Personality
Eustace is a malicious, ill-tempered, and nasty old farmer who is married to the kind-hearted Muriel despite being her polar opposite. He is very antagonistic to Courage the Cowardly Dog throughout the series and is basically a bully who constantly calls Courage a stupid dog, mistreats him, and loves to scare him. Often, his cruelty earns him a bop on the head by Muriel (often followed by him saying, "What did I do?") and he is also regularly maimed or tortured by the many ghosts and ghouls that haunt Courage.

Eustace's behavior towards Courage seems to stem from jealousy over the attention Courage receives from Muriel and his own mother (who dislikes him intensely yet seems to be very fond of Courage). One of Eustace's favorite tricks is to wait until Courage is in relative peace before he utters his catchphrase of "Stupid dog!" and proceeding to pull out a hideous Voodoo-like mask and yelling, "Ooga booga booga!" to frighten Courage half to death.

Although almost always an antagonist Eustace has on occasion worked with Courage to try and overcome some particularly nasty villains, but these alliances are never permanent. More often than not Eustace is a most unhelpful, and even devious individual.

As well as his bullying, Eustace has long been established as a very greedy individual who has brought disaster upon himself and others in his stubborn pursuit of riches (that he often doesn't deserve). One of the more famous examples of this was Eustace's refusal to give up King Ramses' slab after Eustace finds out it's potentially worth a fortune; despite that Ramses continually demands they return the slab between unleashing horrible plagues in warning.
