I know we're better than this. The only thing I'm not skeptical about is human nature. Our city has rallied before. In times of disaster, the best in people shines through. I believe that now more than ever.
―Sarah about people's actions in the apocalypse

Sarah Bennett is the protagonist of The Supernatural Skeptic's Guide to New Orleans.

Pre-Apocalypse[]

In her early childhood, Sarah was a kind, empathetic, rational, but reserved girl. Regretting the time when she turned a blind eye and walking pass to two boys bullying another kid in a wheelchair while they hold her down and stole her backpack.

Her parents were killed in a car accident when she was 11 she was devastated. Missing her parents and convinced by her grandma, a former Voodoo Mambo (female priest), in Haiti she should contact her parents by praying to gods. However she soon came to dismay and lack of response she decided it was a lie denouncing the gods, and became an atheist

Sarah years later she went on to college, double majoring in Communication and Psychology with a minor in American Folklore, doing so in order to strengthen her skeptic mind and use evidence to debunk claims of voodoo gods, and urban legends. This led her to create and host the "Supernatural Skeptics Guide to New Orleans" podcast and led to her to investigate supernatural and true crime regarding the history of New Orleans. Hoping to win the Pulitzer Prize some day for dedication and innovation in her field.
