Ecto Leeches[1] (also known as Electric Leeches)[2] were a group of ghost leeches who served their queen, Lilith.
History[]
The Ecto Leeches are ghosts who feed on electrical energy. As a result, they are attracted to large power sources.[3] They then confer the absorbed energy to their queen, Lilith. In November 1997, they caused a power blackout and attacked two ConEd employees named Stan and Charlie. ConEd called in the Extreme Ghostbusters but after three hours and three miles of raw sewage, Egon Spengler, Eduardo Rivera, and Kylie Griffin returned to the Firehouse empty handed. They received a second call sighting the Ecto Leeches but where nearly carried away by a wave of water accidentally released when Kylie shot a wall. During the third encounter, at a power plant, they managed to trap two leeches.
Lilith released the trapped leeches and trapped Slimer. She returned to her lair underneath Penn Station and used her leeches' energy to form a Bio Containment Vortex. Lilith planned to trap humans in it and use their life force to provide her with limitless power. Slimer was released and he slimed two Ecto Leeches then trapped Lilith.
Powers[]
According to Egon, Ecto Leeches have incredible energy absorbing capabilities.
