Belleranthon is a large and powerful ghost that resembled a giant purple cloud mass with multiple yellow eyes and red irises.

History[]

It is explained that when Mrs. Faversham was a little girl, her father wanted to make her life better, even though she was pretty much happy with the way her life was.[2][3] In order to do this, Mr. Faversham summoned Belleranthon only to find out that he was too powerful. The best he could do to fix his mistake was to imprison the creature within the attic. It was consumed with hatred for Faversham and obsessed over exacting revenge. Unaware of the time that passed, it enlarged its domain and assumed absolute control of the attic.[4]

70 years later, Mrs. Faversham could no longer stand Belleranthon's tormenting noises and called the Ghostbusters to get rid of Belleranthon. On the first encounter, the Ghostbusters temporarily broke its concentration, by shooting at two objects at once, and retreated from the attic. After hearing Mrs. Faversham's story, they concluded they had to lure Belleranthon into the open and reveal its true form in order to trap it. Belleranthon was trapped after Slimer impersonated Faversham's father to bait the creature, as he wanted to have revenge against Mr. Faversham. Egon Spengler lured it to the trap door and trapped it.

Powers[]

Belleranthon can control objects and make them function as bodies for him. While he was in control of everything including there being a door, it is suggested that he could not leave the attic.

Even when in a host body, Belleranthon could project balls of psychokinetic energy.

In his true form, Belleranthon could generate a tornado and lightning within only the attic.

Classification[]

While the Ghostbusters investigated the Faversham Attic, the P.K.E. Meter went "right off the scale" and shorted out.[5]

Description[]

Belleranthon was a giant purple mass, with yellow eyes, and red pupils.

Belleranthon also took on numerous forms made from the items in Mrs. Faversham's attic:

  • Its first host form was a yellow coat rack with a green coat, a teal bolo hat with a dark green stripe, orange hair, and a skinny face with no eyes and a single tooth in its mouth.
  • Its final host form was made of a teapot as its head with a demonic-looking face. Its torso was made of a red dresser, a blue vase, a white coat rack, and a white cloth holding it together. Its right arm is made of an umbrella, with a rake attached to the tip of it acting as a claw. Its left arm is a scythe.
