The Skin Stapler Luna: Donut Shop Owner & Voice Actor

The Skin Stapler Luna is a playable character who runs a donut and coffee shop in Carrion City. She is voiced by Luna Arcana (@lunaarcana), who previously did art and voice acting for other Tainted Pact games. Luna's section takes place at her shop, where she serves customers before being killed by the Skin Stapler.

Who is Luna?

Luna is a character in The Skin Stapler who runs a donut and coffee shop. The developer's official announcement describes her as running "an occult-themed donut/coffee shop named 'Arcana's Dark Roast & Dirty Holes.'" The in-game name, as recorded in full-game transcripts, is "Luna's Cream Filled Donut Holes."

Luna is a playable character, part of the game's multiple-perspective structure. She appears in the full game alongside the other civilian viewpoints — Hexy at Quick Fix, Blair at Gutters End, and Fefe at her apartment.

Is Luna playable?

Yes. Luna is a playable character in The Skin Stapler. The developer's cast announcement identifies her as a cast member, and the game's official description promises "Multiple Playable Perspectives" including "ordinary civilians in the final moments of their lives." Luna is one of those civilian perspectives.

The full-game transcript shows the player encountering Luna early in the game and then controlling events at her shop later. Her section is part of the released full game, not the free demo.

Luna's shop

Luna runs a donut and coffee shop. The developer announced the shop name as "Arcana's Dark Roast & Dirty Holes," described as an occult-themed establishment. The in-game transcript uses a different name: "Luna's Cream Filled Donut Holes."

The discrepancy between the announced name and the in-game name may reflect a development change, or both names may exist (official vs colloquial). The in-game name is confirmed by gameplay transcript, while the announced name comes from the developer's official social media.

Luna's shop sells donuts including:

• Cream filled donuts — the shop's signature item
• Special queso donut — a specific menu item mentioned in dialogue
• Coffee — Luna mentions grabbing coffee before returning to her shop

Luna's personality

Luna's dialogue reveals several personality traits:

• She is self-aware about her situation: "I should really question why this is my life. But hey, it pays the bill."
• She has a positive philosophy: "One good donut can fix anything."
• She is observant about the city's problems: "Everybody in this town is tweaking."
• She is friendly with customers and other characters

The full-game transcript shows Luna interacting with multiple characters, including Scaroline. Her section builds the atmosphere of a working shop before the Skin Stapler's violence arrives.

Who voices Luna?

Luna is voiced by Luna Arcana (@lunaarcana). This is confirmed by:

• The developer's official cast announcement: "Happy to announce the next cast member for The Skin Stapler @lunaarcana"
• The official cast poster: "Luna - @LunaArcana"
• Luna Arcana's own post-release thank you: "I hope you're all enjoying @TaintedPact's The Skin Stapler! It was so rad to be a part of such a fun project"

Luna Arcana is described on her ArtStation portfolio as an "Illustrator, witch, artist working on games." The developer noted that she has done art and voice acting for a couple of his previous games, making her a returning collaborator with Tainted Pact.

What happens to Luna?

Luna is killed by the Skin Stapler at her donut shop. Full-game transcripts confirm this:

• The player reacts: "RIP Luna. I already know she gonna die, too."
• After her death: "We lost another one. RIP, Luna."
• The crime scene is then investigated: "Let's go investigate Luna's crime scene."

The transcript also reveals that Chief O'Brien's corpse is found at Luna's shop alongside Luna herself: "Apparently, the corpse of police chief O'Brien was found at the scene alongside Luna herself." Both characters are killed at the same location.

Luna's place in the investigation

After Luna's death, the detectives investigate her crime scene. The walkthrough places Luna's shop in the full-game chapter order, and the radio DJ (DJ Woolz) reports on the killing: "Tonight's fresh horror comes from Luna's Cream Filled Donut Holes."

The investigation at Luna's shop is part of the larger pattern the detectives are tracking. Her death, along with Chief O'Brien's, raises the stakes of the case and pushes the investigation forward.

The shop name discrepancy

The developer announced the shop as "Arcana's Dark Roast & Dirty Holes" (occult-themed), but the in-game transcript uses "Luna's Cream Filled Donut Holes." This may be:

• A development name change before release
• Two different names for the same location
• An official name vs a colloquial name

The in-game name is confirmed by gameplay, while the announced name comes from the developer's pre-release social media. Both are documented here without forcing a resolution.

Luna vs Luna Layna Lazar

It is important to distinguish between two different people:

• Luna Arcana (@lunaarcana) — voices Luna (the donut shop character)
• Luna Layna Lazar (@LaynaLazar) — voices Nurse Layna (a different character)

These are two separate performers and two separate characters. The name similarity is coincidental. The voice actors guide maps each role to its correct performer.

What is confirmed and what is not

Confirmed: Luna runs a donut/coffee shop, is voiced by Luna Arcana, is killed at her shop alongside Chief O'Brien, and interacts with other characters including Scaroline.

Not confirmed: Luna's full backstory beyond running the shop, her exact role before her death section (she is referenced early in the game), the reason for the shop name discrepancy, and Luna Arcana's specific art contributions to the game beyond voice acting.
