William Henry Blore



The 8th Victim ( In reality the 7th Victim b/c Wargrave faked his death):
William Blore in the 1945 version

  Description:
  At first he uses a false alias "Davis" and declares that he has arrived from Africa. He appears as a loudspoken man and later on in the story keeps accusing everyone of being the   murderer (everytime he accuses one person they are killed next--> proving him to be an incapable detective).Throughout the story he is mostly suspicious towards Lombard because of his refusal at first to turn in his gun.

Accused of:
The gramophone recording accuses "Davis" under his real name(William Blore) he then proceeds to tell everyone that he was hired as a caretaker for Mrs.Owen's jewels/ to snoop on the guests. He denies the fact that he accepted bribes from a criminal gang to falsify his statement against a man named James Landor but later privately admits it to Lombard. 

Death by:
As the accusations play, Blore denies it at first and later admits it to Lombard. Later on, they suspect that Armstrong is the killer because of his extensive knowledge and tools. During his talk with Lombard and Claythorne, he foolishly decides to leave the save place to get some lunch. After what seems like an earthquake, Lombard and Claythorne run in to see Blore's skull crushed by a bear clock that has fallen from Claythorne's bedroom window.

"Three little Soldier Boys walking in the zoo;
A big bear hugged one and then there were two."  

Wargrave's Confession:
Wargrave's letter reveals that while Blore stupidly decided to leave the "save haven" he got up from the dead people's resting place and pushed the bear clock into position to wait for Blore's arrival and then proceeded to crush his skull with the bear shaped clock.
