Ghosts have a chance of appearing if you do not properly Template:L or Template:Lize your dwarves. They haunt their best friends and follow them around on the same tile.

Types of ghosts:

  • A murderous ghost.
  • A sadistic ghost.
  • A violent ghost.
  • An angry ghost.
  • A moaning spirit returned from the dead. It will generally trouble one unfortunate at a time.
  • A howling spirit. The ceaseless noise is making sleep difficult.
  • A secretive poltergeist.
  • An energetic poltergeist.
  • A troublesome poltergeist.
  • A restless haunt, generally troubling past acquaintances and relatives.
  • A forlorn haunt, seeking out known locations or drifting around the place of death.

They cause bad thoughts and, in the case of violent or murderous ghosts, can batter or outright kill dwarves, literally scaring them to death. Special abilities of some "poltergeists" unknown.

Secretive poltergeists can "misplace" items.
