Characters in Poirot Novels
Poirot Novels
(including Black Coffee)
Agatha Christie wrote a whopping 33 Poirot novels and a further 51 short stories featuring the famous Belgium detective. Not only is the breath of stories and plots Christie created impressive but the sheer number of characters is unbelievable too. Here at EverythingAgatha, we have captured all the characters created from each novel and short story to create a full character index for you – whether you’re writing an essay, creating your own site, writing a book even or just want to remember a character you’ve forgotten – they’re all here. All the characters from the Poirot novels are listed out below. We’ve not only included those that feature directly in the store is but even the characters who are ‘deceased’ such as the parents of Pilar Estravdos in Black Coffee or referred to only such as Lily Gamboll from Mrs McGinty’s Dead. We’ve tried to make this the most comprehensive list of characters so you can find everyone Agatha Christie created from her impressive and never ending imagination.
Complete list of all characters featuring in the Poirot Novels in alphabetical order.
Note: where a character has no given first name (that I’m aware of, they will be under their title whether Mr, Mrs or Miss. When characters have a specific title such as Lady, Captain etc.., they will be under their title first. Please use the search button if this is not convenient for you though!
