| - He is introduced into the story when he is seen sitting in his room, drawing a butterfly, before heading off to meet his bride-to-be, Victoria, and to practice for their wedding. He first meets Victoria when he sits down to play the piano in her house and she approaches him. He falls in love with Victoria as they have their first conversation. His wedding rehearsal does not go well as he cannot remember his vows, drops the ring, and accidentally sets Lady Everglot's dress on fire. After being scolded by Pastor Galswells, he runs into the forest on the edge of town to practice his vows, but in the process wakes Emily up from the dead. He runs away but Emily catches up to him at the bridge and attempts to kiss him. This causes Victor to faint and wake up in the Land of the Dead. He was shocked to found out that he accidentally married Emily, the corpse bride. As a wedding present, Emily give him Scraps, Victor's long-dead dog. Even though Victor is happy to see Scraps again, he convinces Emily to take them both back to the Land of the Living to see his parents, upon mentioning his mother and her disapproval. But his real plan was to see Victoria while Emily waits for him in the woods. Victor confesses to Victoria that he was terrified of marriage at first, but then upon meeting her he wanted to be with her forever. However, Emily follows his footprints and found him with Victoria. Believing that he's cheating on her, Emily pulled him back to the Land of the Dead. During their argument, Victor hurt Emily's feelings by slipping his tongue saying, "It was a mistake, I would never marry you!" Feeling bad for hurting Emily, Victor went and apologized to her and they make up while playing the piano together. Just as they make up, the dead announces a new arrival. The new arrival turns out to be Mayhew, former employee of the Van Dorts' company, who just died by a coughing fit and gets run over by the carriage he was driving. Mayhew tells Victor that Victoria is getting married to a Lord. Heartbroken, Victor walks out. Later, Victor overhears a conversation between Emily and Elder Gutknecht. Gutknecht tells Emily that death had already departed them since the law said "'Til death do we part" and that the only way to make the marriage official is to have Victor repeat the vows at the Land of the Living and then drink poison to die in order to be by her side. Victor, believing Victoria have moved on, agreed to do so even to the fact that he could never go back to the Land of the Living. (It's likely he would be able to go back). The wedding takes place "upstairs" with the undead and a few of their loved ones as the guests and Elder Gutnecht as the priest. Victoria arrives at Victor and Emily's wedding and watches as Victor says his vows. Emily, when she saw Victoria, begin to have second thoughts and stops Victor from drinking the poison. She tells him that her dreams were taken from her and she almost stole someone else's. Victor was surprised and happy to see Victoria, but their reunion was short-lived. Lord Barkis arrived and tries to take Victoria away, but Victor steps up and fights him. Victor was later disarmed by Barkis, but then got saved by Emily from the sword. Victor watch as Lord Barkis makes a "toast" to Emily, and accidentally drinks the poison and dies in front of them. The undead take Barkis away to the Land to be punished. Victor turns back to Emily to keep his promise, but Emily tells him that he had kept his promise by setting her free. Emily gives the ring back to him. Victor watches as Emily walks out of the church and turned into thousands of butterflies, symbolizing that she has found peace. He marries Victoria the next day. He is a minor character in the MYCUN series.

When he is presented the ring, he accidentally drops it, proving that he is clumsy and when he goes to pick it up, he accidentally sets his future mother-in-law's dress on fire. Victor is then instructed to "learn his vows" by Pastor Gastwells. In the woods, Victor is sad that he messed up, but he's determined to be a great groom for his lovely Victoria. He practices his vows and puts Victoria's ring on a twig, but the twig turns out to be a finger for a corpse named Emily, who thinks that Victor is her husband. He tried to escape from her but catches him at the bridge where she kisses him and Victor ends up fainting and wakes up in Land of the Dead. He tried to run away again but Emily catches onto him and gives him his old dog Scraps as a wedding present. Wanting to profess his love to Victoria, he convinces that Emily should meet his parents so they go to Elder Gultnech for a way to go back up. The only way to go back is to say "Hopscotch". Victor leaves Emily in the woods so he can head back and talk to Victoria. He confesses that he's in love with her and plans to marry her soon. She admits that she's in love with Victor too and can't wait. Before their lips can touch, Victor sees Emily from behind and tries to tell Victoria that he accidentally married her and Emily spirits him back to the Land of the Dead, before Victor can reach his beloved's hand. Emily angrilly tells Victor that Victoria's the other woman, but Victor knows that it was Emily who's the other woman and decides to break up with her, saying that they're too different, even confessing that he would never marry her. Victor then decides to apologize to Emily and becomes her friend by playing the piano with her. Even though Victor is in love with Victoria, he gets heartbroken when he learns that she's being forced to marry Lord Barkis Bittern. Victor, out of despair decides to marry Emily above the Land of the Living and kill himself by drinking a poisioned goblet. As he does the wedding ceremony by force, Emily notices Victoria, who escaped her groom and made it to the church and lets him be with her. Victor and Victoria are happy to be reunited. Suddenly, Barkis, Victoria's groom and Emily's murderer comes in and prepares to kill her, but he and Victor have a sword fight, though Victor has a fork. Before Victor could be stabbed, Emily stands in front of Barkis and tells him to get out. Victor, Victoria and Emily watch Barkis die from drinking the potion and the Land of the Dead citizens take him away. Victor tells Emily he made a promise, but Emily told him he kept it by setting her free. As a reward, she gives him back Victoria's ring saying that she can do the same for him. Victor smiles, happy that he's marrying Victoria at last. He and Victoria then watch Emily turn into a bunch of butterflies and fly into the moonlight.
