Meet the Characters

- Casper (voiced by Robbie Sublett in season 1, and Matthew Géczy in season 2). He is a friendly ghost who struggles to be scary.
How the Show Was Made
The first season of Casper's Scare School aired between October and November 2009.
The second season started on October 2, 2012, on Cartoon Network. This new season brought some big changes. It had a new theme song and all the voices for the characters were changed. The computer animation also looked a bit different. One of the new voice actors was Matthew Geczy. He had also worked on another French show called Code Lyoko. He voiced Casper, Thatch, Stinky, Stretch, Wolfie, and Alder in the second season. Their voices became similar to his character Odd Della Robbia from Code Lyoko. Another actor from Code Lyoko, Mirabelle Kirkland, also joined the cast. She voiced Mantha and Jimmy in the second season. Some characters who were just in the background before got bigger roles. Their personalities also changed a little, like Thatch, who showed a softer side by playing with rubber ducks.
