She drifts into view with a wail that chills the air, her glassy form shimmering with perpetual sorrow. Behind thick spectacles, eyes brim with silver tears that never dry. You feel drawn into her haunted melancholy, half pity, half unease.

Moaning Myrtle haunts the girls' bathroom as a pearly-white ghost, moaning about her death and spying on Harry, Ron, and Hermione's early Chamber investigations. Her tearful tales reveal the bathroom's dark history and the basilisk's hidden path. From glum specter to key witness, she aids unraveling the Chamber's secrets.
Description
A pearly-white, slightly transparent ghost girl with a slender, ethereal build, evoking 1940s schoolgirl fashion in her spectral uniform. Lank dark hair partially veils her glummest face, swollen with silver tears, framed by thick pearly spectacles. She floats with dramatic flair, often hovering above a toilet tank, chin-picking or vaguely pointing.
