Uncle Josh

Uncle Josh is the only named character that is mentioned but never makes an appearance. He is the Great Uncle of Terry and Alex who happens to live near Orpheo's Palace (right across the street).

Very little is known about Uncle Josh, though it's possible he may have been around since Orpheo's Palace was still open (or was told about it while growing up). He seems to have much knowledge on Orpheo which may also suggest that he may have even been going to the Theatre to watch all the acts and magic tricks until it was closed.

It is known that Terry loved to visit Uncle Josh as he lived close to the Theatre which suggests that both Terry and Alex were staying at their Great Uncle's home.

Trivia:

 * Even though he is Alex and Terry's Great Uncle, they always refer to him as Uncle Josh.
 * Though it is never confirmed, it's suggested that Uncle Josh has a job of some sort as Alex states he will "be back from his meeting in an hour" when Alex and Terry go other to Orpheo's Palace.
