You might not know it looking at her, but Ghost Pepper didn't always wear that white sheet everywhere she went. She first put it on as a lark for a Halloween party one year. Everyone else had these elaborate costumes, and she thought that it would be funny to dress like a plain ol' ghost. But she fell in love with that costume. It spoke to her. She'd found her calling.

Plant Food upgrade
When fed Plant Food, it haunts all the zombies in a 5x3 area, dealing huge damage. It also resets its timer.
