Backstory: Gluemy Miller was a miserable kid that had only just moved to Webberton a week prior to becoming the feared spooky-man. Having been forced to settle down in an old creaky house after his mother's passing sudden passing and his father's promotion at Alchemax. Barely being able to grieve his old life and his dead mother before everything was uprooted and replanted in the most haunted town in upstate New York.

Gluemy never stopped being thrown into unfortunate circumstances as not even a week into him being at Spider-High, he started being made the target of both students and teachers alike as Gluemy was seen as nothing more than an outsider, someone to be eliminated, squashed out like an annoying bug.

Near the end of his first week at Spider-High, Gluemy received a letter from Mary Jane inviting him to meet in the garden shed behind the school. Oblivious to how he'd been set up, he took the note with him and walked into the garden shed, having expected MJ to be in there alone so the two could talk without Fish and his cronies hanging around. Only to find out Fish had tricked Gluemy and lured him into a trap, chasing Miller all around school grounds until he attempted to hide near the basement. A fatal mistake he would soon regret when he peeked out and Fish grabbed him, opening up the basement door and shoving Gluemy down the stairs and locking him in the basement for the night. Taunting the kid and hoping that the Spooky-man would get to him. His father not even acknowledging that his son hadn’t come home immediately after school.

Gluemy couldn’t remember much of what happened that night after he was tossed in the basement. He remembered very clearly however, the dark, misty figure of something that looked like an apparition, and a raspy hiss of a voice that spoke only in rhymes and limericks. Having been so frightened by the spirit and it's presence, Gluemy blacked out on the cement floor of the basement, and woke up in his bed the next morning with no recollection of how he'd gotten home.

Upon looking in the mirror Gluemy was horrified to find out that he looked like death himself had paid him a visit in his sleep. His eyes were sunken in, his skin had grown pale, and the color of his hair had darkened dramatically. Gluemy despite how sickly he looked when he first woke up still went over to school in order to prevent his father from getting a call from the office. He attended his classes like normal and then all the students started getting funneled in for Spider-High's 'pep rally'. With Gluemy being less than enthusiastic about being forced to attend when he was only a few days into his new educational experience.

Before the event could even begin however, Gluemy started being haunted by the same spirit that had frightened him after he tumbled down into the basement. Scaring Gluemy so bad that he ran from the gym and broke out into a sprint towards the graveyard that sat close by the school. The spirit (soon to be nicknamed 'Spooky' by Gluemy after their bond became established.) and MJ both pursued the young teenager, with MJ wanting to sincerely apologize for the prank while Spooky was ominously warning him to turn back and quit avoiding his fate.

With the ritual beginning to successfully ramp up in the danger department as the 'great beast' began to crawl out from the depths, a tree had gotten struck by a stray bit of lightning hit a nearby tree causing one of the larger branches to fall right over where Mary Jane was. Gluemy, without thinking had pushed MJ out of the way of the falling tree branch and saved her from his fate. Gluemy had died from the tree branch landing on him, his corpse was pinned, and any life that was left in his eyes had been completely drained. MJ went off to go get help but by the time she was gone, Spooky had already claimed Gluemy's body as it's new host. His heart beginning to beat once more as he awoke in excruciating pain, Gluemy's body morphing grotesquely into the form of the infamous Spooky-Man.

The pair after briefly getting acquainted with one another, both ran off to go save the students from becoming sacrifices for the 'great beast' that started to emerge during the pep-ritual. Throwing themselves into the flames for MJ and everyone who looked the other way when Gluemy was being picked on by Fish. Spooky-Man stole away MJ before she could get sacrificed, and as a last ditch effort to try and salvage the situation, Spooky-man stole MJ's soul and used it as fuel to fight back against the school spirit, subsequently destroying the entire school in the process and leaving all the entranced students participating in the 'pep-rally' dazed and confused.

Gluemy is now cursed to be the host of Spooky-Man's spirit for the rest of his life, however long that may be. Always being one terrible, horrible death away from becoming a creature of the night.

Extra Info: Despite being close to an Eddie Brock/Venom variant Gluemy and Spooky are counted as the spider-man variant of 103130.

Spooky/Gluemy consuming souls does not work in the same way that it does in the edge of the spiderverse comic, it more works like how soul stealing works in adventure time with the soul being separated from the body itself, leaving the body a hollow husk with a pulse.

Gluemy has scoliosis due to the cause of his death which causes him to have a misaligned spinal cord, it hurts for him to sit up straight because of it.

Gluemy's been hypermobile since he was a kid, it's not the result of the curse, his body had always been like that since he was young.

Gluemy has slightly jagged teeth now thanks to having grown canines after Spooky chose him as it's host.

Gluemy is very light sensitive post-bond with Spooky and prefers hanging out in the dark where he is less likely to suffer from eye-strain and bad sunburns.

Any non-spider related powers that Spooky-Man uses requires at least one living soul to use, after use the soul will be returned back to it’s original body with vague memories of previous events.

Gluemy's connections to the dead allow him to see and communicate with any spirits in the area. Spooky also aids in translating in case Gluemy can't properly understand what the apparitions are saying

Gluemy ever since he's become the Spooky-Man has become an encyclopedia of almost everything supernatural, almost. He's familiar with most manner of supernatural beings such as ghosts, vampires, werewolves, and zombies. But Gluemy has very little to zero knowledge about anything supernatural that's outside of his jurisdiction. He can't be trusted to give reliable information about any special cases of the paranormal outside the classic horror movie monsters.
