Grim

• Abusive Parents: Depending of the episode.
• Affably Evil: Is remarkably polite when he isn't putting his scythe to work or getting bossed around by the title characters.
• Anti-Hero: Type IV/Type V
• Butt Monkey
• Dark Is Not Evil: At the very least nowhere as evil as Mandy.
• Deadpan Snarker
• Dem Bones
• The Grim Reaper: Obviously
• Heroic Comedic Sociopath
• The Kirk
• Sinister Scythe: Which can do just about anything...except whack the weeds in Skarr's garden.
• Too Dumb To Gamble: Maybe if he never wagered his own freedom, he would still be reaping souls.
  • Of course, he hadn't counted on Billy or Mandy cheating to win by getting Billy's ancient hamster to attack Grim during the game.

Billy

• Anti-Hero: Type I
• Chaotic Stupid/Stupid Good
• Cloudcuckoolander
• The Ditz: On a good day. On his bad days, he's simply Too Dumb to Live.
  • His IQ is -5, being outperformed in the test by a shovel and two candy bracelets (they got a positive 17).
• Dumb Is Good
• Expy: Of Stimpy.
• Gasshole
• He-Man Woman Hater: He insists that Mandy and other girls not be allowed on his baseball team...despite them soundly being better at it than he is.

Mandy

• Guile Anti-Hero: Type V
• Hates Being Touched
• Heroic Comedic Sociopath
• Iron Lady/Lady of War: Thoroughly subverting Real Women Never Wear Dresses, Mandy, a staunch feminist, wears pink while discussing Faustian bargains over tea. Her ultimate goal in life is "[....]to do something important!" She eventually is elected president of the United States, and in the distant future, will rule the world.
• Jerkass: Beyond a shadow of a doubt. Her beast transformation in "Sickly Sweet" even makes her sound like a literal ass (the animal).
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: She will occasionally meditate on the possibility that she actually cares about Grim and Billy...but ultimately dismiss the errant thought.
• Karma Houdini: Rule of Funny usually dictates that she gets off scot-free. But there are a few occasions where she's outwitted.
• Madden Into Misanthropy: It's implied that three things helped complete Mandy's metamorphosis into the cynical tyrant we all know and love: The realization that her beloved unicorn toys were being churned out daily by a factory, Mindy's inane, meaningless prattle, and having to deal with Billy every single day of her life.

Jack O'Lantern

• Anti-Villain: The closest to one this show has.
• Disproportionate Retribution: The members of his own town saw to it he was executed just because he didn't know when to stop pranking them. Pretty dark, given the silliness of the show in general.
• Evil Laugh
• Large Ham: He's voiced by Wayne Knight. Of course he's this.
• Off with His Head
• One-Scene Wonder
• The Prankster: Of the evil variety.
• Who Wants to Live Forever?: "Three hundred and sixty-four days a year, I can't even go the the Ding-Dong Grocery Store to buy pudding. And do you know why?"

Dracula

• Expy: Of Blacula, the joke being he bears his name despite not looking at all what most media make of him. For extra Hilarious in Hindsight, in the Blacula movie Dracula is the one turns Blacula.
