ghost hype

Hype generated for a product, typically movies and television shows, in which people convince themselves that something will appear in this aforementioned product for little to no reason. Often times the evidence to warrant this hype is unfounded, and other times they are practically nonexistent. Some things that generate ghost hype are fan theories, rumors, photoshops ext. in most cases of ghost hype, the thing they got exited for are not present in the final product. Which results in the product being bombarded with negative reviews, but they will never admit they have fell victim to ghost hype and will instead site other reasons for the product for being bad.
Ghost hype victim: “I’m so excited for Tobey Maguire Spider-Man to team up with Hugh Jackman‘s wolverine!”

Normal person: “I’m pretty sure that not happening. Be careful you aren’t falling victim to ghost hype bro.”

Ghost hype victim: “no dude! It’s gotta happen!”
