History:
(Ectokid#9 (fb) - BTS) - Anabelle was married to
Patrick Baldwin and they dearly loved each other, but Patrick was
involved in a car crash that left him a paraplegic. Their relationship
began to change and she sought solace in an affair with Mark King.
Unable to cope, Patrick distanced himself and eventually suicided by
shooting himself in the heart. Grief-stricken, Anabelle kept the bullet
under her pillow and his ashes in a shrine in the house. But by
Anabelle
clinging to the bullet meant dead Patrick could not move on to the
afterlife past the Ectosphere (a hidden parallel but supernatural
world). Ghost Patrick was able to direct
Anabelle to contact young Dex Mungo, who could easily communicate with
the dead as he saw both the Ectosphere and the real world. Meanwhile,
kept uninformed, Mark King grew suspicious and murderously jealous.
(Ectokid#9 (fb)) -
Anabelle secured Mungo's services, paying him handsomely. Mungo relayed
information between Anabelle and Patrick; they both still loved each
other dearly and
truths were graciously revealed. Anabelle was able to let go of her
grief by
dropping the bullet into the ashes.
(Ectokid#9) - King confronted Mungo in a bar where he
and Anabelle were celebrating life and letting go. King fired his gun
at Mungo but Anabelle willingly took the bullet and it pierced her
heart. While King cradled her dead body, Mungo watched her soul rise
into the Ectosphere.

She's not given a surname in-story, but given her devotion to her husband, it's assumed.

CLARIFICATIONS
:
Anabelle Baldwin has no known connections to:
Patrick Baldwin was the deceased husband of Anabelle
Baldwin. Even apart, they both loved each other very much. When he was
alive, he was involved a car crash that left him a paraplegic and he
began hating himself, driving him mad. He took a handgun and shot
himself in the heart to end it all. Anabelle kept the bullet under her
pillow and the grief endured, but also bound him in the supernatural
Ectosphere, preventing him from moving on and healing. After death,
he also realized that he should've opened up and spoken to her about
his feelings when alive. Later, ghost Patrick was able to communicate
to her to seek out Dex Mungo as he could easily commune with those in
the Ectosphere and Mungo was able to relay brief information between
them that allowed Anabelle to let go of her grief and move on (and
ultimately let Patrick move on as well).
--Ectokid#9
Mark King was the jealous lover of Anabelle Baldwin.
She began an affair with him after her husband Patrick was made a
paraplegic, but Patrick's suicide greatly impacted her life. Eventually
ghost Patrick managed to have Anabelle contact Dex Mungo, who could
commune easily with the dead so that both could move on. But paranoid
King thought Anabelle was having an affair with Mungo and
confronted him in a bar. Mungo slugged him back with an ectoplasmic
blackjack but King fired his handgun. Anabelle instead
willingly took the bullet and it hit her heart. King cradled Anabelle's
dead body as her invisible soul passed over into the Ectosphere.
