Ghosts continue working
I had a legendary cook, who basically spent all his life masterfully cooking 24/7. He was killed by a berserking dwarf when my fortres was going down in a tantrum spiral, and when he came back as a ghost, he went to the kitchen and continued to Prepare Easy Meal that was set on repeat until I abandoned my fort. Don't know if that's a bug though, but the food was good. -Koter 25 January 2013 (UTC)

they open doors.
apparently ghosts open doors and hatches. Should the article say something about this? -Zazq 07:09, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
- Are you certain that they open hatches? I've only seen them open doors, and that's by being in the same place as the door-- there's no need for them to displace a hatch open a way they do doors. -Vasiln 19:14, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
The ghostly peasant has come
Just had this message appear in the same manner as a megabeast or werecreature appearing at my fort.
- The ghostly peasant Kadol Itebushil has come! A short, sturdy creature fond of drink and industry
He doesn't have the description of an angry ghost, and he doesn't appear to be doing anything worse than the other ghosts I have in my fort. -- Qazmlpok 12:34, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
