Ghosts in video games

Maybe add a section about ghosts being in video/horror games for the media sections, like mentioning Boos in Mario, or The different ghost types in Phasmophobia WhoTheFluer (talk) 16:25, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

I would support this as ghosts have seen a revival in videogaming as an arts medium, especially due to games such as the mentioned Phasmophobia which also sparked other projects in return. Argacyan (talk) 23:18, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

Fiction tag

Owen250708, you added a tag to this article today indicating that it "may fail to make a clear distinction between fact and fiction." Which specific part of this article do you think fails to make a clear distinction between fact and fiction? The article appears to make clear that what is being discussed is a concept that has no scientific evidence for its existence, but which has existed in a wide variety of cultures and belief systems throughout human history. It discusses the (lack of) scientific evidence for ghosts, ghosts in the mythology of various cultures, ghosts in the mythology of various religions, the changing aspects of ghostlore in various historical eras. I do not see anywhere in the article where it asserts ghosts are "real" or fails to make clear that stories and beliefs are being discussed, rather than hard facts. I'm going to remove the template. If there is a specific section of the article that you think fails to make a clear distinction between fact and fiction, please replace the template in that section, rather than for the whole article. ~ ONUnicorn^{(Talk|Contribs)}problem solving 18:18, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

I feel strongly that the word "spooky" needs to be included in the definition of a ghost. Mattcomputer (talk) 20:09, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
