Miss Forcible is one of Coraline’s neighbors. She is Miss Spink’s best friend and roommate (or perhaps partner, though the novel never delves into the specifics of their relationship.) The two women both claim that they used to be famous, well-loved actresses who performed Shakespeare and other classic plays—now, however, they live far from the city with several aging Highland terriers. Miss Forcible is, like Miss Spink, highly superstitious—but also generous and caring, even if she and Miss Spink both call Coraline “Caroline” on occasion.

The mist hung like blindness around the house. She walked slowly to the stairs up to her family’s flat, and then stopped and looked around.
In the mist, it was a ghost-world. In danger? thought Coraline to herself. It sounded exciting. It didn’t sound like a bad thing. Not really.
Coraline went back upstairs, her fist closed tightly around her new stone.
