Ambrose is a warlock specialized in necromancy. Because of a binding spell, which was put on him 75 years ago, he can't leave the Spellman Mortuary. Eventually he's released by Faustus Blackwood.
Ambrose is a cousin of Sabrina Spellman. They are close to each other, which is noticable since he often acts as her conscience. He also helps her a lot, by, for example keeping the secret of the time paradox having been caused by Sabrina Morningstar.
Early Life
As a young warlock, Ambrose his father was killed by witch hunters. He was the only survivor and was raised by his aunt, Hilda Spellman. When he turned 17 years old, he published his very first poetry collection. Writing poetry wasn't the only thing Ambrose did. He also painted and taught stage magic to the one and only Harry Houdini.
"Blackwood used us, Prudence. Our desire for a father blinded us to the family we already had."

In the 19th century things changed for Ambrose. He met Aleister Crowley. He stood behind his thoughts and so he became a follower of everything the man stood for. Ambrose and some others (which are unknown to us) attempted to blow up the Vatican because of the Crowley's ideas. Ambrose was the only one who got arrested and even when he got offered immunity if he told them the other names, Ambrose did not. This is why he got stuck in the Spellman Mortuary with a binding spell. Since then he started to work as a mortician and lived in that house for the next 75 years.

Personality
A sagacious and witty man, that is who Ambrose Spellman is. He is also always ready to help out his cousin Sabrina during her teenage adventures as a witch. Even when Ambrose enjoys hexing people, he is still a warlock with a lot of knowledge. His knowledge expands from occult disciplines to practices, like exorcisms or necromancy. From the moment he got trapped inside the Spellman Mortuary, Ambrose developed a depression. He copes with it by using sarcasm and jokes.
