One cartoon had a humorous inversion of this: The Ghostly Trio are frustrated in that they can't scare anyone anymore, as the local animals have grown used to ghosts thanks to Casper.Maybe it's even the fact that he doesn't want to be scary, that he tries to go against his natural desire, and that makes him seem so off that people are more freaked out. Or maybe he just carries a really freaky aura about him. Maybe it's because he looks the least human or something. It's an interesting conundrum, isn't it? The Ghostly Trio and Spooky look far scarier in most of their appearances, but have to work to frighten people yet Casper, who looks totally non-threatening, can freak the norms just by smiling and saying "hi." There's clearly something else going on that we the audience can't sense.If I saw a little dead kid it would freak me out no matter how cute he was.He looks like a cross between a teddy bear and a lightbulb. Why are people so afraid of Casper? He doesn't look the least bit threatening.
