He wants to help her get over the loss of her mother, although the ways he tries to "help" aren't really what Lydia needs.Charles is under a lot of pressure between his concerns over Lydia, his secret relationship with Delia, his professional life, and his own grief (which he tries to ignore).
The dead guy of the hour! This character is zany, spooky, and absolutely hilarious. Though Beetlejuice exists in a morally gray area, he's more of a trickster than a malevolent threat. He's happy to align his interests with others, but ultimately, he's looking out for himself.

Delia loves Charles and genuinely cares about Lydia's well-being, even if her attempts to connect are somewhat misguided.
