portrayed by Peter Fonda. This version primarily appears in a human form, with glimpses of his true goat-like demonic form appearing throughout the film, and employs a Ghost Rider as a bounty hunter. Prior to the film's events, he turned Carter Slade into his Ghost Rider in the 1800s to retrieve the Contract of San Venganza, but Slade betrayed Mephistopheles. In 1986, Johnny Blaze makes a deal with Mephistopheles to save the former's father from cancer in return for serving the devil at a future date, only for Blaze's father to die in an accident the next day. In the present, Mephistopheles transforms Blaze into his latest Ghost Rider to hunt down his traitorous son Blackheart before the demon can find the contract. After receiving help from Slade, Blaze defeats Blackheart and defies Mephistopheles by keeping his Ghost Rider powers instead of returning them, despite being offered by Mephistopheles to have them removed. Mephistopheles, as the devil, appears in Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance. He takes the form of a man named Roarke (portrayed by Ciarán Hinds) and fathers a son with a woman named Nadya after saving her life. Employing Nadya's mercenary ex-boyfriend Ray Carrigan, Roarke intends to use the boy, Danny, as his host and gain full access to his powers on Earth instead of relying on bodies that rapidly decay. However, Blaze defeats Carrigan and protects the boy, who in turn boosts Blaze's powers so he can send the devil back to Hell. Video games Mephisto appears as a boss in Silver Surfer (1990).
