What is beetlejuice person?

Beetlejuice is a fictional character, a bio-exorcist, from the 1988 American dark fantasy comedy film Beetlejuice, directed by Tim Burton. He is portrayed by Michael Keaton.

  • Occupation: Beetlejuice is a "bio-exorcist" – a freelance "ghost with the most" who helps deceased people get rid of the living.

  • Appearance: He has a grotesque appearance, often with rotting teeth, wild green hair, and a generally unkempt and decaying look. His makeup and costume contribute heavily to his repulsive but comical character.

  • Personality: Beetlejuice is crude, obnoxious, lecherous, and generally unpleasant. He uses deception, trickery, and outright manipulation to achieve his goals. Despite his repulsiveness, he possesses a dark sense of humor and is undeniably entertaining.

  • Abilities: He has a range of supernatural abilities including shapeshifting, summoning objects, and general reality warping. These powers are often used in chaotic and unpredictable ways.

  • Origin: While the film doesn't explicitly detail his origins, it is heavily implied that he was once a mortal man who worked for the Handbook for the Recently Deceased.

  • Weaknesses: Saying his name three times summons him, and he is then bound to serve the summoner (though he frequently tries to twist the terms to his advantage). Also, he can be banished or controlled through certain rituals and magical items described in the Handbook for the Recently Deceased.

The character's success led to an animated television series, also titled Beetlejuice, and a stage musical. The Beetlejuice character is a cultural icon.
