Persephone (pronounced per-SEH-fə-nee) is a character in the Henry Skreever book series, and Prunella often imagines herself as Persephone. At the end of the series, it is possible that Persephone is a 'spirit from the noble order', and it is also said she she dies at the end of the book (if she was a spirit from the noble order, she would not really have died.) Marina and Prunella pronounced her name 'Per say phone' until Mr. Ratburn corrected Prunella.

Trivia

• She is possibly a parody of Hermione from Harry Potter, the series Henry Skreever is based off of, although the character neither dies at the end of the series nor is a spirit.
• Mr. Ratburn says she is likely named after Persephone from Greek mythology.
• Prunella at first mispronounces the name as Perse-PHONE. Before the Harry Potter movies came out, a lot of fans were saying Her-my-OWN instead of Her-MY-oh-nee. *Hermione is also a name from Greek mythology.
• In the credits of "The Tardy Tumbler," her name is misspelled as Perawphone.
