'''The Box Ghost''' is a generally harmless [[ghost]] and running gag from the [[animated series]] [[Danny Phantom]]. |
|||
He is voiced by [[Rob Paulsen]]. |
|||
==Appearances/History== |
|||
He first appeared in [[One of a Kind (Danny Phantom)|One of a Kind]]. Box Ghost makes the attack on a warehouse, because he was used by [[Skulker (Danny Phantom)|Skulker]] as bait. At the end of his debut episode, he enters a classroom, and [[Danny Phantom]] attacks him. |
|||
In [[Splitting Images]], Box Ghost makes the attack on Danny at the opening, and actually manages to best him. The Box Ghost returns in the end with his new name, "The Mechanical Frog Ghost", but he immediately changes his mind when the mechanical frog malfunctions. |
|||
In [[Prisoners of Love (Danny Phantom)|Prisoners of Love]], he meets Danny at the room in the Ghost Zone where human-world objects were kept. Then, [[Walker (Danny Phantom)|Walker]]'s lackeys arrested them both. At prison, Box Ghost and all the ghosts teamed up to escape. |
|||
He made a brief appearance in [[Lucky in Love]] while Danny was on a picnic with Paulina only to be beaten up by Danny to impress Paulina. |
|||
He showed briefly in [[Life Lessons]] where he was used as bait by Skulker again. In the end, he was chased by [[Valerie Gray|Valerie]]. |
|||
Later, in ''[[Reign Storm]]'', he displayed his new power to control bubble wrap. He, along with the other ghosts teamed up to stop [[Pariah Dark]]. |
|||
He briefly appears in [[Identity Crisis (Danny Phantom)|Identity Crisis]]. |
|||
There is a reference to the Box Ghost in [[Kindred Spirits]] when Tucker asked "What kind of ghost haunts a miniature golf course?" Sam replied, "Well there ''is'' a Box Ghost. Apparently all the good haunts have been taken." |
|||
The Box Ghost's final appearance is in the series finale, [[Phantom Planet (Danny Phantom)|Phantom Planet]]. He is seen only briefly on a few occasions, once being defeated by Vlad's team of Ghost Hunters, the Masters Blasters, and again as one of the many ghosts to help Danny and Skulker turn the entire planet intangible so that an asteroid can pass through it. |
|||
In the alternate future of ''[[The Ultimate Enemy]]'', he and the [[Lunch Lady Ghost]] are married and have a child (humorously called [[List of Danny Phantom villains and ghosts#Box Lunch|Box Lunch]]). His future self is muscular, and had an [[eyepatch]] and a [[hook]], due to injuries sustained by [[Dark Danny]]. He is considerably more dangerous and violent in this future. He is also more powerful than his present self, able to fire cube-shaped [[ectoplasm]]ic [[construct]]s of destructive [[energy]]. It should also be noted that his version is no longer the comedic idiot he once was but a sadistic old man who wants nothing other than revenge. His jokes and speech are also more sadistic and no longer funny. |
|||

|||
Box Ghost is one of the ghosts who helped Danny save Christmas in [[The Fright Before Christmas]]. He later makes another appearance in [[Secret Weapons]], where he traps Tucker and Sam and fights Danny. He ends up escaping after Danny was sucked into the Fenton Thermos (yet again) by his sister [[Jazz Fenton|Jazz]]. |
|||
His biggest appearance, so far, took place in [[Boxed Up Fury]], when he steals [[Pandora's box]], forcing Danny to seek [[Pandora|her]] help in order to stop him. It is interesting to note that although he has made numerous appearances, this was the first, and so far only, episode in which Box Ghost was the main villain. |
|||
==Personality/Weakness== |
|||
The Box Ghost is a rather comical ghost who, despite numerous shouts of "''Beware!''" is not as threatening as he intends to be. The Box Ghost and Danny are on somewhat (relatively) friendly terms, as neither sees the other as any sort of threat. He loves to say his catchphrase: "''I am the Box Ghost! Beware!''" and is usually too busy shouting his title to actually cause damage. |
|||
The Box Ghost's greatest weakness is the fact that he is not very bright and constantly misjudges his rather meager abilities, seeing them as bigger than they are. Incompetent in battle and serving more as a joke to Danny's team then anything else, he has his rare moments when he sees his own victories. He becomes indignant when referred to as anything apart from "''The Box Ghost''", such as when Jazz called him the "''Crate Creep.''" He's serves more of a running gag than a bonafide threat. Box Ghost is sure to appear again, if only for comedic purposes. In his one star appearence in ''Boxed Up Fury'' the Box Ghost is described as "''a ghost with an [[Inferiority complex|inferiority complex]], who just wants attention''"--which sums him up perfectly. |
|||
==Power== |
|||
The Box Ghost has the standard ghost powers of intangibility, invisibility, and flight. He has the ability to control boxes, and to put out the items inside. In ''"Reign Storm"'', he gains the ability to control bubble wrap as well. In ''"The Ultimate Enemy"'', the future version of Box Ghost has gained the power to create energy cubes out of thin air. In [[Boxed Up Fury]] after he stole Pandora's Box he temponarily gained unlimited evil power which made him unstoppable. |
|||
==Trivia== |
|||
* In "Identity Crisis", when Danny, Tucker, and Sam are using Danny's Computer Ghost Files, they check to see which ones are in the [[Ghost Zone]], saying "''Ghost Zone''" after each one. When they get to the Box Ghost, they all say "''Who Cares?''". Apparently, he's not worth Danny's energy to chase and capture, since he's not really a threat to anyone. |
|||
* In one episode where Danny (as the Phantom) surrenders himself to his father he decides to use the Box Ghost's catchphrase: "''Beware!''" |
