Scarah Screams

Scarah Screams is a 2010/2011-introduced and all-around character. She is a banshee and a student at Monster High. As a creature who announces death, Scarah has the hardest time convincing her fellow students that she isn't announcing their demise just because she's talking to them. Because of this, Scarah has taken up telepathy classes so she can communicate with others by way of mind-talk, which doesn't generate fear like regular talking does. The one thing it doesn't help her with is cheering during a fearleading routine, which is why she has no interest in re-joining the Fear Squad ever again. Scarah is involved with the exchange program Monster High offers for students from Ireland and is the secretary of the student council. She's in a relationship with Invisi Billy, whom she can interact with with no problems even when he's invisible because of her mindreading ability.

Portrayers
She is voiced in English by Erin Fitzgerald until the first half of Volume 4. But currently, she is voiced by Paula Rhodes.

Personality
Scarah is shown to be a helpful, but kind of quiet girl, who doesn't like to stand out. Even if a tad distant, she's still very friendly, especially to those close to her. She is shown to be compassionate, and possesses the ability to "read minds." In "Kind: The Shockumentary," she is one of the few ghouls to still raise their hands after the second question, showing she is not self-centered. She enjoys to engage in writing.

Appearance
Scarah Screams has unusual white eyes, without discernible pupils or irises. She has black hair, worn in a 60's mod fashion, with a lime green Alice band. Her skin is a pale blue to greenish tone--not dissimilar to Frankie's--and she has blue to greenish lips. In the cartoon, Scarah is depicted wearing a lime green halter top with an olive green mini-skirt, and matching Alice band. The prototype doll also wears a baseball-style jacket, in black with hot pink trim.

Powers and Abilites
Banshee Wail: She has a "wail" or a scream of a banshee, also can be referred to as a banshee's yell. It is also known as shrieking. This is yet to be heard or seen in the cartoon series or TV specials, though.

Mind Reading: She has an ability to ready other people's mind like reading their feelings and imagination, not just the words they say in their heads. Scarah also did not come with this power as a banshee, but only because she went to "Telepathy Camp".

Family
Scarah is the daughter of the Banshee, which, in Irish mythology, is a powerful monster female spirit (in Monster High, a ghost) which in the language, Old Irish, was known as "woman of the mounds". Her mother is a female spirit which in Ireland and parts of Scotland, is a monster who heralds the death of a member of one of the prominent Gaelic families, usually by shrieking or keening. Her father is unknown about, however.

Friends
The Facebook update of November 19, 2011 mentioned that Scarah helps Spectra Vondergeist with improving her makeup choices and skills, implying they are friends.

Scarah is good friends with Hoodude Voodoo, who has a locker near her. Scarah likes Hoodude, because he is a good listener, and Hoodude, being a sensitive soul, just appreciates all positive attention he gets.

She is friends with Iris Clops, shown in most webisodes, but most prominently in "Kind: The Shockumentary," as they forgive each other after arguing.

Romance
Heath Burns has, four times (in "Hyde Your Heart," "Ghostly Gossip," "Hoodoo That Voodoo That You Do," and "Fright On!"), tried to impress Scarah.

In the Spring 2012 issue of Teen Scream, she says that she has a boyfriend, but his identity was never revealed and a year later, she was single again. Her new crush was Invisi Billy, whom she hooked up with in "Scarah-Voyant".
