+'''Alan Fergus Turnpike''' ran the urban legends website "[[Myth City]]".
 The memory of [[Alan Turnpike's father|his father]] suffering from a condition that caused raspy speech and acute chest pains haunted him all his life.
-In [[2016]], he was in his forties or fifties. He studied in [[Coal Hill School]]. During his school years, at the end of [[1980s]] or beginning of [[1990s]], after hearing rumours about [[Alice Parsons' house]], he was passing by the house and saw Faceless Alice in a window. Thinking that it could be a girl trapped in the house by the owner, he called the police, then broke into the house several times. Once he was discovered by Alice Parsons. He returned to the house one more time after that and saw Faceless Alice, a girl without a face, stroking the hair of sleeping Alice Parsons.
+In [[2016]], he was in his forties or fifties. He studied in [[Coal Hill School]]. During his school years, at the end of [[1980s]] or beginning of [[1990s]], he heard rumours about [[Alice Parsons]]' [[Alice Parsons' house|house]] and himself saw Faceless Alice in the window. This prompted his lifelong interest in the house and legends surrounding it. Several times he broke into the house and was once discovered and confronted by the owner. Once he saw Faceless Alice, a girl without a face, up close stroking the hair of sleeping Alice Parsons.
-Since then, he started the site "Myth City" to collect information about the house. Reports about Faceless Alice never changed in twenty plus years.
+Alan worked in a charity. In his free time, he was running the site "Myth City", which he had started to collect eyewitness accounts about the house.
-Alan worked in a charity. [[Constantine Oliver]] persuaded his employer to fire him for harming his business prospects and prohibited Alan to discus the property. He threatened to sue Alan if the website is not taken down.
+After [[Constantine Oliver]] acquired the house in [[July]] [[2015]], he persuaded Alan's employer to fire him for lowering the house's value and kept threatening Alan to make him take the website down.
-In 2016 Alan lived on [[Meadow Row]] near [[Elephant and Castle tube station]] on the top floor of a set of flats. [[Andrea Quill|Miss Quill]], [[Ram Singh]], [[April MacLean]] and [[Tanya Adeola]] visited him to ask about the old stone house. During her visit Alan became very attracted to Miss Quill.
+In 2016 Alan lived on [[Meadow Row]] near [[Elephant and Castle tube station]] on the top floor of a set of flats and owned a brown [[Mini]]. When [[Andrea Quill|Miss Quill]], [[Ram Singh]], [[April MacLean]] and [[Tanya Adeola]] visited him with questions about the old stone house, he was completely enamoured by Miss Quill.
-When she was arrested, he posted bail for her and drove her to a laboratory in [[Brompton]] and then back to the house. During the confrontation with the [[female bone spider]], he first tried to save [[Tanya Adeola]] by frontal attack and then managed to distract the spider long enough for the others to entangle her legs.
+Thus, when told by April that Miss Quill was arrested, he posted bail for her and helped her find and free Tanya. During the confrontation with the [[female bone spider]] living in the house, he even entered into a hopeless physical altercation with the much larger spider and then bravely served as a distraction while Miss Quill and [[Amira]] entangled the spider's legs.
-Alan drove Tanya to the Parsons family vault where they found the [[baby bone spider]] and brought it back to the house.
+By now fully onboard with Tanya's investigation of the house, Alan helped her find the [[baby bone spider|spider's daughter]] and bring her back to her mother.
-When Oliver relinquished the control of the house, Alan was appointed its caretaker. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Stone House (novel)|The Stone House]]'')
+After Mr Oliver relinquished the control of the house, Alan was appointed its caretaker.
+He was hoping for a date with Miss Quill but she remained noncommittal. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Stone House (novel)|The Stone House]]'')
