Ghasts are large, floating, ghost-like monsters found in the Nether, and are the only source of ghast tears. They shoot explosive fireballs at humans, which can be hit back to hurt them significantly upon direct impact.

Ghasts attack humans with fireballs and are relatively weak. They can be summoned by the giant ghast, which calls multiple ghasts with a loud cry. Ghasts will also attack any mob that harms them. This behavior is shown when the giant ghast accidentally hits a regular ghast with a fireball, causing the entire horde to retaliate against it.

In The Order of the Stone, ghasts appeared when the others were traveling through the Order of the Stone's Nether railtrack system. Jesse killed some of them during their encounters.

On their way to Redstonia or Boom Town during Assembly Required, Jesse, Reuben, and either Oliva or Axel were attacked by a ghast. Jesse had three choices to deal with it: shooting it with a bow, dragging it down with a fishing rod, or deflecting its fireballs with a sword.

After the founder of Sky City was dropped during Order Up!, the Blaze Rods spawned monsters in the city, including ghasts.

In Jailhouse Block, ghasts inhabit the area around the Sunshine Institute. Nearby ghasts were summoned by the giant ghast during the battle against Jesse. After the giant fired stray fireballs that struck some of the ghasts, they retaliated against it, contributing to its downfall.
