Tropes used in Casper's Scare School include:
  • Academy of Adventure
  • Anime Hair
  • Bad Is Good and Good Is Bad: Alder and Dash take this very literally. They once punished Casper for giving a gift to one of the teachers, not because it could be considered a bribe, but because it was a nice thing to do.
  • Blindfolded Vision: Cappy. In fact, when he has his blindness taken away he loses all sense of direction.
  • Blond Guys Are Evil: Played straight with Norman [the skater], but averted with Jimmy
  • Bumbling Dad: Jimmy's dad.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Mantha
  • Expy: Jimmy is similar to Chris from Casper: A Spirited Beginning. Due to both being "experts" in the supernatural.
  • Extranormal Institute
  • Five-Man Band:
  • A Fool and His New Money Are Soon Parted: Ra in "Rich Kid Ra", however he was already rich to begin with until an archaeologist raided his family's tomb.
  • Freudian Trio:
    • Casper (Superego)
    • Mantha (Ego)
    • Ra (Id)
  • Hair of Gold: Jimmy and skater Norman's sister Bethica
  • Humanity Ensues: In one episode, Wolfie was turned into a "fleshie", or human.
  • Instant Fanclub: Ra in "The Ra-Minator", "Rich Kid Ra", and "Wiz Kid Ra".
  • Jerkass: Alder and Dash; Thatch to a lesser extent
  • Kids Are Cruel
  • Lawful Stupid: Alder and Dash
  • Lighter and Softer: The Ghostly Trio, so much that they actually care about Casper. Of course they still love to scare humans.
  • Lovable Alpha Bitches: Mickey and Monaco
  • Monster Mash
  • Muggles
  • Mythology Gag: Deedstown shares the same name as the town from Casper: A Spirited Beginning.
  • Name's the Same: Two bullies with the same name, "Norman". One has brown hair in a mullet hairstyle, and the other is a blond skater in a beanie and red hoodie.
  • Nice Guy: Casper
    • Maybe too nice for his own good.
  • Nurse with Good Intentions: The school nurse seems to be under the impression that her sadistic methods will cure her patients rather than making them worse.
  • One Steve Limit: In a possibly accidental aversion, Jimmy has had two completely different bullies in different episodes, both named Norman.
  • Only Six Faces: A lot of humans look basically the same, based on the same generic model. The monsters are mostly a Cast of Snowflakes.
  • Our Monsters Are Different: Many of the creatures that would normally be former fleshies were never fleshies. Mantha was always a zombie, Ra was always a mummy, etc. The only characters that were confirmed to be formerly human were Fly Boy and his father.
    • However, in the episode "Scare Day", after Mantha wins a scaring competition, she mentions this is the best day of her afterlife. This suggests she too was once a human, died, and then became a zombie.
  • Our Vampires Are Different: Thatch isn't harmed by sunlight and doesn't have to drink blood to survive.
  • Our Werewolves Are Different: Wolfie is perpetually a werewolf. When there's a full moon he turns into a bigger werewolf and loses all control.
  • Our Zombies Are Different: Mantha is smart and agile. The walking slowly while chanting "Braaains..." routine is just a scare tactic zombies use. And though she does eat brains, it's not all she eats.
  • Secret Keeper: Jimmy
  • She's Not My Girlfriend: In "Possessed", one of the Normans called Mantha Casper's girlfriend.

Norman: Show me how to get home, and I won't mail your girlfriend's head to China.
Casper: She's not my--
Norman: Hmm, now where can I find a box big enough?
