Biography[]
Ignition[]
Allegro is first mentioned in Ignition: Part I, when Vinny notices a paraGhost thread perpetuating the theory that there are multiple users under the handle Allegro.
Between Ignition: Part I and Ignition: Part II Allegro apparently commented on a paraGhost thread Vinny Howell started about forming an investigation team. Later that week, Allegro told Vinny and his partner to meet him in Ticonderoga, New York. In Ignition: Part II, Allegro is revealed to be male.
In Ignition: Part III, Allegro finally appears, first wearing a hood and a facemask, though his unusually small stature is visible. He later reveals his face to Vinny. His face is described as "thin, juvenile, with a weathered wisdom plastered across his features despite the childlike mirth sparkling in his eyes."[2]
Allegro appears fully in Ignition: Part V, in which he reveals that the Bennett House is in fact his own house, and that he fabricated both the poltergeist activity and the appearance of El Fantasma (really Greg Lopez). He reveals his name to be Taul Bennett, and proposes that Vinny and Sasha become the new face of Seventh Circle.[3]
