| 15 | Casper |
There are two types of ghosts that linger on the plain of the living: evil types, who seek revenge in the form of haunting, and spirits who just won't give up, whether it be for love, food or denial of their ghostliness.
Unfortunately, many of the ghosts that fall into this latter category also ended up as "really f*cking annoying ghosts" (scientific term), a classification for paranormal beings that should just throw in the towel and crossover.
Take Casper, the "friendly ghost." Nice kid, sure, but his never-ending quest to be a normal boy and hook-up with a living girl is nonsense. Dude, I'm positive there are chicks in the afterlife, maybe even one who like bald guys!
| 14 | Elliot Hopper in Ghost Dad |
It's great that some movie Dad's eventually come around to loving their families and understanding what's really important in life, but at the end of the day...they're dead. If you're not going to use your newfound powers to scare topless co-eds into sharp edges, I say, just leave well enough alone.
| 13 | Sam Wheat in Ghost |
Patrick Swayze proves that the touch of a ghost is that much more sensual then the hands of a mortal man. We're not dissing him for being lovey dovey, we want him to go back to the afterlife and stop stealing newly available, hot widows. There's enough competition as it is.
| 12 | Moaning Myrtle from Harry Potter |
I knew Hogwarts was a pretty lax school when it came to security and boundries, but who thought it was OK to let a sex-craving, disemboided teenage girl loose in the boys bathroom?
| 11 | Slimer from Ghostbusters |
This one's hard - I want to love Slimer (his cartoon iteration was an fun-loving sidekick), but in Ghostbusters, the green, slobbering ghost is merely a nuisance with a strong appetite. Pile on the fact that he may or may not be the ghost of John Belushi, and you have more than enough reasons to wish Slimer into the great beyond.
