    Haunter (Japanese: ゴースト, Hepburn: Ghost) (HAUNT-ur) is a Ghost/Poison-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. It evolves from Gastly at level 25 and evolves into Gengar when traded.

    Physiology

    Haunter is a purple, spiky, floating figure with triangular eyes, tiny pupils, fangs and disembodied, three-fingered, clawed hands.

    Behavior

    They feed on the life force of living things, waiting in the darkness for unwary prey to wander by. Then, they sneak up on their victims and lick them. This causes uncontrollable shuddering in their prey, who are slowly drained of life until they die. Like Gastly, Haunter are also pranksters. They may trip unwary travelers or place ghostly hands on their shoulders to scare them. When a Haunter is around, those nearby feel paranoid, as if they are being watched (which they are). Haunter can also feed on fear. Though research has shown that such a diet is not very energy-efficient, it is believed that some Haunter have learned to feed on these feelings because they are “sustainable;” by not killing victims, some Haunter have successfully used cities as “farms” of sorts, scaring people as necessary and feeding on their fright. Many ghost “hot-spots” are in fact popular Haunter feeding grounds. Since Haunter detest light, well-lit towns are usually devoid of them. In some regions is said that Haunter come out on moonless nights looking for victims to lay curses on.

    Characteristics

    Haunter can pass through solid walls. It is because of this that it is believed it is from another dimension. It can also sap away the life force of a target by licking them with its tongue. These licks will always cause constant convulsions to a licked being until it dies.

    Origin

    Haunter appears to be based on ghosts. It may also be based on depictions of ghosts in Japanese mythology, which are often depicted with long tongues. It may also be based on the Philippine myth of the Dila, a spirit known for licking ill people (possibly where it gets its poison-type from) until death. Its poison-type may also come from bad omens and how they can bring sickness.

    Etymology

    Haunter may come from haunt, specter, and hunter. It may also literally be the word haunter.
