Halliwell (also known as Old man Halliwell, Red Glow, The Majian, and Old General Halliwell)[2][3][4][5] is a leader of ghosts that resided in the Halliwell Mansion. Kenny Fenderman was dared into going in there to bust him.
History[]
It seems Halliwell did not move on and still commands an army in the after life. The ghost is something of a local legend and his home is regarded as a haunted house. A young boy named Willie Bradford knew the legend and dared one of his peers, Kenny Fenderman, to prove his affiliation with the Ghostbusters by catching Halliwell. Armed with only the experimental Ecto-Aroma Eliminator and no knowledge of what it did nor how to use it, Fenderman faced certain doom. Luckily, the Ghostbusters tracked down the Eliminator's isotope using a Geiger Counter and discovered Fenderman and his dilemma.
After consulting Tobin's Spirit Guide, Egon Spengler likened him to a single intelligence directing spirit activity in the house.[6] With that much P.K.E., he could, in theory, blow up the Containment Unit.[7] But if a powerful enough kinetic force of near atomic levels could blow it apart during trapping, the conditions of the Containment Unit would prevent it from reforming.[8][9][10] The unstable prototype Ecto-Aroma Eliminator was used to discorporate Halliwell and he was successfully trapped.
Powers[]
Halliwell can control lesser ghosts and generate a supernatural wind. He also has so much P.K.E. at his disposal, he could blow up the Containment Unit if placed inside in his regular state.
Trivia[]
- The only words spoken by Halliwell was, "Ghostbusters!"
- On page 14 of Ghostbusters Issue #9, Halliwell makes a non-canon cameo to the left of the Fort Wayne Army ghosts.
