In response to BoBaFeTT regarding Peeves...

     Is it possible that Peeves doesn't have much of a connection 
with Filch at all? Filch doesn't like troublemakers, and well, Peeves 
is the ultimate troublemaker.  Can that be the extent of their 
relationship?  
     Since the only one Peeves is truly afraid of is the Bloody 
Baron, I have an idea that they might have some connection or 
another - whether it be in why Peeves is a poltergeist/ghost I don't 
know.  Although I do know that JKR rarely puts anything (now matter 
how minor) in the book(s) for no good reason, I'm not sure if Peeves 
will eventually play a larger role. One reason I think that is (and I 
know we're not supposed to mention the movie here but it strengthens 
my idea), but the character of Peeves was not put into the movies 
thus far.  Is he really just an extra? (Is there really such a thing 
as an extra in HP? lol)  I'm not really sure, but it's a thought!

in book 1 at the bottom of page 115 of the american hard back version 
it states and i quote "My dear friar, haven't we given Peeves all the 
chances he deserves? He gives us all a bad name and you know, he's 
not really even a ghost"

Peeves isnt a ghost
so what is he?
A poltergeist
 
isn't a poltergeist a ghost that wants its body back or something 
like that?

regardless my thoughts about it are why is it Filch is the only one 
he listens too? The books say he will barely listen to dumbledore.

Whats his tie to filch and why is he here
 
what will his role be later on?
