Ronald Wyatt

Background

Ronald Wyatt is a Edgar Allen Poe fanatic in England.

During the events of Torture Garden (1967) played by Jack Palance

At a carnival, a Carnival Barker invites the public to see the Torture Garden for half a crown. Inside, Dr. Diabolo performs his torture show where he shows off different torture devices. He shows them the electric chair and says the man sitting within it is deserving of his fate. Dr. Diabolo pulls the switch and seemingly kills the man sitting within. He invites the people at the show to see his real Torture Garden for five pounds. Gordon Roberts, Colin Williams, Carla Hayes, Dorothy Endicott, and Ronald pay the money and Dr,. Diabolo drops all of their money into a fire. He introduces them to a waxwork figure he calls Atropos. He says that Atropos can reveal to each of them their own inner evil. He continues that by showing them their future, they may be able to avoid it. Colin is the first to walk up to Atropos. The next to walk over to Atropos is Carla, then Dorothy goes next, and finally Ronald goes.

Ronald is at a showing of Volumes From Early American Editions of E.A. Poe 1809-1849 from the collection of Lancelot Canning when a woman similar looking to Atropos walks by. Ronald picks up a first edition and another Antique Collector mentions how it would make a great addition to anyone's collection. The Antique Collector introduces him to Lancelot and Ronald asks if he can purchase it, but Lancelot declines his offer. Lancelot then offers Ronald the chance to see his collection if he ever visits Baltimore. Later, Ronald makes a trip to Lancelot's home and Lancelot shows him different Poe related items. They have a toast to the "immortal" Edgar Allen Poe. They continue to drink and Lancelot starts to get drunk. Ronald pulls out his pipe and Lancelot gives Ronald a lighter to use. Lancelot takes Ronald to see his special collection, but first makes him promise not to tell anyone else what he has seen. They go down into a basement and Lancelot shows Ronald unpublished works by Poe. Ronald sees a bejeweled box, but Lancelot drags him away from it. Ronald notices that some of the manuscripts are written on modern paper and thinks Lancelot wrote them. Lancelot tells Ronald that his grandfather made money selling cadavers and got a hold of Poe and kept the remaining dust in the bejeweled box. Ronald opens the box and it is empty and Lancelot tells him that his grandfather was also a student of the occult and he brought Poe back to life. Ronald sees another door and when he tries to open it, Lancelot tries to stop him and Ronald kills him. Ronald opens the door and finds Poe inside and offers to release Poe. Poe tells him that he made a deal with the Devil and only a living soul which replaces his can release him. Poe says that he can also be released by fire, and Ronald offers to release him if he tells him more about the unknown. Ronald frees Poe and as he is trying to leave the basement, it is covered in flames and Poe tells him that he is trapped.

Atropos cuts Ronald's thread. Dr. Diabolo tries to make Gordon go next and Gordon grabs Atropos' scissors and starts stabbing Dr. Diabalo until he falls dead. The others run away and Gordon starts whistling and Dr. Diabolos stands up. Ronald shows himself and Dr. Diabolo figures out that Ronald wants to make a deal with him and Ronald pulls out the same lighter that Lancelot gave him.
