Everyone in the Astral Realms knows Ghastly - this Spectre was haunting when you were not even a disturbance in the raw plasm.
-Epitaph
Ghastly is a Spectre who joins the Ghost Master's team at the start of act 1.
Appearance
Ghastly is a large, beige man. He is bald and wears goggles with black lenses covering his blue eyes. Ghastly wears a long, black, presumably leather, dress adorned with a metal shoulder guard on his left shoulder, silver shoes and a large silver belt with a pair of handcuffs attached to it. The dress covers most of his body up to the feet and is torn in the middle, exposing his chest. The torn dress is kept together with three large staples. Ghastly's chest is held together by series of stitches. He is missing both of his hands, which are replaced with a sickle and a hook with a spiky base. Ghastly has a large nose, constantly opened mouth and many scars on his face. His insides are visible during his manifest animations, exposing his organs and flesh.

Trivia
- Ghastly is based on Butterball, a character from 1987 movie "Hellraiser", created by Clive Barker.
- Ghastly's early concept art resembles Pinhead, another character from above-mentioned work
- Ghastly's goggles glow green in many of his promotional artworks as well as the intro cutscene. However, in game, the goggles never glow.
- In addition, his clothes overall are very different compared to the in-game version.
- Ghastly has two additional models in his file called Ghastly_leftrip and Ghastly_rightrip. The purpose of these models is unknown.
- Ghastly_rightrip is the right portion of his torso as well as all of his lower body while Ghastly_leftrip only shows the left side of his torso and nothing else.
- Ghastly's model has a few errors:
- His chin stretches too far down into a flat shape.
- His dress is too long and goes into his feet.
- Ghastly was originally supposed to be the game's mascot, however in the end, Boo ended up being it.
