** When Danny chases Freakshow's ghosts a second time, they all phase through a billboard of Freakshow holding up his crystal ball. This foreshadows that (sans [[NotBrainwashed Lydia]]) all of them are under Freakshow's control.

* CircusOfFear: Circus Gothica is a cover to rob towns, and the ringmaster (appropriately named Freakshow) uses his staff to brainwash ghosts and force them to work for him. Not to mention what almost happened to Sam when she was forced onto the tightrope...

Just as a strange rash of ghost burglaries begins, Circus Gothika comes to town -- a dark, bizarre, creepy CircusOfFear led by a RepulsiveRingmaster named Freakshow. Sam couldn't be more thrilled (her parents, not so much) until she notices how weird her friend starts acting whenever he gets near the circus. By the time she learns all the performers are ghosts under Freakshow's MindControl, he's already recruited their newest member -- Danny Phantom.
