He is a self-proclaimed "bio-exorcist", who attempts to provide his services to newly deceased couple, Adam and Barbara Maitland, whom need a living family, The Deetzes, out of their haunted estate, though upon demonstrating himself to be an unstable and dangerous individual, he is quickly dismissed. However, as he manages to convince Lydia Deetz that he can assist Adam and Barbara after her parents put them in peril in exchange for marriage, his only way of becoming one with the living again, he reveals his villainous and chaotic tendencies.
