Ghosts of Halo

Introduction
Ghost are unknown characters that spawn out of nowhere. They usually do not have a gamertag and don't show up on the scoreboard. It seems that they have auto stick capabilities. They can be hostile if provoked, or for no reason at all. They also seem to be indestructable. Although some Ghosts have been killed. (Such as in the Ghosts of Turf.) They seemingly appear in random games. and sometimes an inexplicable scream can be heard.

But in most cases Ghosts are just odd blips that show up on motion tracker, and Vehicles that spawn in the sky and fall great distances and usually killing a player. But some cases report Driverless Vehicles, which can possiby controlled by a ghost character.

Recent Hotspots on ghost activities in Halo 3 would be Sandtrap which has alot of Vehicle related Sightings. and Valhalla which most of them involve the Pelican Crash site.

False Ghosts
False Ghosts are strange happenings in Halo that do not depict ghosts, but minor glitches. The term "ghost" used in Halo originated from the famed Ghost of Lockout. This ghost is indestructible, has no movement animations, uses plasma grenades as a primary weapon, can only face the four compass directions, and has no turning animation. Because this is where the term "Ghost of Halo" originated, it is the official description of a true ghost. Anything such as the following:


 * Vehicles moving by themselves
 * Random grenades, explosions, weapon fire, and Wraith mortars
 * Ghost with turning animations or walking animations
 * Ghosts that are killable

indicates a "False Ghost". The first two on the list above indicate system glitches and ARE NOT Ghosts of Halo, but merely False Ghosts. The last two are usually hoaxes, mods, or Bungie Staff.

Nearly all the "ghosts" in the lists on the bottom of the page are hoaxes or mods. The other fragment of the lists depict False Ghosts. Only two or three (Including the Ghost of Lockout) are official Ghosts of Halo.

History
A video appeared on Youtube in July of 2006 by a user named AfRoSaUcE who claimed it was over a year old and made by Jump Tactic's Anti Noob (the link and the full description of the video is shown on the Ghosts of Lockout). It really was old, first appearing on mythica.org. It quickly became popular and speculation was raised that it was some form of mod. AfRoSaUcE denied the allegation, believing it to be a network problem. (Although, if it was a network problem, there would be slim chances of it actually saying "Killed By Guardians" when a player is killed by it).

Since the video's first appearance, several new videos have surfaced, with characters who do have gamer tags, running animations, and the like. However, a number of mods have surfaced with players controlling characters without these which can obviously be seen, but not on Xbox Live. Recently a player called Shadow has claimed that it is not impossible for this to occur on an Xbox without any sort of System Link or Xbox Live. His "Ghostly" encounter is as follows:

Other "ghosts" have appeared on other maps. One such occurrence was the "Ghost of Turf" found and filmed by clan HollywoodHalo. This ghost displayed all characteristics of the Lockout ghost (no Gamertag, sliding across the floor, no weapon animations). The most interesting thing about this occurrence is that two ghosts appeared. It was this that revealed that these ghosts were caused by extreme lag.

Theories
(Believable Theories)
 * Caused by extreme lag. This may be particularly true when players are joining the game.
 * Caused by "standbying".
 * Caused by a network problem coupled with a mod.
 * Created by Bungie to keep the game moving.
 * Created by Bungie as a tie-in to their Alternate Reality Games (i.e. Cortana Letters, Ilovebees, Iris, etc.)
 * Bungie entering into people's games on Xbox LIVE. (Could Possibly Explain Ghost of Blackout)
 * A game bot created by Bungie, to practice, but never deleted.
 * Two different online games running on at the same time in the same map, but ending up in the same server.
 * Caused when someone leaves the game (start menu, leave game.)(as in the xJeffGordon24 incident.)
 * Random, misplaced programming for game that Bungie had put into it by accident such as "Player Throw Grenade", "Player Kill Player", etc.
 * Some say it may actually be a real ghost, (Not Likely)
 * Some hackers have reported AI codes in maps, codes similar to Brutes.
 * Bungie may have put an AI into Halo 2 and halo 3 disks, which explains the appearances, and the fact that the majority of games played are offline.
 * Some reports of ghosts may be hoaxes.
 * Some sightings may be attributed to peoples minds playing tricks on them.
 * Deleted sections of game code which have correlated and caused a loop animation or related bug.

*Please note:
The following sightings are based off of eyewitness accounts, and should not be considered as fact. They have no evidence to back them up, and are either false ghosts or hoaxes/mods. Every on of the sightings below are most likely untrue.

Ghost of Lockout

 * A video on YouTube (made by AfRoSaUcE) showed two players (anti noob & The Underdogg) on XBL were playing a custom game. The first part of the video shows one player (The Underdogg) went to go eat. So the other player decided to "jump around" for a bit. After one player went AFC, the other crouched and walked to a wall. As soon as he turned around, his friend had a plasma grenade stuck onto him. After he exploded, a white spartan was gliding to the corpse and threw another grenade without seeing anti noob. The second, third and fourth part all show the ghost sticking anti noob (each time) and The Underdogg (shown only once). During the final part, anti noob is being pursued by the ghost, until he runs into a corner. The ghost glides past him and the player hides behind a barrel. As he shifts to the side to check if the coast is clear, the ghost is standing right behind the barrel. The player (assumingly panicking) pushes the explosive barrel at the ghost. The barrel does not expode and the ghost sticks the player.
 * Another incident a person called Shadow Dragon was killed by no one and it never said a message so got a few friends and looked and saw a gold and red coloured spartan in which wouldnt die and killed nearly all the players except for ShadowDragon his friend and his cousin which was on XBL ShadowDragon is still investigating and annalyzing yet when the incident happend ShadowDragon heard manical laughter but it was only the red team his friend was on blue and listened to his but no laughter so the friend went to ShadowDragons headphone he heard it

Ghost of Turf

 * The Ghost of Turf was filmed by the clan "Hollywood Halo", this video is rather odd because two ghosts were in it and even more strange because the two ghosts were shooting at each other, ending in one of the ghosts dying. This is very strange because these ghosts are killable while ghosts in other videos are not and during the video there were two white-armored Spartans that lost connection. Therefore extreme lag may have caused the two players to become ghosts, however, it is still unknown why the 2 ghosts were in a firefight.

Ghost of Beaver Creek

 * On Halo 2 Vista, a lone Elite was waiting for his friend to start a server on a custom map so he could download it. During his waiting, he walked up to the ledge with the sniper rifle and noticed a blue Spartan slide toward him, sword cancel off him, then kill him. The weapons set was human weapons only, and in the history of other players in the server, only the friend who left, who had blue armor but was also an Elite.

Ghost of Midship

 * A Spartan (Brownie556) was playing Slayer on Midship with his friend before he had Xbox LIVE. The Spartan killed his friend with a Shotgun and just as his friend died, the Shotgun-wielding Spartan randomly dropped dead. It was claimed that the Spartan was killed by the Guardians. No one else was in the match.

Ghost of Ivory Tower

 * Two Spartans were fooling around in the back hallway when the host killed the second player by the end of the hall. A ghostly figure, an exact copy of the second player, who was still respawning, appeared out of the wall, ran towards and through the host, and ran into the wall at the other end, disappearing. Neither players had Xbox LIVE.

Ghost of Coagulation

 * During a match of One-Bomb Assault on Halo 2 Vista, a Spartan was seen wielding a bomb and sliding across the map. Strangely, the Spartan was orange and was holding the bomb while blue team was arming it. Its gamertag did not show on the player list, and no other player had orange for their armor color.


 * A teal/blue Elite Ranger supposedly roams the upper cliffs surrounding the gulch.

Others

 * There have been several other ghost sightings on other maps such as Ascension, Headlong, Terminal, Backwash, Containment using a Sniper Rifle, Burial Mounds, and most likely all the other Halo 2 multiplayer maps.

Halo 3 Ghosts
Most Halo 3 Ghosts come in their custom colors and armor. They also have energy shields, and can pick up weapons. If you're lucky, you can kill one.

Ghost of Avalanche

 * While trying to get out of the top of the map in a Hornet, a lone Spartan saw a Banshee outside of the boundary, which instead of firing plasma from the wing tips, shot Fuel Rod cannon shots.


 * During matches on Xbox Live (mainly during the first few days prior to the Legendary map pack's release), a scream would be heard spontaneously in the red base.


 * When trying to make a map variant in Forge, 2 players were attacked by random Spartan Laser fire. This occurred in the middle room of Avalanche. ( http://www.bungie.net/stats/halo3/screenshot_viewer_popup.aspx?gamertag=Ace%20Hwk&ssid=37978300 )

Ghost of Blackout

 * As soon as April 15 of 2008 (release date of the Legendary Map Pack), a group of players in Forge posted on several forums that they had seen a black Spartan just like those described in previous stories run from the bottom of the stage (where the shotgun is) into the fan/grav lift and get launched up. When chased, the "ghost" was nowhere to be seen.


 * There is a video on Youtube that contains footage of a Ghost, however, that ghost isn't indestructible so it is unconfirmed whether this is a true ghost or not. The ghost acted almost human-like, toying with the players and was killable. This helps support the theory that the ghosts are in some way actual players.


 * On May 12 a single player in forge was playing around waiting for his friend to arrive in the game when he saw a black semi-transparent figure in security armor standing on the 3rd floor of the sniper tower. He claims it just stood there and didn't move, and he spawned a sniper rifle, picked it up, and shot the ghost,thinking his friend joined the game.  When he shot it the ghost threw a plasma grenade and stuck him.  He tried to talk to it thinking it was his friend but it didn't answer. He then checked the scoreboard and saw that there was no one in the game.  After searching the entire map his friend joined.  He asked his friend if that was him but the other player denied it.  After reviewing the tape in the theater he noticed the ghost had its gun down. He was signed into Xbox Live when it happened.  He took a single picture of the ghost.

Ghost of Cold Storage

 * When forging with friends (demin892, halo wars xoxo,and masashi kishimo) zangor13 saw a power drainer recharging and nobody else could see it.(This may be the first ghost sighting of Cold Storage but it is highly unlikely.)

Ghost of Construct

 * On March 16th of 2008, two Spartans were forging on this map and found a Power Drain (activated but not affecting shields) floating in the air. Only one Spartan could see it in their Theater and in the game. Later in that game they found a random, 2D shadow moving through the bottom area of the level. As they approached it, it disappeared. One of the Spartan that couldn't see the Power Drain lost his connection. But was easily able to connect to the game again. It wasn't until a little more than a month later that the Spartan that couldn't see the power drain could finally see it in the other Spartan's Theater (he saved the video in-game).


 * On May 31st of 2008, three Spartans, Ownikron, Jasx4, and Ownikron's guest, were overloading the map on Forge when a random grenade appeared. The Ghost was seen in blue armor with a Hayabusa helmet, Security shoulders and Katana body. He threw many grenades, but the only person ever hit was Ownikron's guest. When killed, the game said he was betrayed. Everyone was on the level below when extremely fast grenades flew by Ownikron's head while he was on the level above. All grenades had flown through walls.

Ghost of Foundry

 * April 15th, three friends were playing Infection. A transparent Elite appeared and killed all three. A message appeared, saying "killed you". The Elite's Gamertag appared like this: 000-1173437/7/074535346264635. This code makes several references to aspects from the Halo storyline: Bungie Day (7/7/07 or simple 7/7), 343 Guilty Spark's number, and Master Chief's service tag (117). Upon further Xbox LIVE investigation, the gamertag was not found. Also, the code contains repeated use of the number 7, Bungie's favorite number. Someone claims to have decoded this with a codeing system. They claim that is decoded into GUARDIAN.


 * April 11th, 3 Spartans were playing on a forged map when a Spartan with all orange Mark VI armor appeared and started attacking them. The ghost did not appear on the player list and the 3 other Spartans had gray and pink colors.  Strangely, the ghost had most of the characteristics of the Ghost of Lockout.  You can see the video here:   (However, notice that this ghost can be killed.)


 * Once, while playing on Forge Gman9091 saw an unknown spawn happen and no one appeared, not even a body.


 * Once, |3lind Sn1per was forging when a fire bomb grenade was thrown at a box he was using. When he went to see what threw the grenade, he looked at a ghost (vehicle) and after 2 seconds, it killed him when boosting. When investigated in Theater, he couldn't see anything that could have caused this.


 * On July 10, ChaosTiger, ChaoTiger's guest, Juicehead21, and A Huge turdFart were forging Halo City Medieval when all of sudden, a figure went in the "Castle". The players grabbed Gravity Hammers and Energy Swords thinking it was the guest. Then when they looked inside the Castle, A huge TurdFart went to the Dungeon and saw a figure above him throw a fusion Coil down and kill him. The other two players attacked the Ghost but were killed by a battle rifle even though none were spawned. After an investigation of the Whole map with rocket launchers and shotguns, they found nothing.

Ghost of Ghost Town

 * On April 20th of 2008, two Spartans were forging on this so called "creepy" map (on gloomy feature). One deployed a Bubble Shield and it kept recharging itself (deployed near the pitch black gloomy tunnels). Only one Spartan could see it until both watched the Theater.


 * On June 15th of 2008 two players were forging, a Sergeant and Gunnery Sergeant (dragonfableplayer). When they were about to end the game, the Gunnery Sergeant saw a black Spartan surrounded by a green mist, the Gunnery Sergeant was about to tell his friend but he ended the game. However, a few minutes later, they reviewed it in the theater but there was nothing there.

Ghost of Guardian

 * There have been people claiming to have seen a green, transparent Spartan on this map.


 * One player in offline Forge game was standing near the active camouflage like the one stated above, there was only one Brute Spiker across from the camo. Then the player looked away for a few seconds (that allegedly) seemed like hours, then he looked at the Brute Spiker again and there were 2. Another two seconds later the 2nd one disappeared. (This may be a multiplying ghost) after exploring the whole map no other players were found.


 * In a 3 vs. 3 game with all players as Spartans, an Elite showed up on blue team. It did not attack the blue players. As with most ghosts, it was not shown in the player list. It had the abilities that these ghosts usually have: Sliding, always hitting even though facing other directions, etc; although it was possible to avoid its grenades, and it also reloaded its Assault Rifle. Later on in the game, a red team Spartan appears, copying the actions of the Elite, with the exception that it attacks the blue team and ignores the reds. Neither the Spartan, nor presumably the Elite have a Gamertag. The video in which this is shown can be seen here.


 * Three Spartans (ONI recon and two friends) were playing forge and were all wearing blue armor. Player 2 kept getting red dots on his radar, and players 1 and 3 kept briefly seeing a blur or a faint green spartan. They were building when it reappeared and weapons began to disappear. The last sighting was when blurs of green began crossing the screen and then they quit. The host didn't have XBL.

Ghost of High Ground

 * It has Been Rumored that A ghost with a Spartan Laser Haunts this map.


 * On April 21, 2008 one player was performing the casper glitch, then saw a white Spartan glide past him. The player decided to kill himself to see what/who its was, but no one was around. He went back to where he did the casper glitch and the crates he used were gone, except one, but within 2 secs it sank into the floor. This player was not signed in to Xbox Live.


 * On June 3, 2008, a lone Elite was trying to make a fat kid map, when he was shot by a spartan laser. The player had closed the party, and when watched in theater a spartan laser spawned in midair and shot the monitor elite. the player had invulnerability on.


 * While a lone spartan [Killray064] was putting a Grav lift in front of the closed gate in forge the gate opened. When he switched back to player mode where the gate was it closed on him, but since there's no closing animation it just suddenly shut killing him(This could be like the haunted vehicle glitch but instead the terminal was haunted).

Ghost of Last Resort

 * A lone player on Xbox Live was in Forge mode when a Bubble shield activated from nowere. Upon further investigation on theater mode, the source of the shield was unseen. see here


 * Two friends, both of them Spartans, were forging for a future Machinima series, when without warning, seven Spartan Laser shots attempted to kill them, one player looked past the turbine to see a "ghost" wearing a Hayabusa helmet, EVA shoulders, and a Mark VI chest piece, just like the player who viewed it, straight down to the colors and symbol, looking straight at him. The ghost stood there for approximately 7 seconds before the turbine passed it, and it disappeared without a trace. It should be noted the ghost wielded an Energy Sword and a Spartan Laser.


 * A single Spartan was in Forge mode. He placed some objects, and changed from the Monitor to a Spartan. He looked at his motion tracker, and saw a red enemy blip. When viewed in Theater, no "enemy" could be seen.


 * Two friends, one Elite one Spartan, were trying to do the flying crate glitch on the beach, when a frag grenade appeared out of thin air and exploded underneath the two players. No other players had entered the game and both players where in the Monitor mode while the grenade appeared. After further investigation no source of the grenade was found.


 * Whilst playing on Forge with his own Crimson Elite in Monitor mode, a player was making a high tower with all different things near the two Mongoose's. The tower fell and when he turned back into player mode he was shot 8 times rapidly with a Plasma Pistol his shields were completely depleted even though the player had 3x shielding, when he looked in Theater he saw a Brute Chieftain wielding a Plasma Pistol, he then faded off the map. It unknown if it is even possible to have a Brute on a Multiplayer map.

Ghost of Narrows

 * While playing in a offline match with a friend on a custom map the first player was going through the man cannon when they bumped into each over and he fell to his death about 2 seconds later the second player was going through the man cannon then a plasma grenade came up from the ground or the lower bridge and he got stuck and was killed though it said "Stephen117 stuck you". Stephen117 is the first user. It said this even though Stephen117 didn't throw a plasma grenade and was still waiting to respawn.

Ghost of Rat's Nest

 * On April 4th, 2008, a lone Spartan in a Forge game was hit by an exploding barrel while riding a Mongoose. Although the exploding barrel was already worked into the map, the player had set invincibility on him order to make forging easier. Later, in the same game, he was killed once again in Monitor mode (once again, invincible) while away from any kind of danger or edge of the map. During this death, the sound of an exploding Plasma Grenade was seen and heard, though the replay only saw the player dying without an explosion. Both deaths were counted as "Killed by Guardians" kills.


 * On May 23, 2008, a lone spartan was playing around with a Spartan Laser, when he heard and saw the light of another spartan laser charging, but not fire, he was on Live but no one had joined or left, and he was in monitor mode.

Ghost of Sandtrap
-It has been rumored that a Orange Spartan Haunts this map.


 * During a Splitscreen Forge with his brother. Bacon11 was placing vehicles around the map. After saving the map and starting a new round in forge after changing the game type. His brother spotted a Floating Mongoose near one of the Structures. The object was not placed there during the last forge and it seemed to fall on anyone who walked underneath it. it seemed to be place up past the sky barrier so you couldn't move or delete it. So after being killed several times by the falling mongoose, they simply abandoned the map and deleted it.


 * A lone spartan was playing forge when he saw a grunt holding an energy sword walking around in circles,when the spartan walked up to it,the ghost slashed him and it said "killed by the guardians".On theater mode only a floating energy sword was seen.


 * There have been reports of glitches during custom matches in which an activated Spike Grenade was seen twirling in 360 degree motion and levitating towards Aegis Fate off of the map. This scenario has been commented on as a "less harmful Ghost appearance". These may be glitches making the game think that they are the mines.


 * Once in a off-line Forge match, Mongooses began spawning from mid air where no one had placed them. then when the host stepped under them it said "Killed by the Guardians".
 * A lone Spartan was Forging offline when he saw something fall from the sky. It was only a glimpse. In Theater the things were shown to actually be some Mongooses spawning in Mid-Air. When he looked around him there were also 2 Scorpions and a Wraith falling from the sky. There was also a small orb looking like a Monitor, but it disappeared after 3 seconds.


 * Two Spartans and an Elite were overloading Sandtrap with land mines offline in forge when one player went to check if the minefield was off. Two Mongoose's fell right where the player was standing. When viewed in theater the Mongoose's were shown to have spawned out of thin air.


 * In an invite-only Infection Match, four Zombies were spying on the Last Man Standing when they heard the sound of someone getting into a Warthog, when one Zombie turned around he saw a driverless Warthog heading straight for the four of them. The Warthog continued to follow and Splatter the players until few minutes before the game ended. The map was a Custom Gametype with only Elephants and Mongooses.


 * On April 27,2008 two friends were playing Forge Sandtrap ghost hunting when a Mongoose was spotted on radar being moved like that of a Monitor but with a much brighter light.


 * One Spartan was playing an offline Forge session and then before the player edited the map in the way he wanted it a Mongoose fell out of the sky and killed him. The description of death said "Killed by the Guardians".
 * Several players were playing a customized Sandtrap when a random Mongoose fell from the sky in the middle of the map. The player who made the map didn't remember placing the Mongoose and when trying to deleted it could not find where it spawned.


 * Two spartans (ONI recon 111 and friend)were in an offline game scouting a racetrack on forge they had made, when one of the four Mongooses disappeared. Both were in player mode when it happened, they were running to get to another mongoose. After five minutes it hadn't respawned. One of the players (the host) turned into the monitor and flew up to the center of the level, only to see the missing mongoose outside the map boundaries at the foot of the giant mound. Neither of the players had Xbox Live.


 * A red Spartan was simply having fun on Forge by himself when a huge friendly contact appeared on the radar. After a number of seconds the contact disappeared. He was alone in the match and the network was local,the Spartan was on red team but red blips were appearing on radar and blue team were not playing.He then started seeing a mysterious orange Spartan, similar to other claims. The Spartan was driven to quit after the incidents continued.


 * On the 29th of May, one lone Spartan, was flying a Hornet Aircraft on a Forge map he made. He saw a red Spartan wearing Mark V armor run across the map. Seconds later he was blown up by a Spartan Laser. Upon inspection on Theater mode he found that the Ghost disappeared after the sighting. He had XBox Live on a closed Party by himself.


 * Jasx 4 claims that a spartan came out of the back of the ship where there's an opening. The spartan then came to the map and was a ghost. NOTE: Ownikron and Jasx4 have realized that overloading the map can cause him to appear.


 * April 13, 2008, two players in Forge were beginning to create their own machinima. As they finished, the first player, a blue-orange Elite, WarLord Wango13, saw a poor-camoed, white colored Spartan holding what seemed to be a shotgun and spartan laser. The Spartan shot, killing the second player. As soon as the elite looked to see his comrade and look back at the figure, he died. The reading told him that he was betrayed by "McSwishy", an earlier account of the second player, SwishierMonster. During theater, the laser can be seen, but the Spartan is in the form of a monitor.


 * Pyrofire93, Bigmon11(who was on the same Xbox as pyrofire93) war hog 12541 and Zeo1137 were ghost hunting and Zeo was overloading the map while pyrofire93 and bigmon11 were on turrets and war hog was in a ghost on the other half of the map. Pyrofire93 and Bigmon11 both said they saw a blue orb smaller than an active camo but bigger than a plasma grenade float past. When Pyrofire93 asked if anyone but them saw it, bigmon11 said he saw the word guardians above it is if it had a gamertag. Investigation in theater showed no such sighting anywhere.


 * During a ghost hunt on sandtrap zangor13 and a friend where overloading the map (this was on Xbox Live) when suddenly three mongooses dropped out of thin air near the sniper spawn, luckily none of the players where near it.the video can be found on zangor13's fileshare under the title "Ghost Gooses".

Ghost of The Pit

 * A ghost was seen on The Pit. The only two players were trying to overload the map with Trip Mines. One player's Xbox 360 crashed forcing him to leave and reboot. The second player turned and saw a new third Spartan phasing out of Active Camo and was stuck with a Plasma Grenade in the face. All this time the third Spartan was looking away. The second player's system then crashed too.


 * Players have claimed to hear mysterious maniacal laughter in numerous areas of the level. This might just be a sound effect built into the level, as playable characters do not laugh.

Ghost of Valhalla

 * It has been rumored that a ghost haunts the area around the pelican crash site.


 * Another Ghost haunted ABC949 and Guns n Roses 86 while they played on Valhalla. Right when they started, Wraith mortars shot out of the ground and 3 yellow dots appeared on Guns n Roses 86 radar while only 2 on ABC949. This video will not be on Guns n Roses 86 file share but on ABC949's


 * On June 15th, Guns N Roses 86 was walking by the downed pelican when 2 blips appeared on his radar. one seemed to be coming from the cockpit of the pelican. This video is also in his fileshare.


 * A Spartan was trying out a new map variation which had a Wraith in it and he went over to a Grav Lift and all of a sudden a Frag Grenade went off on the Wraith. Luckily, the Spartan was not killed or even damaged. Review on theater has shown nothing other than a Frag Grenade spontaneously spawning in mid air.


 * Two players were Forging offline(User:Omar-065 and User:Pink Bitch), when a steel standard Mark VI Spartan appeared out of nowhere ran past the players, jumped, and disappeared. When the players looked in theater mode, the game lagged when the ghost should have appeared. The spartan had a default AR, and his gamertag was full of random numbers, apparently coding of some sort.


 * On a Matchmaking game, Team Slayer,a player named dedted7 was waiting for another player to come out of cover when he saw a Black Elite run from the crashed Pelican with a Spartan Laser and Gravity Hammer. He watched it and was suddenly killed by a Spartan Laser beam. He was constantly shot with it for the rest of the game. The game was Shotty Snipers with no other weapons available. All players were Spartans and every player was killed by it.


 * On June 27th, 2008, after gathering information and listening to stories told by Spartan-777, drummeraaron went searching for the ghost of Valhalla. He got in a Scorpion and drove by the Red base. His friend drove by the Blue base in a Mongoose and saw a Red Spartan standing in the doorway, which then disappeared. Further searching revealed nothing. They tried to overload the map by laying tripmines, then suddenly, sniper shots destroyed the mines. A red blip appeared on the radar, but no one was there. They played around for a while, then the Red Spartan returned. Drummeraaron zoomed in on it, but it vanished. He later walked into the middle of the map and was hit by a sniper shot. He returned a few minutes later, where he was hit by another sniper shot. A shadow passed over his head. He ran to the Blue base and was hit by a Spartan Laser shot that seemed to eminate froma nearby rock. They walked into the middle of the level and were injured by a random frag grenade. They quit the game and looked back on Theater, which showed nothing.
