hi everyone! i know the first show was super exciting, but don't spread or post photos that were taken there. it's not cool.

we don't want to enable people to take more photos at rituals, as it can literally result in them being banned from future rituals.

not telling you to not save them, it's not a crime to download them... but be rational and think before you post anything that looks to be an unprofessional photo taken at the ritual.

[ghostbc-headcanons]

i am a firm believer in the "perpetua was a bishop" headcanon (that isn't really a headcanon because he has a bishop's... outfit ???)

like ..... ough just thinking about it makes my head hurt. imagine he was a bishop forever while he watched copia become the frontman of the band as a cardinal, seeing him be promoted to papa

initially being happy for him before the happiness turns into bitterness, because he remains stagnant in his position while his brother gets everything he wants... and copia doesn't even know perpetua exists

sighs really hard. i love perpetua

EVERYBODY KNOWS ANYWHERE YOU GO, YOU CAN NEVER RUN.

AND YOU CANNOT HIDE.

[ghostbc-headcanons]

i'm still alive! i promise! the last week has been very hectic for me (college... bites fist like copia). but hopefully this week - and the next - will be less so! fingers crossed i'll be back sometime soon.

[ghostbc-headcanons]

I gave you the best edit idea evur

that you did!

[ghostbc-headcanons]

so, uh... my last post is completely moot now. DAMN YOU TOBIAS FORGE, what do you MEAN copia was raised by the PSALTARIANS!!?!!?!?!?!?

although i do appreciate that copia hates perpetua. very fond of that. they should fight

[ghostbc-headcanons]

do you have any headcanons for young copia and sister imperator :3

SORRY I'M GETTING TO THIS LITERALLY so so late. my priorities suck but i hope that you enjoy this post!!!

YOUNG COPIA + SISTER IMPERATOR HCs

sister was veeeeery protective of him, despite not being his "mother" to his knowledge. she would have died for that kid.

as a result, copia always saw her as a mother figure. as he got older (probably around teenhood), he became embarrassed of that fact. but when he was little, he was attached to her hip.

sometimes copia would have nightmares, and sister would always sing him back to sleep with an assortment of italian lullabies. his favorite was ninna nanna di frà simon

copia wanted to be just like sister when he grew up :) now look at him! (sense of dread sets in)

keeping the fact that she was his mother secret was verrryyy hard on sister. she always wanted to tell him sooner rather than later, but time went by too fast.

because copia was so close to sister, he got to do a lot of stuff in the clergy that his brothers didn't do when they were little. think helping with the "body and blood" segment of sermons, getting to be on-stage while pastors/sister/nihil preached, etc. etc.

i think sister definitely spoiled him. which sort of gave him a bit of a complex as he got older but that's totally fine!

[ghostbc-headcanons]

this isn't finished enough for my art account on here, so here it goes! i have a lot of thoughts about that priest . and papa v but yknow priorities right

400 FOLLOWERS! + VIDEO ESSAY?

hi everyone! it's spinn :)

i wanted to say thank you for all the love on my terzo + copia post, first of all. i love those silly guys very very much.

secondly, thank you for 400 followers!! frankly, i'm not entirely sure how many of them are active at this current point in time due to my initial run on this blog being allllll the way back in 2022, but thank you nonetheless.

for the last couple of weeks, i've been wanting to make a video summarizing/going over the lore of ghost.

unfortunately, because i'm STUPID... i'm coming to you guys for help.

in this video, i'll be going over each of the eras individually. each of these segments will be based solely in canonical occurrences based on concert elements or from interviews.

after delving into the eras, there will be a segment at the end that goes over the fanon/fandom elements of the band.

SO! here's where you guys will come in.

if you have any resources regarding canonical information that you feel would work in a video like this, please send them to me (be it through dm, reblog, askbox, etc)! additionally, if you have any aspects of the fandom you'd like to be touched on in this video, do the same!

i'm not sure when it'll come out because i've got heaps of college stuff to do, but i'd really love to make this and i'd really love if it could be a bit of a community effort. those who wish to be addressed in the video will get total credit.

thank you for reading!

the stark difference between this piece and my latest terzo drawing is actually insane. what do you mean i drew this and also this just a little over 2 years later!

like. girl that doesn't even look like terzo emeritus what are you doing.

it's 10:30 pm, time to post terzo!!!!!!

[ghostbc-headcanons]

i hope you guys remembered i can draw!!! :) this was from a bunch of twitter requests i did a couple of weeks ago.

copia is very particular about how they play with dolls and terzo is the worst playmate in the world. somebody get primo over here!!!

[ghostbc-headcanons]

remember when ghost posted off stage stuff on their instagram? here's aether and ifrit being silly and holding hands

[ghostbc-headcanons]

hii :) do you have any headcanon treats abt the earth ghouls ? general hcs , relationships woth other ghouls/papas , anything would be cool !!

i am quite fond of earth ghouls and i think they are underrepresented in the fandom (as drummers usually are, to be fair) so i am elated to write this for you anon!!!

here are some tidbits about each earth ghoul individually :) if you need a guide for which ghouls are which, here's my very handy ghoul dictionary!

MOUNTAIN

coming in at a whopping 7'3, mountain is the tallest of all the earth ghouls! though his lankiness and sweet disposition makes up for most of the intimidation one may feel when interacting with him.

he's genuinely well liked by all of the ghouls! of course, there's a very strong bond throughout the era IV-V ghoul lineup, but you could say he's the glue holding them together.

they often come to him for cuddle piles cause he's warm and fuzzy. it's not usually intentional - one ghoul will end up snuggling with him, and then another, and then... he's buried under at least 9 other ghouls.

when he and copia first met, he could tell copia was petrified of him! so he always tried to be as kind as possible. eventually the cardinal grew to appreciate him for his determination, though those big teeth will always throw him off a little.

speaking of teeth, he has a big smile :)

DIATOMITE

diatomite is a pretty work oriented ghoul, but not to the point where he stresses out about it. he doesn't care THAT much.

...but he also doesn't care that much about his "coworkers" either. he was in the band for a little bit before he realized it was honestly... kind of annoying to be on stage like that.

he did make some friends: him and chair get along well. otherwise, he was okay with not intruding on the relationships that had already been formed.

he also didn't really get to know terzo very well, but a little part of him is glad. the man is a bit too exuberant for his taste.

he's happy to do work at the clergy! he really likes arithmetics.

PEBBLE

pebble is, of course, the shortest of the earth ghouls. he fabricates his height often, but he's really 5' tall. poor guy.

his relationship with the other ghouls was always a little rocky. he got picked on a lot (alpha always said it was "funny" when he got angry), but at the end of the day, they were his friends! he thinks. right?

one time he was lifted in the air by his ankles by a specific asshole-ish fire ghoul and he thought he was gonna die.

pebble is unique in that he spent time with both secondo and terzo when he was on stage. if you asked him who he preferred, he'd say secondo... but that's cause he's too scared of him to say otherwise. :'(

he's got a few battle scars from his time in hell, before he was summoned! he's missing a tooth and there's a chunk taken out of the tip of his tail.

PANGEA

pangea is... well, he's secluded, let's go with that.

as a result, he has virtually no relationship with any other ghouls. he did not care for his bandmates, he does not care for the new ghouls being summoned for the band. he deliberately has separated himself from them.

the only thing he ever cared about was working for primo. he admired primo. a lot. in a normal way. yes.

when secondo took primo's place as frontman of the band, he did try to stay for a bit, just to spread the word of the almighty deceiver. but he really disliked secondo, actually. his foolishness and poor work ethic pissed him off to no end. so he went back to the clergy!

anyways, he's really big and also soft and has a deep deep voice and i like him <3

ok i knowwwww i said i was gonna be back for real this time and then disappeared again SORRY!! i promise i will be back by this weekend. Do Not let me forget <3

GUIDE TO THE GHOULS: NAMES, ELEMENTS, VCs AND MORE

i've been meaning to make a post like this since the beginning of the blog but i put it off so long because i was terribly uncertain of myself lol.

but now that i am not, i am finally pushing myself to make this. it's also pertinent for this blog because a lot of the ghouls (particularly era I/II) are, like. completely disregarded, so i gotta make up my own shit for them.

DISCLAIMER: remember this is a headcanon blog and my portrayals of certain characters may not align with your view of them - i am trying my best! also, information is subject to change (a lot of them straight up don't have voice claims yet but i'm not worried about that).

SO. here is your guide to this blog's interpretation of the ghouls. let's get into it under the cut :)

FIRE GHOULS

ALPHA: Eras I-III, hot-headed, kind of an asshole. Voice claim: Cesare, Bigtop Burger

IFRIT: Era III, rambunctious, won't stop running around the Ministry. Voice claim: Jerma985

DEWDROP: Formerly a Water ghoul during Era III, was converted into a Fire ghoul by Era IV. Angry, short, slightly annoying. Voice claim: Dib Membrane, Invader Zim

WATER GHOULS

LAGOON: Eras I-II, very brutal, very metal, only a little dumb. Voice claim: TBD...

MARSH: Era II, laidback, but cares about his job a lot. A walking contradiction. Voice claim: TBD...

DELTA: Era III, very sweet, constantly looking out for his bandmates. Had a brief stint taking Omega's place, though it didn't last long. Voice claim: TBD...

MIST: Era III, snarky, holds a lot of wit but has a sweet goofy side. Voice claim: Anya Jenkins, Buffy the Vampire Slayer

RAIN: Era IV-V, independent, reliable, presumed shy but he just doesn't talk unless he's got something important to say. Voice claim: Julian Bashir, Star Trek: DS9

QUINTESSENCE GHOULS

OMEGA: Eras I-III, the one literally everyone knows and loves. Sweetie-pie. Voice claim: Snufkin, Moomin Valley

AETHER: Eras III-V, a little self-centered but silly about it so it's okay. Generally also sweet. Voice claim: Dan Avidan

PHANTOM: Era V, clumsy, foolish, VERY self-centered but also still silly about it so he, too, gets a pass. Voice claim: Joxer the Mighty, Xena: Warrior Princess

AIR GHOULS

STRATOSPHERE/ZETA: Eras I-III, very stiff, very proper, does things his way or the highway. Voice claim: TBD...

AIR/"CHAIR": Era III, very enthusiastic! A peppy guy. Voice claim: TBD...

CIRRUS: Eras IV-V, a bit proper, but don't be fooled - she loves a good party. Voice claim: Princess Leia, Star Wars

CUMULUS: Eras IV-V, genuinely the nicest ghoul you will ever know. Mother of the group. Voice claim: Leela, Futurama

EARTH GHOULS

PANGEA: Eras I-II, very scary and also intimidating and he's scary and scary. and . Scary .. Voice claim: TBD...

DIATOMITE: Era III, unbothered king. Literally so nonchalant. Voice claim: TBD...

MOUNTAIN: Eras IV-V, very sweet, very tall, gentle giant. Voice claim: Rhys Darby

MULTI-ELEMENT GHOULS

SWISS: Eras IV-V, freak. Will not shut up. Ever. Fire/Air ghoul. Voice claim: Hunter, The Owl House

SUNSHINE: Era V, genuinely a bundle of sunshine, just like her name. Fire/Earth ghoul. Voice claim: Ruby Gloom, Ruby Gloom

AURORA: Era V, chaotic, dorky, tries to keep the group happy. Air/Quintessence ghoul. Voice claim: Penny, Bigtop Burger

OTHER GHOULS

SPECIAL: Spokesman for the band, secretly theorized to be Lucifer in disguise. Voice claim: Tobias Forge (duh?)

COWBELL: Silly guy. Played the cowbell once on stage. Technically an Earth ghoul. Voice claim: TBD...

any headcannons on how copia deals with the grief of sister suddenly dying (I don’t care how angsty they are, make me cry if you wish)

wow what a great ask to come back to! (said with a cheery disposition (i love writing angst))

i think, unfortunately for copia, his main coping mechanism is utter dissociation. this displays itself really well in the movie, with the whole hot air balloon sequence until he suddenly comes crashing back down to reality.

so a lot of his time after sister dies is spent distracting himself. being promoted to frater imperator gives him more of an excuse to not think about the fact that his mother is dead. this is not healthy, this is not good, and he is aware of that but he would rather be unhealthy than be met with a devastating truth.

but sometimes, despite being swept up in all the hullabaloo of the church, he is met with things that remind him of her. a place, a smell, a phrase - it could be anything, and it flips a switch in his head that just ruins him. he'll be having a formal conversation and the person will say something that reminds him of sister, and he has to excuse himself because he will start fucking bawling. and that would suck to do in front of a random ghoul!

he really tries to put on a brave face. he tries very hard to disregard any foolish feelings because he knows that she wouldn't want him to linger on her death like this, not when there's a whole church to run in her absence - but by satan, is it fucking hard.

eventually, it comes to a crux. certain ghouls and siblings notice he isn't doing well, that he seems disheveled or out of it, like he isn't all there. so he starts to get asked if he's okay, and at first he brushes them off but if one more person asks-

he just cries. he cries.

after this event, certain members of the clergy work together to get him help, and he works on gaining better coping mechanisms. the dissociation was definitely getting bad, so as embarrassing as the whole ordeal is, he is silently grateful that he has such caring followers.

...

and then she shows up as a ghost and it's totally ok and he never has to be sad again the end!

[ghostbc-headcanons]

okay i realize that it's probably a good idea to reintroduce myself. than just jumping back into the ghost tags as if anyone knows who i am. lol.

hello! my name is spinnaker ghoul, and i write headcanons for the band ghost! i have been a big fan of the band for the last 2 and a half years, and i made this blog in sept 2022.

i have tried to revive it a few times, but i would really like this time to COUNT.

SO! if you have headcanons you'd like me to write about, please send some asks! i'd appreciate if you could look over the blog rules first, though :)

additionally, this blog is SFW/PG-13, but if you are an adult with NSFW headcanon ideas, feel free to send them to @ghostbc-hcs-afterhours (18+ of course minors please DNI)

forever yours,

spinnaker ghoul
