The pyrogeist If there is something known about the pyrogeist, then it is that it is closely related to the poltergeist. Both represent flying orbs and are greatly feared. The pyrogeist, unlike the poltergeist, is able to summon rays of fire, which are similar to the "burner" anomaly. Also, it should be noted that this living ball of fire does not show his actual body upon death, like a normal poltergeist would. Instead, it explodes into pieces. This is theorized to be the result of the differences in pressure between the poltergeist's body and the surrounding air, since the poltergeist instantly cools down when killed.
