The other day I was trying to remember a game from my childhood. Im pretty sure it was for the Genesis. It was based after the movie poltergeist. You played as this green poltergeist guy and the mission was to scare this family out of the house. You could jump into different objects around the rooms and possess them to scare the family. After a family member left the house you were rewarded with green goo, which would give you life. After the entire family was spooked from the house, they would move to a larger house where you would then scare them out of again.

Does anyone remember the name of this game and the platform that it was on?

thanks

I am 90% sure it was called poltergeist and I am pretty sure it was for the genesis 32

No. . . There was I know this. . . I know this. . . Hold on.

After some searching through some roms your answer is Haunting Starring Polterguy
