Ghostfreak is an Ectonurite (ecto playing on ectoplasm) from the planet Anur Phaetos (phaetos playing on phantom). Anur Phaetos is a mysterious world, if a world at all. None have seen it and lived to tell about the sight. Some urban legends claim it to be the source of galactic chaos, while others identify it as a dimensional realm instead of a planet. The only thing that can be said for certain is that it's dark, as befits its ghostly inhabitants. Ectonurites seem to be part of a hive mind, which is as dark as the world they live on. This mind is embedded in the very fabric of their being, and even a single strand of DNA can replicate it in its entirety.
Ectonurites are perhaps the most frightening creatures in the galaxy. With an exposed and upside-down skull for a head, only one eye, dark blue skin, exposed bones on certain parts of their bodies, and blue claws, Ectonurites seem as if they belong in a horror film. Ectonurites are composed of a protoplasm that enables them to phase through solid objects and become invisible, much like modern ghosts. Their ability to pass through solid objects also enables them to possess people for limited periods of time. Ectonurites also have powerful psychic abilities such as telepathy and telekinesis, but the extent of these abilities remains unclear. Being creatures of the night, Ectonurites are extremely photosensitive. Intense light, especially sunlight, renders Ectonurites powerless and will cause them to combust with prolonged exposure.
Ghostfreak, the version stored in the Omnitrix, was different from his kin. He had a second layer of protective skin, which allowed him to operate in sunlight. His one eye could also be moved along a track on the skin, which allowed Ghostfreak to have an eye on the back of his head. The second skin also toned down his normally frightening look, giving him the appearance of a more classic ghost. Since this version was created from a strand of Ectonurite DNA, Ghostfreak's mind remained intact and suppressed within the Omnitrix. He broke free in "Ghostfreaked Out", after which he tried to possess Ben to gain the Omnitrix's powers. Ben managed to destroy him before he could succeed. Ghostfreak has since been replaced by Cannonbolt in the show's opening sequence, and Ben hasn't used the form since its destruction.
First Appearance
Ben first transformed into Ghostfreak in "Permanent Retirement" when he wanted to get away from his Aunt Vera for a while.
Advantages
Can become intangible (move through solid matter) at will.
Can become invisible (unable to be seen by the naked eye) at will.
Can fly, though not as quickly or as expertly as Stinkfly can.
Can move his eye along a track traced on his skin, giving him a wide degree of vision similar to Stinkfly.
Can peel his own skin off to reveal a mass of black and gray tentacles beneath, as well as an inverted skull for a head.
Has minor telekinetic and telepathic abilities.
Can possess others for a short period of time.
Disadvantages
Certain chemicals will solidify Ghostfreak's protoplasm, rendering his invisibility and intangibility useless. Though direct light would also be a problem under normal conditions, the second layer of skin removes this weakness.
Without his protective layer of skin, Ghostfreak is extremely photosensitive. Direct light, as well as other devices that can project ultraviolet radiation, will burn him when his protective layer of skin is removed. Enough exposure causes him to combust and die.
Ghostfreak is not as strong as some of the other alien forms.
Ghostfreak doesn't seem to be capable of possessing other aliens, though this may just be the case of the aliens on the Omnitrix, since the Omnitrix repels negative forces aimed at it.
