Notes:[]

Skulls are scary. especially when they fly around with glowing eyes and try to kill you. These Class I Swarmers are drawn strangely but exclusively to skulls, real or imitation.

  • Category: Class 4 Psychokinetic Manipulation Event
  • Abilities: Flying Ram

Tobin's Summary[]

More powerful spectral manifestations have the ability to not only levitate objects, but also to imbue them with a temporary sense of life. This is usually done to effigies and statues with discernible body parts, but more exotic variants have occurred based on the proclivities of the animator. These creations are usually easy to disrupt and are only a serious threat in large quantities.

Egon's Notes:[]

Skulls seem like a bit of a cliche to use as a weapon, but they seem to function fairly efficiently as an animated projectile. The hard frontal bone can withstand pretty serious impact before cracking.

Ray's Tips:[]

Don't lose your nerve, these aren't nearly as bad as they look. Use the Shock Blast to blast them out of the sky with ease.

Supplemental Data[]

The art page can be found in the Museum, during the "Stumbling Along the Trail..." section. It is hidden in a very small animal statue at the top of the stairs, just after the skull room en route to the Egyptian section.

Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime[]

The Flying Skulls come in all three colored auras. They attack in swarms.
