Beth Chavez was a maid at Collinwood, and later ghost who haunted the house until 1969.

Beth Chavez arrived at Collinwood around 1895 as the personal maid of Jenny Collins, the first wife of Quentin. It is unclear when she began her affair with Quentin, but after Jenny went insane and Quentin went to Alexandria, Egypt with Laura Collins she stayed on to serve Jenny, who was locked up in the Tower room. She also acted as the sole contact with Mrs. Fillmore, who adopted Quentin and Jenny's twin children. This arrangement was known only to Edward and Judith Collins until Rachel Drummond noticed the light in the tower room one night and began to start asking questions.

It was Beth who originally shot and killed Quentin on Sept. 10, 1897. When Quentin's ghost was freed from his room, Beth also began to haunt Collinwood, and it was she who provided Barnabas and Julia Hoffman with the information they needed to stop Quentin's death, which saved the life of David Collins in 1969.
