The part of Electrospasm which was once Harold Smears, murderer, was all but burned from him upon the electric chair. All that's left is a polite, apologetic spirit of punishment. -Epitaph In game: Electrospasm is a Wraith who is first encountered as a Restless Spirit in The Unusual Suspects, where he is bound to the electric chair that sits abandoned in a storage room in the basement of the Hell Street precinct. In life, Electrospasm was named Harold Smears, a man found guilty of murder. In his own words, he "never meant to kill", meaning his crime may have actually been manslaughter, though he does agree that he probably deserved his punishment: execution by electric chair. He was the last person to be executed this way in Gravenville.
