* HollywoodNerd: Perfectly pleasant to look at, but portrayed as something of a BasementDweller.

* LargeHam[=/=]PurpleProse: Ed and Harry in particular. Their dialogues and narrations are 95% cheesy quips, clichés, and overdone descriptions more befitting the goofy mystery flicks they're a parody of than than the grittiness of the actual setting.

* AllMenArePerverts: Ed, Harry, and Spruce mutually agree to fire the absurdly overqualified[[note]]He studied mysticism and the occult at Berkeley for four years![[/note]] intern Dave so they can hire [[BrainlessBeauty Ambyr]].

%%* ConfessionCam* ConfessionCam: In their titular episode, since they're filming a reality show.



* OccultDetective
* ParanormalInvestigation

to:

* OccultDetective
OccultDetective: Unlike hunters, they're content to merely investigate hauntings and collect evidence of the supernatural.
* ParanormalInvestigationParanormalInvestigation: Their specialty, although they're almost totally incompetent at it.



* WrongGenreSavvy: Constantly.

to:

* WrongGenreSavvy: Constantly.
Constantly. They're convinced that they're the plucky soon-to-be-stars of the world of celebrity ghost hunters and that Sam and Dean are a couple of jerks getting in the way of their spotlight.



* {{Manchild}}: He was apparently growing out of this sometime before the events of "#thinman", having gotten engaged and found a steady, well-paying job, only for him to lose both after regressing to his childish obsession with being a ghost hunter.



* {{Foil}}: With his friend Harry for the Winchester brothers. Surprisingly PlayedForDrama in the episode "#thinman".
* HollywoodNerd

to:

* AmbiguouslyBi: Considers "sex... with girls" one of the appeals of fame and spends most of the spinoff series blatantly hitting on Ambyr, but also never clarifies whether or not his LoveConfession to Corbett was sincere. "#thinman" also suggests that [[spoiler: he might be in love with Harry, given that he responded to Harry's engagement by faking an urban legend so Harry would spend all his time with Ed again and ruin his relationship with his fiancée]].
* BasementDweller: Still lives with his parents as an adult and spends all his time pursuing his dreams of being a ghost hunter instead of getting a real job. This is PlayedForLaughs in his early appearances when he was in his mid-twenties at the oldest, but [[PlayedForDrama takes a turn for the tragic]] when "#thinman" shows us that he ''still'' hasn't matured over half a decade later even as the rest of his friends have grown up.
* {{Foil}}: With his friend Harry for the Winchester brothers. Surprisingly PlayedForDrama in the episode "#thinman".
* HollywoodNerdHollywoodNerd: Perfectly pleasant to look at, but portrayed as something of a BasementDweller.
* {{Manchild}}: PlayedForDrama in "#thinman". He couldn't accept that the rest of the Ghostfacers were moving on to other, more stable careers and hobbies, so he [[spoiler: made up an urban legend to manipulate Harry into staying with him, which quickly turned into a SnowballLie that destroys their friendship]].



* RedheadsAreUncool

The Ghostfacers' intern who has a crush on Ed.

[[folder: Ambyr]]

!!Ambyr (Mircea Monroe)
The intern after Dave.

* BeautyToBeast: {{Downplayed}}, but she receives extensive facial scarring from her encounter with Janet Meyers.
* BrainlessBeauty: Hired entirely for her looks, and quickly proves to be ''extremely'' dumb.
* KindheartedSimpleton: She's stupid, but she's very affable and genuinely likes the nerdy, awkward Ghostfacers.
