Basic Clothes
Spectra has very pale white skin and long purple hair with matching purple lipstick and pale blue eyes. She wears a black dress with a chain belt,her shoes are purple and have chains wrapped around them.

Classic Monster
Spectra is the daughter of "the Ghosts", and her chain accessories suggest she may be related to Jacob Marley's ghost from the Charles Dickens story A Christmas Carol.

Jacob Marley was a business partner of Ebeneezer Scrooge, and together they delighted in cruelty, stinginess and greed. Marley died and Scrooge continued the business, but was too stingy to pay someone to paint out Marley's name on the sign outside of the office.

Eventually, Marley's ghost appears to Scrooge to warn him about his own fate in the afterlife: he is covered in chains "long, and wound about him like a tail; it was made... of cash-boxes, keys, padlocks, ledgers, deeds, and heavy purses wrought in steel."

While Jacob Marley is the most prominent fictional ghost where the chains are a distinct motif, chains have often been associated with ghosts in legends even before Dickens.

Family
Her parents are ghosts, but nothing otherwise is known.She is possibly daughter of two ghosts on Charles Dicken's "A Christmas Carol".

Pet
Spectra's pet is a purple ghost ferret is named Rhuen which is latin.Rhuen's friends are Sir-Hoots-Alot (Ghoulia yelps owl) Also Shiver (Abbey Bominable's pet wooly mammoth)
