an open-casket funeral isn't ready in time, they'll just use Skippy. He's a bit odd, but trustworthy. Anyone that dumb has got to be on the up and up.

Cricket Swanson
Cricket Swanson
The sassy lass that works at Arkham Life certainly seems to have the hots for Dr. Barney (as she calls him). This certainly affords us a decent rate with our insurance deals. Barney is mum on his feelings for her ("Too busy to think of such things" and blah blah blah).

Matrin and Uta Taylor
Matrin and Uta Taylor
Since the beginning of SPONGE, Matrin Taylor has been a useful and still willing participant (despite all the horrible stuff that's happened to him over the years). He has insisted that he never be considered the historian. His wife, Uta doesn't much like us, so I guess the feeling is mutual.

Dr. Howard Tillinghast
Dr. Howard Tillinghast
The man who runs Arkham Asylum is certainly a good candidate for residence there. Dr. Tillinghast has serious personal issues, coming from a long line of crackpots. Still, he does wonders with the historians we've left with him.

Frank West
Dr. Frank West
One of Barney's academic chums. The guy has something of a chip on his shoulder, due mostly to the fact that his grandfather used to bring dead bodies back to life in the early 40's, and the whole town won't let it go. Other than that, he's nice enough. West has taken up the occult struggle as well. He gives the term "Hatchet Man" new meaning.

Councilman Whately
Councilman Whately
Probably the most open-minded member of the Arkham town council, and quite a big Elvis fan. We saved Whately when Dimensional Vampires were controlling the entire Council. After the episode, he alone was willing to admit he'd been compromised, and as a result is the only member of the Council who gets a Christmas card.

Alison Witherspoon
Alison Witherspoon
The County Coroner has quite a head on her shoulders. Lives over in the old Tillinghast place. She's currently single, and I know a wiley and motivated man of Irish descent who has his sights set on her. She can not resist.
