Ghost Powers are the paranormal and supernatural abilities that a ghost has. Ghosts are made of ectoplasm and can use ghost/ecto-energy to accomplish a variety of supernatural effects.
This article lists the ghost powers seen in Danny Phantom. A few abilities are formally named in the show itself, such as the Ghost Ray, Ghost Sense, and Ghostly Wail, while most of the abilities detailed below are descriptively named, such as Ecto-Energy Constructions, Energy Strike, and Chronolock, and/or may use recognized terms that are utilized outside of Danny Phantom, such as supernatural strength, duplication, and cryokinesis.
There are certain instances where ghosts are not the exclusive users of ghost powers. Half-ghosts, such as Danny Fenton, possess nearly all the abilities of a ghost despite still being half-human. Additionally, it is rare but possible for ordinary humans to possess temporary ghost powers as a result of ghostly influence and/or technological inventions.
