Mrs. Mayberry is the overarching protagonist of the episode Murder Family in Season 1 and a minor character in the episode Apology Tour in Season 2 of Helluva Boss.
She is a former school teacher who committed suicide after she caught her husband cheating on her with another woman named Martha, who survived the deadly homicide attack. After becoming a demon, she hires Blitzo and his company to assassinate Martha as revenge.
She was voiced by Mara Wilson, who also portrayed herself in Nostalgia Critic and voiced Liv Amara in Big Hero 6: The Series.
Biography[]
Before her death, she was a school teacher and was seemingly nice her whole life. While singing with her students, one of them reminded her it's her husband's birthday, which Mayberry starts to panic as she forgot and didn't get him anything special.
However, once she uses her computer to video call her husband to wish him a happy birthday, she is horrified and enraged to see him with another woman in bed. She and her students are shocked in horror, she snaps and storms out of the classroom. One of the students tries to calm her down but gets thrown into the ceiling by the teacher. Mayberry drives to her house and kills her husband and the woman, while her students were still watching in horror and takes her own life realizing what she has done.
However, after being sent to Hell and becoming a demon, she learns that the woman survived the attack and became a “hero” because of the incident, she received two million dollars and appeared on talk shows. Mayberry goes to I.M.P Headquarters and hires them for their services. Blitzo mocks her story and tells her that he and his company only kill targets from the living world. Mayberry reveals to him that the woman survived and became a hero to the public. She angrily voiced her desire for revenge, scaring Blitzo. In the lobby, Blitzo introduces Mayberry to the rest of the staff. While walking Mayberry to a taxi, Blitzo tells her that the target will be killed within 24 hours or else the contract is free.
Back in Hell, after Moxxie succeeds in killing Martha, with her family being killed by the cops, the I.M.P staff and Mayberry congratulate him (despite feeling regretting for what he did), they then celebrate their victory with a cake that Mrs. Mayberry has baked for them.
In "Apology Tour", it's revealed that she and Martha have developed a sexual relationship and now live in the same house, hinting that they have stopped hating each other or at the very least became attracted to one another.
Personality[]
While alive, she was a sweet, kind, caring (almost to the point of cloying) woman, up to the point where she snapped as a result of learning of her husband's adultury. As a demon, she has become vengeful and bitter. Notably, she never denies being a murderer or states that her punishment is unjust or undeserved, admitting her goal is to see Martha in Hell with her. Curiously, she seems to have forgiven Martha later.
Before her death, Mrs. Mayberry was a cheerful and kind person who had a passion for teaching children.
However, when she saw that her husband cheated on her, she snapped and was filled with murderous intent, although she was immediately horrified of killing him in front of her students after coming to her senses.
After her death, Mayberry became embittered to the thought of ending up in Hell for one act of blind rage after living a lifetime of otherwise good behavior. She was also out for revenge on the woman who was responsible for her death, which is why she went to Blitzo for this task. However, she seems to have changed her mind towards Martha sometime later, given how both women are now living together.
It seems she still has a sense of humor, joking about how the situation was messed up, but she paid for it.

Trivia[]

- She apparently did not have children, as she told her husband they could have had a family.
- She is the first denizen of Hell in the series who has been shown in both their living human form and the sinner demon form they took on after their death.
- She is first sinner client of I.M.P shown in Helluva Boss.
- In the 2025 Helluva Boss pride month merchandise, Mrs. Mayberry is confirmed to be Lesbian.
- Critics complained that the reveal of Mayberry being a lesbian was forced diversity and contradictory of the fact that she tearfully murdered her husband out of heartbreak, however it could be interpreted from her line "Play by all the rules and still get sent down here with all the Hitlers and Epsteins of the world" that she only married her husband so she could repress her lesbianism and lead a virtuous, bible-abiding life and land herself a spot in heaven. This would explain why she later pursued a lesbian relationship once her chances of going to heaven were completely snuffed out.
- Her voice actress, Mara Wilson, is Bisexual.
