Ethel Saperstein is a resident of Westboro Apartments. She lives in apartment number 237 with her husband but grew up in Mindelplatz near Prague.

On Halloween, she tells Francine a story about a golem she saw as a child and suggests that the golem killed her. She drops a photograph in Francine's candy bag and when Francine comes back to return it, Mr. Saperstein pretends to be Ethel's brother and claims that Ethel disappeared as a child.

Later that evening, Muffy meets the Sapersteins at a party. Muffy and Ethel are both dressed as Alice in Wonderland. The husband is dressed as a golem and Ethel tells Muffy that the golem story is a prank the couple play on trick-or-treaters.

Muffy later shows a photograph of the Sapersteins to Francine who realizes that she has been fooled.

In "Bleep", Thora Read buys a gift for a friend named Ethel. It could be Ethel Saperstein, but this is never confirmed.
