Round 5: Tossup 8

A character with this first name falsely believes that General Tilney is a murderer due to her desire to be a Gothic heroine.

In that novel’s frame story, (10[1])a ghost with this name tells Mr. Lockwood to let her in (10[1])after he discovers her diary. (10[1])That character with this first name has her (10[2])story told by the housekeeper Nelly Dean, including her marriage to Edgar Linton and romance with Heathcliff.
