Ghosts and Spirits

Ghosts are spiritual beings who were once living people and who for some reason remain trapped in the material world or even are there because they can. They are not transparent and depending on how deeply embedded they are in the earth, they can collide with objects such as living people but they can also float and pass through objects if they want. **Ghosts** and **Spirits** are the same thing but in different states, while **spirits** are the deceased who passed to the afterlife and live in another dimension outside the material plane, **ghosts** are those who still inhabit the earth and still have archetypes similar to humans, they may feel cold, hot and pleasure, but they are unable to feel hunger, pain, tiredness, and do not need to go to the bathroom.

Ghosts can be good or bad, the personality and character of the deceased does not change after death, although ghosts are able to learn, evolve and change at this stage, as in the case of Beverly Bernstein who had many vices and was an extremely irresponsible and negligent towards her children, but when she was dead she could reflect on herself and give more value to what she had, so when resurrected by Lizette, Beverly became a better person and a better mother without vices. And in the same way, ghosts may not change and remain malevolent as is the case of Margo Barnes who when she died she continued to be a devotee of Satan and began to harass families and was attracted to children who were disobedient, so she haunted and disturbed. Beverly was a ghost and Margo a spirit, therefore, Margo was invisible and could manipulate the material world in the form of energy, making the environment heavier and people more tense, affecting their emotionality, while Beverly was just a dead person who walked and could manipulate the environment physically like a living person.

## Stuck in earth

In many traditional accounts, ghosts are often seen as dead people seeking revenge, or imprisoned on Earth by some magical matter or pendency they still have. There are several reports of the appearance of "ladies in white" in rural areas, who supposedly died tragically or suffered some kind of trauma during their lives. Legends of "ladies in white" are recurrent in many cultures, and a common denominator is the theme of the loss or betrayal of a husband or fiancé.

A ghost can be trapped in a specific place like a house, a hospital or any other place, if there has been great tragedies or bad energy accumulated, it can even be trapped by magic, as is the case with the ghosts of Moonlight Falls who were arrested in a residence. Some ghosts can only pass to the next life if they have overcome the problems that keep them on Earth, instead they would remain on Earth as a ghost or spirit.

## Powers

* **Invisibilty:** Although they have no physical mass, ghosts can consciously choose to manifest in a corporeal form to interact with human, as well as an incorporeal form during which no human can perceive or touch them. Despite this, mediums can see and communicate with them. Not all spirits and ghosts manage to stay visible, the vast majority remain invisible and unable to touch objects and people, but the more powerful or more Earth-bound ghosts can choose whether or not to be visible.

* **Transmutation:** Ghosts have no physical limitations and can move from one location to another instantly.

* **Shape shifting:** A spirit can change his physical appearance at will, however it is a technique that requires a lot of training, more experienced and more powerful spirits can freely do this according to their own will.

* **Immunity to magic:** They are not affected by the basic powers of sorcerers such as telekinesis, pyrokinesis and electrokinesis, however they are not immune to banishing spells, they are also affected by more powerful binding spells, however for a spell to trap a spirit in some place, it must be done with the person still alive, so after death they would remain in place, spirits that were already dead cannot be affected.

* **Possession:** Stronger spirits can enter an object by making it move, and even stronger spirits can possess people temporarily. Ghosts break objects or even repair them. Some spirits enter another person's body for energy.
