• Single mother Patricia MacCready (Melinda McGraw) is a devout member of Rome's Light of God Baptist Church and a regular at Reverend Anderson's church teas.
• Mildred (Grace Zabriskie) is one of the old guard of parishioners at Anderson's church. Full of spit and vinegar, Mildred lives alone and says what's on her mind
• Blake Morrow (Lee Tergesen) is a former police officer on death row for murdering his partner's wife.
• The man who calls himself Sidney (Brent Spiner) first appears in Rome soon after Kyle and Reverend Anderson successfully exorcise little Joshua Austin. But Sidney's dapper appearance and smiling demeanor hide a malevolence.
