Haunter has some great lines during the whole show. He dislikes "Miserable Mysteria" and always drives Prime Evil mad due to calling him "old boy". ;D Also worth mentioning is that he was the only ghost in Haunt Quarters who didn't bow to Big Evil's new regime. I like Haunter a lot and enjoy seeing him in any episode of Filmation's Ghostbusters. What do you think of him? Feel free to discuss anything you want regarding this character.

Hmm, I think Haunter's really the first ghost of his kind in the Ghostbusters world. We've seen *living* hunters before, but never a ghostly hunter.
Other than that, he's basically a takeoff of British character actor Terry Thomas--you might recognize him from It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. I'm amazed that he was actually somewhat smart when trying to defeat the Ghostbusters, but his arrogance often got the better of him and made him do stupid things (the Wax Museum episode is a prime example of this).
I have a theory about this guy too. Let's say that he was a rather ruthless soldier of the British Empire who suffered a violent death at the hands of some tribal warriors who sought revenge for the crimes he committed in life.

Surely one of the characters that at first sight is insignificant and not very nice. By the time you start to appreciate your participation and especially his english humor... . Winning in my opinion are coupled with Scared Stiff, Mysteria and Fangster.

Let's say that he was a rather ruthless soldier of the British Empire... or better, the equivalent of the British Empire in the Ghost World, because he never was a "physical" entity in "our" world to begin with, that would break all the rules established by the two FGB series, ain't it? Has Haunter purple skin as well?

@ Nix: Wow, your theory sounds exciting. And yes, the way he acted at the Wax Museum is a very good example for his pride. He also wanted to do better than Mysteria, unfortunately it backfired.
@ Scuotiossa: Sometimes it takes a while to get used to a character and his humor.
@ Zack: He reminds me of him too. I should finally watch Jumanji.

I liked Haunter a lot. He was a great character.
Nix, your right about him being a take on Terry-Thomas.

could u see rowan atkinson aka mr bean as haunter Hank Azaria might be a better choice, if his performance in Night at the Museum 2 is anything to go by.

Yeah, got that Nix.
I'm wondering why the purple-coloured skin like Futura... was Haunter coming from the Ghost World's future, along with Fangster?
