Line 33:
* [[Died Happily Ever After]]: Kat's mom.
* [[Disney Villain Death]]: Carrigan. Not that it stops her...
* [[Establishing Character Moment|Establishing Character Moment:]] A lot of the characters have their share of moments:
** Casper for example gets his first speaking appearance trying to settle an argument over two kids taking a picture of the house on a dare. Only for him to intervene, help and accidentally scare them away. Showing that he's a nice ghost, whom wants a friend, but has no such luck.
** Carrigan and Dibbs establish themselves off the bat. Carrigan shows her impatience and domineering personality, by putting out a cigarette on an expensive table at the lawyer's office and pushing Dibbs into speeding the reading along so she'd know what she got. When she was told she inherited Whipstaff Manor and not any financial reward. While Dibbs can only begrudgingly follow her commands, despite his clear hatred of her.
** Dr. Harvey establishes himself on the news as well as in his first official scene. The news segments show that he does try to handle hauntings professionally and that the later problems with Casper and The Ghostly Trio, while shocking and new to him also fall under the problems he's trying to solve for all hauntings while at the same time trying to contact his deceased wife.
** Kat Harvey is shown to be aloof regarding her father, due to having to constantly move and not be able to keep the friends she makes. When she meets Casper, she's scared of him at first, but when she sees he's a lonely ghost who wants a friend, she tries her best to help him. At one point even stand up to the Ghostly Trio for picking on him one too many times.
** The Ghostly Trio's first moment is after Casper accidentally scares Carrigan and Dibbs. They appear collectively in a demonic scare image. Showing that they take their haunting seriously as well as get creative and have fun with it. They show that while they pick on Casper a lot, they do care about him and any friends they make. Which is why they get along with Dr. Harvey so well.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Right after the Ghostly Trio decide they want to kill James so his ghost can join their gang, James (drunkenly) tells them he won't help Carrigan evict them from the manor, and declares them to be his best friends. They declare they just can't croak him right in front of him.
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Carrigan, in ghost form.
