~ Jinx introduces herself as the "most ruthless Joy hunter".
“
The living belong with the living, and the dead belong with the dead! You can't be friends, it's unnatural and against the ghost code! Say goodbye, Scratch. Because you're gonna spend eternity in the Flow of Failed Phantoms!
„
~ Jinx taking Scratch back to the ghost realm to punish him for being a traitor.
Jinx is the secondary antagonist in the Disney Channel TV series The Ghost and Molly McGee.
She is a ghost who works for The Ghost Council as a Joy Hunter, seeking out and destroying powerful sources of joy. She later becomes determined to destroy Scratch and Molly McGee for spreading joy in Brighton, violating the ghost code and killing The Chairman.
She was voiced by Liza Koshy in her first villainous role.
Jinx is a slender, light purple ghost with shoulder-length curly hair, a pink nose and yellow eyes.
Personality[]
Jinx is very obedient and loyal to the ghost code, The Chairman and the Barrister Ghosts, whom call her "the most ruthless joy hunter". She is always determined to find the cause of joy and eliminate it no matter what happens, utterly despising anything that is joy-related.
She first tries to be friendly with Scratch, but after he starts to play dumb on her, she gets desperate and begins to treat him bad, ultimately bringing him to the Council to punish him for being friends with a human, however it was later revealed that this behavior was only a facade to manipulate and give Scratch a false sense of security so he could make her mission easier.
It should be noted that Jinx herself has proven to be very sadistic, as she is seen smiling and taking pleasure in almost killing Molly McGee, a human child, with no remorse to it.
Despite the fact that she has a very cruel nature, Jinx is not incapable of fear, as she was genuinely shocked when Molly's joy destroyed the Flow of Failed Phantoms and was absolutely horrified when she also destroyed The Chairman with a single touch, even refusing to stop her from leaving with Scratch with a fight.
Jinx has also shown to have a motherly side around those who share her ideals, but it is most obvious around sobgoblins, she speaks softly towards them when everything is "as it should be" as seen when she addressed one of them as "little sobgoblin" and asked what it was carrying to her.
Unlike the rest of the ghosts, Jinx didn’t accept Scratch as the Chairman or the new rules and will do anything to avenge the original one and bring back the original way of the ghost world.
Powers and Abilities[]
Jinx posseses the normal powers of a ghost like levitation, intangibility, invisibility, teleportation, shapeshifting, dimensional travel, and presumably both curse-bidding and possession.
Apart from that, Jinx is able to summon a blue scythe that she uses as a weapon and she has shown to be efficient using it, she tries to murder Molly McGee using this weapon. Jinx is also seen having possession of mechanical gadgets that allow her to track any source of joy in the Human World.
She can also control and command the Sobgoblins and use them as her minions.
While this is more of a trick she invented than an actual power, as any soul living or dead can do this apparently, Jinx is able to trick people into partaking in the cursed jinxing game she made up and named after herself: when she and someone else (most effectively, another ghost) says the same thing at the same time and she says "jinx", that other soul finds they have bad luck every time they speak until she says the victim's name three times around them, whether on purpose or not. She isn't immune to her own trick, however, as this same curse can be used against her.
After obtaining the Chairman’s cloak, Jinx’s power became much stronger, going as far as to recreate the Flow of Failed Phantoms.
Hey! Scratch, is it? Jinx, hi. Look, I want you to just chill, breathe deep, and center yourself because together—me and you, you and I—we are going to get to the bottom of this whole joy thing.
„
~ Jinx's introduction.
“
Look, you scare humans. And those scares generate misery. And that misery feeds the Chairman!
„
~ Jinx explaining why the Chairman needs to create misery.
“
Aha, well here we go. It's this human girl, Molly McGee.
„
~ Jinx finds that the joy in Brighton is created by Molly McGee.
“
Ah no, no. Joy Hunter. That's why I'm here. To find the joy and eliminate it. Permanently.
„
~ Jinx declares that she will "eliminate" Molly.
“
Unless you've got some reason I shouldn't.
„
~ Jinx asks Scratch why she shouldn't kill Molly.
“
OK, cool! Back in a jiff!
„
~ Jinx goes to kill Molly.
“
HA!, I knew it the whole time!, You're friends with a human!
„

Fire up the Flow. I got a delinquent ghost here.
„
~ Jinx brings Scratch to the Ghost Council.
“
He’s friends with a living person!
„
~ Jinx revealing Scratch’s treachery to The Ghost Council.
“
Right. You actually cursed yourself. When I heard about it, I was like, "Wow, can anyone really be that dumb?" And yeah. Yeah, you are.
„
~ Jinx mocking Scratch for cursing himself and being "dumb".
“
Hey, little Sobgoblin. What you got there?
„
~ Jinx seeing a Sobgoblin who brought her a lamp covered in joy.
“
Aah! Ahh! This lamp is covered in joy!
„
~ Jinx getting scared at a lamp with flowers.
“
Sobgoblins, drain her!
„
~ Jinx ordering the Sobgoblins to drain Molly of her joy.
“
Aah! She touched me!
„
~ Jinx scared after Molly’s joy causes flowers to grow in her hair.
“
This! And no ghost wants this! And as for your traitor friend, into the flow he goes!
„
~ Jinx throwing Geoff into the Flow of Failed Phantoms.
“
Molly McGee’s a menace. Everything she touches turns to joy!.
„

“
What is happening?

That's for what you did to The Chairman, the real Chairman.
„

“
Why forgive, when you can hold grudges?
„

(Evilly Laughs) The power is MINE!!! Oh, and it has pockets? Oh-ho, this is gonna be fun.
„

“
I see what you’re doing over there but you can’t keep that sad act up, while looking at THIS!
„
~ Jinx tricking Molly into giving in to joyful videos so that her minions can feast on it and grow stronger.
“
This wasn’t on my vision board! You haven’t seen the last of me! (Scratch: I'm pretty sure we have.)
„
~ Jinx's last words before being imprisoned in The Chen's Phantom Canister.
Trivia[]
Jinx was shown to be able to toss Geoff into The Flow of Failed Phantoms, it still hasn't been explained if regular ghosts can also do that (While the portal is opened), if Jinx possessed that ability because she worked for the council or if only The Chairman has that power and this was an error.
Regular ghosts may be just able to toss someone into the Flow while the portal is opened, because Pango is seen doing the same in "Scare Tactics".
Jinx is named after the superstition of bad luck, which is befitting for her job.
