This page will list all of the ghosts that appear in the game Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, whether playable or not. I am also going to build out pages for each ghost, complete with pictures, stats, and more. There are also more ghosts to come! If you’re looking for our full list of ghosts that appeared in Ghostbusters World, check out Tobin’s Spirit Guide.
Ectoplast
Unlocks when you are level 4
Close your eyes and think of a ghost, won’t you? Disregarding your lack of eye lids, what you’ve pictured within your mind’s eye is most likely an Ectoplast. The perfect beginner ghost to saddle within. Slippery in movement and to the touch, Ectoplasts are effective haunters and exceptional for learning the ropes.
Ghouly
Unlocks at LvL 20
Looking for a Ghost filled with terrifying aggression? Aren’t we all! Take sight, if you dare, of the Ghouly. This class of spectral menace specializes in getting up close and personal. Every encounter leaves its victims filled with extra fear and… insanity. The Ghouly is perfect for terrorizing “Bustwerps” and “shrillvilians” alike.
- Drake
- Infernal
- Wraith
Basher
Unlocks at LvL 30
Most spectral entities prefer to be subtle in their torment of the living. Not so much with the Basher. An otherworldly manifestation built to destroy everything they can! Perhaps sneaking isn’t your forte? This Ghost-type exists purely to put the BUMP in “bump in the night.”
- Lunk
- Squidler
- Gloom
Howler
Unlocks at LvL 40
So many of the living are afraid of what they see, but often times forget that it’s what they hear that will send shivers down their spine. This happens to be the Howler’s area of expertise. They focus on sound to distract and confuse, building chaos as a means to flank and catch their victims off guard. Additionally, my studies have revealed that weaker Minion ghosts respond particularly well to the call of the Howler.
- Shriek
- Chomp
- Bramble
Poltergeist
Unlocks at LvL 50
This Ghost type you MUST already know. A personal favorite of mine… the Poltergeist! As cruel as it is quick, and as savvy as it is SHOCKING. The Poltergeist uses electrical energy infused P.K.E. to wreak havoc on rudimentary ghost hunting gear.
- Zappy
- Gnasher
- Toxie
Glutton
Unlocks at LvL 60
Bereft of life, Ghosts are altogether insatiable beings. When it comes to frantically filling this soulless void, the Glutton takes the cake. And the table… the chairs… everything in close proximity. You see, the more a Glutton consumes, the stronger it grows. The world is this ghoul’s buffet and this desperate, greedy, little Glutton is always ready for seconds.
- Muncher
- Spew
- Heap
Possessor
Unlocks at LvL 70
The demonic Possessor is a beast-like monster with extreme brute force that can sniff out a scared Buster like a slab of rotting beef. Slow on the prowl and perhaps not the most agile of creatures, the Possessor compensates for its bulky lumbering by living up to its moniker; haunting objects with a ferocious, unbridled speed… not to mention possessing the occasional Ghostbuster or two…
- Terror Sentinel
- Scuttle
- Hellion
Watcher
Unlocks at LvL 80
Who watches the Watcher? Well, I do, in fact, and my studies have unequivocally concluded that this ghost type is a particularly grotesque and elusive little creature. It’s safe to assume that before you ever notice a Watcher, it’s certainly already noticed you, courtesy of its giant external eye, attached via a disgusting semi-corporeal tendon. Watchers are known for sending its occult oculus hurtling toward intended scare targets and then either recoiling it back to its socket OR pulling its torso to the eye itself, phasing through anything that stands between them. So yes, quite hideous all ’round.
- Bug-Eye
- Gawk
- Peeky
Overlord
The Overlord. An unrelenting spectral force. Unlike other specters who prefer to hide, the Overlord SEEKS. Born of pain, fear, and darkness, the Overlord is as mighty as they are clever. They’re imbued with never-before-documented passive abilities that make them even more difficult to tether. The Overlord’s aura emits a Looming Dread, compounding a creeping sense of fear within anyone in range. Alas, don’t expect Overlords to “slime” or “shock” those in their way, rather, they devastate them by swinging their deadly claws and hurling any physical objects they can sink their P.K.E. into. Wrangling with an Overlord is quite a horrifying challenge, any way you set it. The kind of ghastly, ghostly encounter that makes me thank my stars I’m a flippin’ book.
- Samhain
- Darklock (requires Overlord Level 7)
- Gravebringer (requires Overlord Level 15)
Non-Playable Ghosts
These are ghosts that appear either in the story mode or elsewhere in the game.
