Ghost Rider: Nights on Fire
Ellie Kelley for Barbara Ketch
Danny's older sister. His closest friend and confidant. When our story starts, Barb is currently in a coma, after she and Danny witnessed a strange ritual that wasn't meant for their eyes. Barb's confident, adventurous, and driven. Bit of a tomboy. Never takes no for an answer, and cannot turn down a dare or a mystery. Before her coma, Barb ran a growing YouTube channel called "Burn the Witch", focusing on strange tales and urban legends throughout the city.
Even though she's presently comatose, she features in flashbacks and such-- and there are plans for this character to appear in other capacities for future installments of the Ghost Rider's story, and the wider MADU.

[Trying to convince a skittish Danny to come along with her to investigate reports of strange happenings at the cemetery] Come on, Danny. Don't be scared-- I'm right here with you. Any axe murderers try and pounce out of the shadows and take a swing at you, I'll kick the shit outta them myself!
[A vlog on reports of another creature called the Ghost Rider, traveling the country. Barb's sharing the info like she's telling a scary story around a campfire] Legends say that the Rider prowls the interstate late at night, bringing the fires of Hell itself down on hijackers, human traffickers, and drug smugglers. No one's ever outrun him. No one... ever... escapes.
