Alice Ghostley

Birthday: August 14, 1926 Birth Place: Eve, Missouri, USA Birth Name: Alicia Ghostley

During Samantha's second pregnancy, Endora decided it was time to find her daughter a maid. Mainly because "El Cheapo", Darrin would not hire one. So came Esmeralda to the Stephens. A shy, retiring witch , who had lost most of her powers, Esmeralda was looking for a "safe little harbour" where she could feel needed and get some of her confidence back. Unfortunately when her confidence levels dwindled Esmeralda would , quite literally, "fade" from sight. Her romantic dalliances often ended in disaster. She used to play a game of hard to get with much sought after beau Ramone Verona (a salad chef at the Warlock Club). However he'd play hard to get and she'd play a cinch. Esmeralda suffered from allergies and bouts of hiccups. When such an involuntary act would happen it would activate supernatural powers which would materialise the thought closest to her cerebellum (her words). So it wasn't unusual to find Mother Goose, goats, performing seals, Julius Caesar or Santa Claus in the Stephens living room. She finally found happiness with her old boyfriend Ferdy, who was every bit as inept as her!
