Lah
Debut: Sonic: Night of the Werehog
Voiced by: Momoko Ishikawa (Night of the Werehog), You Taichi (Ghost Tale)
The main "antagonist" of her debut short. A mischievous ghost that lives in a mansion with two ghost photographers. She has a hobby of collecting photographs of the terrified expressions of anyone who enters the mansion.
- Affably Evil: Subverted in that she's not evil, just mischievous. But she is rather friendly.
- Big Bad: Played with. She's only considered the main antagonist by being the driving force behind the Ghost Photographers' actions and for no other reason. Otherwise, the three of them barely qualify as villains and their actions are juvenile at best.
- The Bus Came Back: After 15 years since Night of the Werehog, Lah makes her grand return in Ghost Tale (barring her brief cameo in the IDW Comics).
- Collector of the Strange: Her aforementioned hobby of collecting photographs of the terrified expressions of anyone who enters the mansion.
- Continuity Cameo: During the Misadventures arc of the Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW) comics, she, along with Su and Uh, re-appear for the first time in fifteen years as a quick cameo when Sonic and Blaze run through Spagonia's underground sewers. She still has a crush on the hedgehog, indicated with the little heart when Sonic passes by.
- Cute Ghost Girl: Very much so.
- Dude Magnet: What else can you call someone who's willing to have two ghosts scare the crap out of people and photograph their terrified expressions just to get a kiss from her?
- Flight: Thanks to being a ghost and all.
- Harmless Villain: She's not evil in the slightest.
- Hidden Depths: Apparently, she's a fan of horror movies as her room is littered with movie posters. Kinda makes sense considering she's a ghost. Unsurprisingly, she falls for Sonic when she sees him in his Werehog form.
- Impossibly-Low Neckline: Her outfit reveals her shoulders.
- Love at First Sight: With Sonic due to his Werehog form. Lucky Amy wasn't there...
- Non-Action Big Bad: She mostly stays in her room admiring her photo collection while the other two do the work. She only takes action near the end of the short where she disguises herself as Chip.
- Pink Means Feminine: She's a female ghost dressed in pink.
- Villainous Crush: She has one on Sonic, though the "villainous" part is very downplayed, as she's not really evil; just mischievous.
- Voice Grunting: Like with other characters in the short.
- Voluntary Shapeshifting: Uses this to disguise herself as Chip, though she seems incapable of hiding some of her traits such as her voice and her beauty mark.

Debut: Sonic: Night of the Werehog
Voiced by: Ryan Drees (Su, Night of the Werehog), Kevin Glenz (Uh, Night of the Werehog), Kosuke Echigoya (Su, Ghost Tale), Hayato Kaneko (Uh, Ghost Tale)
Two ghost photographers who live with Lah. They take photos of the terrified expressions of those who enter the mansion, making it a contest between them as they constantly attempt to win Lah's affections.
- Affably Evil: Though evil would be considered a stretch as they only do what they do to win Lah's affections.
- Bond Villain Stupidity: If they hadn't stopped to argue over who'd take the photo of Sonic, they would have won.
- The Bus Came Back: After 15 years since Night of the Werehog, Su and Uh make their grand return in Ghost Tale (barring their brief cameo in the IDW Comics).
- Co-Dragons: To Lah.
- Combat Pragmatist: They pretty much beat Sonic simply by staying invisible and intangible the entire fight.
- Continuity Cameo:
- The two make an appearance in the Xbox 360/PS3 versions of Sonic Unleashed in the missions "Tower Terror" and "Fright Fight".
- During the Misadventures arc of the Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW) comics, they, along with Lah, re-appear for the first time in fifteen years as a quick cameo when Sonic and Blaze run through Spagonia's underground sewers.
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: When the two start working together, they flat-out mop the floor with Sonic in their fight.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: This is pretty much the only thing you can call their fight with Sonic. Thanks to their invisibility and intangibility powers, Sonic can't land a single hit on them and they pretty much humiliate the poor hedgehog.
- Disproportionate Retribution: The two tried to kill Sonic just because he accidentally made a fool of them when he transformed into the Werehog, causing them to take photos of their own terrified expressions.
- Easily Forgiven: If Marza's Twitter account is anything to go by, the ghosts are all on friendly terms with Sonic
after attempting to scare and later fight the hedgehog in the the original short. - Fangs Are Evil: In their regular and Fusion Dance forms. But again, evil is a rather relative term.
- Fat and Skinny: Su is fat with a bowtie, while Uh is skinny with a bandana.
- Fat Bastard: Su.
- Flight: The two of them can fly.
- Fusion Dance: They can fuse to form a large, green minotaur-like ghost named Baker.
- Green-Eyed Monster: Not only do they constantly attempt to outdo each other, but they won't take kindly to whoever else wins Lah's affections. So when Sonic accidentally makes a fool of them, It's Personal. Taken most literally with Uh as he has actual green eyes and even more literally with their Fusion Dance form.
- Intangible Man: Being ghosts and all, which they take full advantage of in their fight with Sonic. They still however can collide with walls or be struck by physical attacks.
- I Shall Taunt You: When Sonic tries taking pictures of them in order to find them, the picture show them posing casually, yawning, and sticking their tongue out at Sonic.
- Invisibility: Another "comes with the territory" trope.
- Laughably Evil: They're a hilarious pair of ghosts... Until they decide to get serious, giving Werehog Sonic a pretty troublesome fight later on.
- Lean and Mean: Uh.
- Lying to Protect Your Feelings: In Ghost Tale, when Lah gets upset at being unable to levitate a piano, both Su and Uh combine their powers to lift it up, making her believe she did it. They try maintaining this façade later on, when she tries to lift up a tree.
- Mind over Matter: Ghost Tale shows that both Su and Uh have the power to telekinetically lift objects, with the strength of their powers being proportional to their sizes. They of course try and show each other up, performing tricks in front of Lah while attempting to outdo the other. When they work together, they can lift up a piano using their telekinesis, though not without difficulty.
- Not-So-Harmless Villain: When the two of them first try scaring Sonic in Night of the Werehog, they are bumbling and incompetent, only managing to get themselves scared. When the two fuse into Baker, they suddenly put up much more of a challenge that gives Sonic and his Werehog form trouble.
- Our Minotaurs Are Different: Baker, their Fusion Dance form.
- Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Their fight with Sonic in a nutshell, both of them embarrassed at that they were upstaged by him in front of Lah.
- Sickly Green Glow: Baker, their Fusion Dance form.
- Smug Smiler: This is Su's default expression.
- Stout Strength: Su, being the fat one of the duo, has this attribute despite being a ghost. Demonstrated best in Ghost Tale, where he can levitate a heavy chair by himself. When working together with Uh, the two can levitate a piano off the ground.
- Supernatural Gold Eyes: Su, who has golden eyes and is a ghost.
- Technicolor Fire: Their Fusion Dance form seems to glow with green flames.
- Top-Heavy Guy: Their bull form, Baker, has huge, beefy arms and a large chest. Somehow, they're able to stand up despite having legs that look like sticks.
- Undying Loyalty:
- The two will do anything for Lah, even if they don't like doing it. The two went ahead and kidnapped Chip on her orders despite looking visibly uncomfortable doing it.
- When Lah tries to levitate a piano like the two of them, she is unsuccessful, but the two lift it for her when she isn't paying attention. They struggle to do so, especially when she does it with a tree outside, but they still try to play along and let her believe she can do it.
- Vitriolic Best Buds: Seems to be the basis of their relationship. They constantly attempt to outdo each other, and don't get along very well. But as Sonic nearly learns the hard way, if they share a common goal, they are quite capable of working together.
- Voice Grunting: Like with most characters in the short, they only communicate with grunts and actions.
- Voluntary Shapeshifting: Su, used in an attempt to scare Chip.
