Gus the Hitchhiking Ghost is one of the famous residents of the Haunted Mansion. Formerly known as Gus Gracey, he now uses his ghostly powers to haunt mortals that visit the Haunted Mansion together with the other Hitchhiking Ghosts, Ezra and Phineas. During his life, he had a murderous personality and tried to kill several family members. His parents had him institutionalized in the New Salem Insane Asylum, but he escaped to murder again. He ended up in Master Gracey’s mansion, where Madame Leota placed a curse on him to imprison him on the mansion’s grounds. He died from accidentally throwing his ball and chain into a well and falling with it. As an operative of the Haunted Mansion, he must bring in new residents to try to fill up the quota from the Ghost Relations Department. Prepare yourself when boarding one of the Doom Buggies in the Mansion, Gus loves to try to escape the house with you!
