Sometimes the heroes may go up against near-impossible odds where they think they don't have a ghost of a chance; until their backup turns out to be the real deal. This trope occurs wherein somebody dead, often a friend or a relative, assists a living character directly. This doesn't refer to mere advice or moral support; this is when the dead character actually has a physical (usually magical) effect on the world of the living. This can include Spirit Advisor, offense, defense, and often healing. See also Not Too Dead to Save the Day. If the backup comes all the way back, it may be a Climactic Battle Resurrection. Compare Cavalry of the Dead, where this trope is applied to an entire fighting force. See also Guardian Entity. As a Death Trope, all Spoilers will be unmarked ahead. Beware. |

At the climax of Sunrider 4: The Captain's Return, Kayto Shields tries to pull off a Spaceship Slingshot Stunt to escape from the PACT navy, but the Maray's engines aren’t powerful enough to escape the gravity well of the rapidly expanding new star that it's diving towards. In desperation, Kayto prays to the ship's namesake, his deceased sister Maray, asking her to be patient because he's not going to rejoin her today. In response, Maray's spirit appears before him and supercharges the ship's Twin Drives, giving it just enough power to pull off this stunt. | |

In the climax of Zeta Gundam, Kamille uses his Psychic Powers (with a boost from the Zeta's Biosensor) to call for help from the spirits of his slain friends and allies, which shuts down Scirocco's Humongous Mecha and allows Kamille to ram it. Done again at the end of Double Zeta when the spirits of various deceased characters gives Judau's ZZ Gundam a power boost to use against Haman. |

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: after freeing a Divine Beast from Calamity Ganon's control, the spirit of the Champion who piloted it will set the Divine Beast in place to attack Calamity Ganon when Link goes to confront it. Each Champion also provides Link with some of their power, appearing by his side when he uses them: Mipha's Grace tops off Link's hearts (plus a little extra) when they run out, Urbosa's Fury conjures lightning in a wide area around Link, Revali's Gale creates a powerful updraft that lets Link ascend from the ground quickly on his paraglider, and Daruk's Protection creates a force field that renders Link impervious to harm. | |

Alma from First Encounter Assault Recon, in a twisted way. In the non-canon expansion pack Extraction Point, she often wipes out incoming Replica troops and opens paths for the Point Man, for a good reason. Even better: FEAR 2, the reason being she's in love with the main character, Becket. Only by the loosest definitions of the word. |

In Splinter of the Mind's Eye, the very first novel of Star Wars Legends, it's not actually stated that Obi-Wan Kenobi briefly possessed Luke Skywalker in order to fight off Darth Vader, but considering the sudden dramatic uptick in Luke's dueling skills and the fact that he told the Sith "I am Obi-Wan", this is generally what fans assume happened. | |

The first DBZ example is spoofed/homaged at the end of Excel♡Saga, when Pedro and his son are helped by the ghosts of every major character who died up to that point, and their combined Kamehame Hadoken blasts That Man into dust, finally rescuing Pedro's wife and the Great Will. The scene is goofy, badass and heartwarming at the same time. | |

The Dresden Files In Book Three, Harry is being hunted by a ghost who vastly overpowers him. So what does he do? He DIES. But he has someone resuscitate him so he can then team up with his ghost. (In the Dresden Files universe, ghosts are spiritual "imprints" of the dead, not the dead themselves.) In Book 13, he is the backup, after having arranged his own death. And then he arranges for more otherworldly backup when he has to storm the castle, in the form of an army made up of hundreds of ghostly murderers and serial killers. |

Supernatural: In Season 1, Sam and Dean return to their childhood home to find it the subject of a violent haunting, and the new resident and her children in danger. Turns out the house is haunted by a poltergeist and Sam and Dean's dead mother, Mary, who assists them in the fight with the poltergeist. John Winchester appears at the end of the second season, having escaped through a hellmouth and proceeds to grab and fight with Azazel. He only manages to struggle with Azazel for a few moments before he breaks free, but that still gives Dean the chance to grab the Colt and use it to finish Azazel off. There is a villainous version of this in the season finale of Season 4 when Azazel slaughters a church full of nuns and uses one of the bodies to communicate with his master, Lucifer, who is trapped in Hell. Lucifer is able to give his minion a long-term plan for freeing him from his cage. In Season 7, Sam and Dean's surrogate father Bobby dies, but he sticks around as a ghost for multiple episodes, helping them defeat the Leviathans before the brothers put his soul to rest. A few seasons later, Bobby helps Castiel break Metatron out of Heaven. |

It's a pretty minor thing, but in Galaxy of Fear: Ghost of the Jedi, Aidan Bok helps Tash call on the Force to make the Big Bad's aim falter. He then scouts for her as she flees, telling her what is where and how to shut down a machine in a rather more direct, precise kind of advice than most ghosts are known for. | |

Necromancers in Kelley Armstrong's The Otherworld series often get assistance from the dead, usually in the form of advice or spying, although in one book a poltergeist (telekinetic ghost) provided some more direct assistance. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender Dead Avatars often come to the current Avatar's aid. Sure, to do that, it means possesing his/her body in an Unstoppable Rage, but it does help. (Usually). Avatar Kyoshi does briefly take the helm of Aang's body so she could explain to the people of Chin Village that she didn't actually kill Chin. The season 1 finale also involved Aang getting some direct help from the Ocean Spirit itself when the Fire Nation finds a way to "neutralize" the Moon (and thus all waterbending). Both the Ocean and the Moon spirits crossed over to the physical world ages ago in Avatar, but they were still otherworldly in nature so it counts. |

Episodes 5 and 6 of Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger introduce Ramirez, a Kyoryuger from Europe's Dark Ages, returned from the dead to grant the new team the use of his mecha, Ankydon. He even gets to morph like they do! Later on, in episodes 17 and 18, we're introduced to another Spirit Kyoryuger named Tessai, a martial artist from Ancient China. Like Ramirez, he returns from the dead to support the main Kyoryugers by granting them his mecha Bunpachy, and is also able to morph when needed. |

It does not include dead Rangers whose powers were already passed on, like the second Kiranger, and the first Battle Cossack and Yellow Four. As Gosei Green is inexplicably not counted among the official heroes, he's not part of this list either. are explicitly shown to have fought in it. As Gai shows, they don't quite lose their powers due to being dead. This was nearly averted in the planning stages, where only the living Rangers would be participating in the scene, before the idea was vetoed to have even the killed-off Rangers resurrected for the big battle, which has the added bonus of showing how badly every hand on deck was needed. | |

In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, the "ghosts" that spring out of Voldemort's wand during the Priori Incantatem effect rush Voldemort when Harry breaks the connection. While they can't actually harm or restrain Voldemort, their ghostly forms obscure his vision for a few seconds, allowing Harry to escape. In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Harry uses the Resurrection Stone to bring back the ghosts of his parents, Sirius and Lupin to give him moral support when he confronts Voldemort. |

In the backstory of Blasphemous, there was a girl named Tentudia whose hair grew as a succession of long thorns. While this sort of suffering would normally be seen as a sign of the Miracle's grace, she was instead denounced as a heretic and sent to a convent, only for the nuns of the convent to murder her. The Penitent One can find her scattered remains and bring them together for a proper burial; if he does so, then brings Cleofas back to Albero, he receives the prayer "Tiento to Your Thorned Hairs". While this prayer is active, if the Penitent One would take damage from anything other than a spike trap, Tentudia herself briefly appears and blocks the hit. | |

The Wheel of Time: This is the function of the Horn of Valere, which is inscribed with "the grave is no bar to my call." However, it has a rather specific stipulation about usage - "Let whosoever sounds me think not of glory, but only of salvation" - and it is bound to whoever blows it. No one's entirely sure where it comes from or how it works, to the point where it borders on Wrong Context Magic. All anyone knows is that it summons constantly reincarnated dead heroes - with the exception of the Dragon. Usually they live in Tel'aran'rhiod in between reincarnations, and heroes are occasionally added to the horn as Noal Charin a.k.a. Jain Farstrider is at the end of the series. While summoned, they remember all their past lives and are incredibly, if vaguely, powerful - there's only a hundred of them, but they can devastate vast armies. Things get complicated partway through the series when one of the Heroes of the Horn, Birgitte Silverbow, intervenes on behalf of the heroes in Tel'aran'rhiod (which is against the rules), and gets blasted out of the Dream into reality. Unlike normal reincarnations, she's a woman in her prime with all her memories, but is otherwise a normal woman (just an absurdly good archer). As the series goes on, she starts losing her memories, and it's feared that she might have been permanently separated from the Horn. In A Memory of Light, however, she is killed and then immediately re-summoned when Olver blows the Horn, proving that she's just fine. |

In G.I. Joe Cobra Commander tried using supernatural forces to call upon the restless spirits of three warriors; his first mistake was thinking he could control them. The second was summoning three who were more likely to side with the Joes' interests. (One of them was even an American World War I pilot.) Lady Jay even made light of the situation when the three spirits changed sides, saying, "I never thought we'd be getting backup from the netherworld." | |

Final Fantasy: The Final Boss Fight of Final Fantasy IV hinges on this trope, with all the ex-party members aiding the party after the Big Bad defeated them. Similarly, Final Fantasy V has the five major characters who died during the game come back and help you out against the Final Boss, though they don't help in battle. Auron of Final Fantasy X does this, and has been doing it the entire game having died 10 years earlier — it's only through sheer force of will that he's not passed on. Technically, Tidus also does this, as it's revealed very late in the game that Tidus & the Zanarkand he hails from are merely the cumulative dreams of a deceased people known as Fayth. It's subverted, however, as he didn't know any of the other party members (Aside from Auron) beforehand. Final Fantasy XIV: During the final battle in the Return to Ivalice raid questline, the player is aided by the spirits of the Zodiac Braves against the Seraph Ultima. As Ultima is poised to overwhelm the players and the Braves, Ramza's spirit appears to even the odds. During the Seat of Sacrifice boss battle in FFXIV 5.3, Elidibus banishes the player's party into the Void. Following a successful Active Time Maneuver, they call upon the aid of Emet-Selch, who was killed at the end of Shadowbringers, who rescues the party from the Void. While he appears as a generic ancient Amaurotine, his Character Tics — his Badass Finger Snap and flippant, dismissive farewell wave — out him as the Big Damn Hero. |

At the end of Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, Billie learns that the Outsider's mark is actually his original, human name and returning it to him will strip him of his divinity. Unfortunately for her, only the dead can read said name, but she runs into the lingering spirit of her late mentor Daud in the Void and can persuade him to whisper the Outsider's name to him instead of straight up stabbing the Void deity dead. | |

In Aunt Dimity's Death, Dimity helps Lori get rid of an unwelcome visitor (Dr. Evan Fleischer, an obnoxious college classmate) who invites himself to her cottage. She literally slams the door in his face, makes the cottage turn strikingly cold when he enters anyway, fills the living room with smoke from the fireplace, and causes him to break a tooth on one of Lori's oatmeal cookies (which "contained nothing more tooth-threatening than some chewy raisins.") | |

In Warrior Cats, the Last Hope, which was originally intended to end the series, the Dark Forest, effectively Cat-Hell, invades the world of the living, and the clans are only saved when Star Clan and the Tribe of Endless Hunting, the Cat-Heavens, join the fray. Every cat who has died over the course of the series is fighting either for Cat-Heaven or Cat-Hell in the final battle. However, given how large the cast is, most go unmentioned aside from the most prominent personal encounters. | |

A terrific example in Kingdom Hearts III; at the Keyblade Graveyard, the Demon Tide grows to absolutely titanic proportions. When Sora goes to dive into it directly, he is greeted... by Ephemer, of all people. Cue the fallen Keyblades scattered around the Graveyard rising up of their own volition, Sora mounting a Starlight in the storm for the ride, and a massive string of Situation Commands named after the players of Unchained χ[chi]/Union χ[cross]. | |

The Bridge: The story repeatedly has mention of a 'hot wind' blowing by at key points during the Climax Boss fight with Grand King Ghidorah and the Nightmare Godzilla incident that preceded it. The fic takes inspiration from Rebirth of Mothra 3 with Grand King Ghidorah devours souls to power himself up. While battling him alongside Xenilla, Junior frees those trapped souls who, with aid from Harmony, allow the presence in that hot wind to take shape: Godzilla Senior, who helps his sons destroy the King of Terror once and for all with a Family Spiral Fire Ray. During the 2019 Halloween Special, Destroyah distracts the kaiju sized Giranbo in her pony form so the Cutie Mark Crusaders can escape her realm, despite fully expecting to die in the process. The Crusaders refuse and attempt to power Destroyah up into her kaiju form to save her as Giranbo is on the verge of killing her, but lack the ability to do so on their own. Their resolution inspires the ghosts of the many adults who Giranbo had murdered during their failed attempts to save her countless child victims to rise from the mass grave she threw them in to lend their power to the trio to give them the needed push while guiding their beam, allowing Destroyah to be empowered into her kaiju form. A second example occurs when Giranbo manages to gain an upperhand by exploiting Destroyah's weakness to ice. The Cutie Mark Crusaders realize Giranbo's oven was containing the souls she was preparing to consume and open it, letting them all rush out in mass to disrupt Giranbo's magic and prevent her from being able to use ice magic. |

Dragon Ball Z is the trope namer, almost always being fulfilled by Goku: At the end of the Cell Saga, Goku assists Gohan in delivering a superpowered Kamehameha, albeit with more emphasis on emotional support: Goku was technically still in Other World the whole time, but Gohan really needed his father telling him to go all-out. The famous shot of Gohan's one-handed Kamehameha with Goku performing it behind him is therefore metaphorical, but is still one of the most famous images in the franchise and is often taken literally. In Dragon Ball Z: Bojack Unbound, Goku teleports himself out of Other World for an instant and punches Bojack in the face to save Gohan. As pictured above, Goku gives his aid again in Dragon Ball Z: Broly – Second Coming for Goten and an adult Gohan in a rather on-the-nose recreation of the Cell Saga scene. The movie is intentionally vague however as to whether Goku was actually there or not, and doesn't provide a definitive answer. In the Buu Saga, Goku returns to the world of the living for a day, initially for a fun tournament but eventually to take on the various villains of the arc. Later on the same would happen to post-Heroic Sacrifice Vegeta since the situation had gotten THAT desperate, and Goku would return from Other World again via a different loophole, this time for good! |

Charmed: Dead relatives of the Charmed Ones pop up quite often (with one notable exception) to assist, give advice both on magical and mundane problems, and sometimes outright defeat the Demon of the week. Grams often uses her telekinesis from the afterlife to flip the pages of the Book of Shadows and help her granddaughters without manifesting herself. She's also the one who's summoned the most by the Sisters. Patty appears to Prue first and Piper then while they're about to drown, to help them overcome their fears – of drowning itself and of leaving her baby motherless respectively – and save themselves. The first and perhaps most iconic instance, though, is when the Charmed Ones summon their ancestor who originated their bloodline and the Charmed Ones prophecy: Melinda Warren. Notably, she manifests as a corporeal entity and has a lot of magical and familial interactions with the Sisters before helping them vanquish an ancient Warlock. Phoebe comes up with a spell she believes is powerful enough to vanquish the Source of All Evil: it involves calling upon the magic of the entire Warren line of Witches to assist them. It works. The same spell is used to call upon the Magical Romani lineage of Ava and help her vanquish the Demon who was hunting her family. In that instance, the ancestors' spirits visibly manifest and even deflect the Eye Beams the Demon throws at her. The Warren ancestors are also called upon (via another spell) to assist with the wiccaning of the Charmed Ones' children, with Grams's spirit officiating the ceremony. In that occasion they manifest themselves and we can get a glimpse of them. When her witch boyfriend Richard starts abusing his magic, Paige organises an intervention with his family; as most of his relatives are dead due to a magical feud, she has to summon them from the afterlife. On that same occasion, the Charmed ones ask one of said spirits to remain available to help them defeat a Demon; it turns out not to be necessary, as Phoebe and Paige end up becoming ghosts themselves and can solve the problem on their own. The Charmed Ones occasionally organise actual séances to seek guidans or help from other spirts as well. This happens in Season 3, when they summon a dead Witch to learn about the Warlock that's targeting them, and in Season 4, when they summon a murder victim to convince the jury not to convict her innocent husband. That's one of the only two methods to vanquish an evil ghost – the other being the equally unpractical pouring of a potion on their bones. On occasion, the Sisters die temporarily to invoke this trope; on another occasion, an Muggle, Martha van Lewen, commits suicide specifically to become a spirit and vanquish the ghost that's been killing her male family members (she had killed the man in the first place and therefore invokes Redemption Equals Death as well). Played straighter when Grams, who's already been a spirit for a few years, vanquishes the ghostly demon, the Necromancer. There are villainous examples too: when the Triad are vanquished by the Charmed Ones, they come back as spirits to guide the Demon Dumain in stirring the Jenkins Sisters towards mutual annihilations with the Charmed Ones. |

Sailor Moon: Played with when the Senshi visit the ruins of the Moon Kingdom. In all continuities, the late Queen Serenity appears to them and provides backstory to the Moon Kingdom and the girls' past lives. However, she's not really a spirit, but an interactive holographic projection of the Moon Kingdom computer databanks. The nature of her apparition is more ambiguous later on, when she visits Usagi's subconscious to grant her new powers and give her a pep talk note That's anime-only, though; the manga has no such scene, and in the final arc it's outright stated that Queen Serenity had returned to the Galaxy Cauldron upon her death. In the 90s anime, the Inner Senshi die one by one, but their spirits appear to comfort and encourage a distraught Sailor Moon, giving her the strength to go on and face the Dark Kingdom. Later on, when Moon faces Super Beryl, their spirits appear again and lend her the strength to use the Sylver Crystal to win the battle. |
