Alfred Dussel was a dentist and an acquaintance of the Franks who hid with them in the annexe. He shared a room with Anne, who suffered the brunt of his odd personal hygiene habits, pedantic lectures, and controlling tendencies. Mr. Dussel’ wife was a ****, so she did not go into hiding, and he was separated from her. He never cared for the feelings of others and turned out to be an irresponsible person. He was the eighth entrant of the house. The other residents of the annexe found him to be a selfish man who never bothered about others. He never cared for the feelings of others. of them ever found him to be helpful in any matter. He was not a contributing figure. He always remained confined to himself. The people of the annexe did not like him. At many occasions, he committed a mistake, and later apologised for it but only to repeat it again. He was an ungrateful person who showed irresponsible behaviour throughout his stay at the annexe.

Anne disliked him for his self-centered nature. He used to scold her and made it a point to tell her about her shortcomings. Anne had shared her room with him but when she asked him to let her use the table for two more hours he bluntly refused, giving Anne a shock. He was not in the good books of others as later the residents found that he had started hiding eatables in the cupboard. He was an irresponsible man as he disobeyed the restrictions posed on the residents due to the war. He **** in a concentration camp in December 1944.
