Ghost Stories
is a Crossover between Danny Phantom and The Avengers.
Danny was not happy. After two years of fighting ghosts, he thought he could handle strange. But when a bunch of costumed weirdos who worked for a super-secret law enforcement agency kidnap him, demanding that he help fight against a wannabe vampire and a megalomanic god with a grudge, he was really considering retirement from the hero gig.
Not to be mistaken with the anime Ghost Stories, Ghost Stories (1964), or Ghost Stories (2017).
Tropes:
- Crossover: The fic is a crossover between Danny Phantom and The Avengers.
- Fantastic Racism: Thor really despises ghosts.
- Living Battery: Maddie and Jack developed the Fenton Ecto-Extractor, a machine that when a ghost is locked inside is capable of sucking out and converting it's ectoplasmic energy into a usable power source that could theatrically power up half of the town if the ghost is strong enough. According to Jack the only ones, to his knowledge, that would be strong enough to pull that off would be Danny Phantom and the Wisconsin ghost. You could understand why Danny's so disgruntled and disturbed by it.
- Town with a Dark Secret: Subverted in Amity Park's case. Natasha finds the town incredibly suspicious to the point where she's willing to investigate it herself with Bruce who tags along. While it looks like any regular town who's profiting from a promotional hoax to boost tourism and exports, SHIELD's been picking up weird readings from there. As they don't believe in ghosts, to them it looks like the towns suffers under a city-wide delusion instigated by the townspeople's desperate attempts to ignore the perpetrator's horrific amount of vandalism that seemed to occur in its borders. They later come to find out that's obviously not the case.
- Villain Team-Up: Loki and Vlad work together.
