Scooby-Doo

Ghost is not a recurring character within the Scooby-Doo franchise, but rather a general term used to describe a variety of spectral antagonists. Throughout the various iterations of the Scooby-Doo cartoons, films, and other media, the Mystery Incorporated gang frequently encounters individuals disguised as ghosts.

These "ghosts" are almost always revealed to be ordinary humans perpetrating a hoax for personal gain. Their motivations range from scaring people away from valuable property or historical sites to covering up criminal activities. The "ghost" persona is a disguise, often involving elaborate costumes and special effects to create the illusion of a supernatural presence.

While the appearance and backstory of each "ghost" varies significantly depending on the specific episode or film, they share the common trait of being unmasked by Scooby-Doo and the gang, exposing their human identities and fraudulent schemes. Therefore, Ghost isn't a specific entity but a recurring motif representing the fabricated supernatural threats faced by Mystery Incorporated.
