Carrie Krueger

Carrie is a supporting character in The Amazing World of Gumball. She is a depressed ghost who is in Miss Simian's class at Elmore Junior High. Her first appearance was a cameo in "The Third."

Appearance
Carrie is a white, translucent ghost with a bow that seems to resemble a skull with wings. Her arms rest in front of her body, and her emo bangs cover her left eye. She also has a red and blue lining around her, making her seem 3D. When Carrie gets angry, she reveals a set of sharp teeth, although she never actually bites anyone with them.

Personality
Carrie, being an emo, enjoys being miserable. Unlike most emo kids, who usually only hang out with other emos, Carrie is a social floater who will talk to anyone; possibly because Elmore Junior High lacks other emos. She regularly interacts with the other girls and usually participates in Gumball and the rest of the class' antics.

In "The Ghost," she states pain is the only emotion she can feel. Despite this, she has shown other emotions and has been seen smiling on occasion.

Trivia

 * In "The Ghost," while Carrie was going on a junk food spree in Gumball's body, she took the pickle out of the burger before eating it, implying that Carrie dislikes pickles.
 * Based on what Carrie said at the beginning of The Ghost, Carrie may have been alive before, but died at a young age.
 * Carrie is the only undead student in the school.
 * Gumball considers Carrie as a date to the party because she has "spirit".
 * She occasionally flips her hair, suggesting that she has actual hair.
 * Carrie's 3D anaglyph outline is a reference to b-horror movies.
 * Her name-sake may be related to the character Carrie White, a bullied, shy high-school teenager who reeks revenge on her enemies in the Stephen King novel, Carrie.
 * Her reflection doesn't show up in mirrors, which is based on the superstition that undead things don't have reflections. However, when she possesses someone or at least inhabits their body, the person will see her instead of their reflection.
