Ghost Lupe

The Ghost Lupe (formerly Ghost Lion, see Trivia) is a restless Lupe Ghost who prowls Mystery Island, seeking revenge against the dangerous natives who kidnapped his bride two centuries ago. He is believed to be named Sylva, the first mate of a ship sent to colonize Mystery Island. As the only officer who survived a the a ship wreck with one third of the passengers, he kept a log of their attempts to survive against the natives, witch doctors, and a fiery spirit in the jungles. His last entry detailed a small group of survivors being captured by natives during the night, and that he "must rescue her", her being his bride (or so it's believed). After this, there are no more entries in the journal.

He has been known to help Neopets at times, by healing them fully through a Random Event. Even so, he was featured in the Gallery of Evil from the 8 May 2002 - replacing his the article of his former incarnation, the Ghost Lion.

Defenders of Neopia Series 1

Main article: Defenders of Neopia

One day, a Yellow Chia and his Tigermouse Petpet named Squeaky moved into a new NeoHome at 131 Soup Alley in Neopia Central. Unfortunately for the pair, the house was haunted by the spirit of the Ghost Lupe. The Ghost Lupe levitated a candelabra and threw it at Squeaky. He then followed the Squeaky and his owner around the house, popping out and frightening them wherever they went. The Chia, scared out of his own house, ran to the Defenders of Neopia headquarters and told Judge Hog about his ghost problem. Judge Hog agreed to help. After the user defeated the Ghost Lupe in the Battledome, Judge Hog trapped the spectre in a yellow striped ghost trap. This ghost trap is an direct homage to the Ghostbusters franchise.

Trivia

• The Ghost Lupe was originally known as the Ghost Lion, before it was decided he was to be remodeled as The Neopets Team "didn't actually intend Neopia to have lions". When The Neopets Team redid the character, they asked in New Features for the history books to "gloss over" this.
