Biography[]
History Life before death[]
Before her life as a ghost, Desirée was a harem girl who won the heart of a sultan. He promised to grant her all her heart's desires and even a kingdom of her own. However, she was thrown out of the palace by the sultan's jealous wife. She died of a broken heart and old age, although she somehow regained her youthful appearance as a ghost. Her backstory implies that she once genuinely used her powers to help others.
First apparition[]
At some point in history, her spirit somehow ended up in a genie's bottle and she was on display at a trading market. There, a girl accidentally released her. When Desirée was freed, she granted cotton candy wish, producing a tidal wave of it that destroyed the market (much to the delight of a dentist). In the present day, she continued granting wishes: Dash turns into a Hulk-like creature to crush the other soccer team, Paulina turns into a cute and popular anime character: Sayonara Pussycat, and gives a surfer's car. the uncontrollable power of flight. When Tucker (who was jealous of Danny) wanted ghost powers, she gave him powers that consumed him and he turned evil as time went on. A rivalry between him and Danny took place. Finally Danny captures Desirée wishing that she herself be locked in the thermos.
Days in prison[]
She had a brief cameo in the episode Prisoners for Love as one of the many ghosts in Walker's prison. She helps Danny and Skulker escape from it.
Back to the wish business[]
She later appears as the main villain in the episode Memory Blank, when she arrived in time for the meteor shower that occurred during Paulina's quinceañera party. She first destroys the sale of non-environmental trucks when Sam wishes it, giving life to a giant cow. Then, when Sam accidentally wishes something bad would happen to Paulina, she brings the "Trinity of Death" to life as a trio of ghosts to hunt down and kill Paulina. When Danny fights Terminatra, Sam wishes she had never met Danny after they had a fight. Desirée granted the wish and created a world in which Danny did not know Sam, therefore he never gained his ghost powers, as his accident was caused in part by Sam. Sam was fighting for Danny to get his powers, which he did successfully, and now fighting an inexperienced Danny who tried in vain to control his "new" powers to stop Desirée, who was becoming stronger and stronger due to the great number of wishes that were made during the meteor shower. Sam finally wishes that Danny would get his memory back. Danny again seals Desirée in the thermos, to which she notes, "I have to stop granting every wish I hear."
Kingdom Storm[]
She had another small cameo in Reign Storm, when Skulker led millions of ghosts out of the ghost zone to escape from Pariah Dark.
Christmas Eve[]
She returned again in The Fright Before Christmas, as one of the many ghosts who helped Danny stop the Ghost Writer and save Christmas.
Saving Earth and the Ghost Zone[]
She was seen briefly in the series finale, on Phantom Planet, first suffering an attack by Vlad's ghost-hunting team, the Masters' Blasters and later helping Danny, Skulker and millions of other ghosts make the Earth intangible to save their homes.
