No he wasn't, he was actually the stranger (Clint Eastwood). That's why he had that dream, when he was getting whipped and in the ending that short guy said "I never knew your name" and the stranger answered "Yes you do." and while he was riding away the camera focused on the grave which said "Jim Duncan, Rest in Peace"

Was the stranger in high plains drifter a ghost?

It was the dead Marshalls Brother!2nd answer on 11/22/09While it has been speculated that the stranger is Marshall Duncan's brother the movie makes it pretty plain that it is Duncan's ghost.In the intro it shows the stranger materialising out of nowhere and then as he rides off he disappears. The dialog that the stranger has with Sarah Belding after they sleep together insinuates that she knows or suspects that he is Jim Duncan returning to avenge his death and teach the town a lesson. Out of all the town's people that the stranger humiliates it is only Sarah that he doesn't do this to...the reason being she was the only one who protested and tried to stop Marshall Duncan's murder. Her actions with the stranger are her own and she is not forced or humiliated in any way. When she tell's the stranger that Jim Duncan is lying out there in an unmarked grave, the stranger's look towards the grave yard means he knows that he will never rest until his grave is properly marked.The clincher is at the end when Mordecai is finally marking Duncan's head stone and he asks for the stranger's name to which the stranger tells him that he already knows it...implying that Mordecai has already met him or the two are already acquainted from the past.If the stranger was Duncan's brother he wouldn't appear and disappear into thin air as he rides on the plains, he wouldn't have any idea as to Sarah's actions during the Marshall's murder, and he wouldn't tell Mordecai that they already know one another.

What is the connection between pale rider and high plains drifter?

In high plains drifter Clint plays an ex law man in who returns to the town which failed to help him when he was attacked by the same criminals who again are terrorising them. He seeks his revenge on the outlaws and the the town at the same time by playing on their cowardice and making ludicrous demands for his help in dealing with the criminals. Later in the film it develops/ strongly suggests that he is dead, especially when in the closing shot he disappears on the horizon. Leading you to believe he is a vengeful ghost after those who wronged him. Pale rider sees a similarly themed character in that he appears from nowhere to help a group of honest prospectors from the terrorising of a rich industrialist. The character, under the guise of a nameless preacher, rides a white horse like the biblical apocalyptic death bringer, habitually vanishes in a blink of an eye and reappears and displays great physical strength beyond human capability to display the power of faith when confronted by an unbeatable giant of a henchman. The biggest clue is the fact that a corrupt sheriff and his deputies, (hired by the industrialist to deal with Clint after all other attempts have failed), claim to have experienced a similar character before when his description is given. But they dismiss the preacher as the same as they killed him. This with the bullet scaring on the preachers back and the angry recognition by the Marshall when he finally gets to see the preachers face as he is killed denote that the character preacher is supernatural. Again as with high plains drifter he simply disappears at the end. All of this is compounded by interview evidence given by Clint eastwood.


What good Pokemon that could beat the elite four in Pokemon black version 2?

A good pokemon to catch would be sandile (and turn it into krookodile) because he is strong against Chantel (ghost type user) and Caitlyn (phsycic type user) then I would probably get a Conkeldurr/Gurdurr (gurdurr evolves into Conkeldurr when traded) because he is strong against the Dark type user (forgot his name) finally, just get alot of pokemon for backup against marshal (use Dig which Krookodile can learn to make his Mienshao fall when using jump kick and make her HP go down) and after that, it should be easy. Scraggy is a good pokemon for the game in general. Here are all of the Elite 4's weaknesses: Chantel: Dark and Ghost Dark guy: Fighting Caitlyn: Ghost and Dark Marshal: Flying and Pshycic


What is super effective against ghost?
