Ghosts are the spirits of those who have died and not yet moved on to the afterlife.

Appearance[]

Ghosts have differing appearances depending on how they died.

Those who died in circumstances such as shootings, stabbings, hangings, etc, look basically like what they did in their life, but maybe with some marks depending on how they died (such as bullet holes, ropeburn, knife wounds, etc).

Those who died in circumstances such as burning, drowning, bee stings, snake bites, etc, will appear somewhat human, but with a strange appearance depending on how they died (body made of flames, dripping water, bee stripes and wings, snake tail and hood, etc).

Whatever the case, one thing is certain; ghosts will always appear in the clothes that they died in.

Behavior[]

Ghost behavior differs from individual to individual, however, they tend to have a certain reason for not moving on, usually because they want to watch over their loved ones, or they have some unfinished business left to do.
