Description

In folklore, a ghost is the soul or spirit of a dead person or non-human animal that is believed to be able to appear to the living. In ghostlore, descriptions of ghosts vary widely, from an invisible presence to translucent or barely visible wispy shapes to realistic, lifelike forms. The deliberate attempt to contact the spirit of a deceased person is known as necromancy, or in spiritism as a séance. Other terms associated with it are apparition, haunt, haint, phantom, poltergeist, shade, specter, spirit, spook, wraith, demon, and ghoul.

समजानुसार, भूत म्हणजे मृत व्यक्तीचा अतृप्त आत्मा. हा कोणतेही रूप धारण करू शकतो, मनोवेगाने हालचाल करू शकतो व अतृप्त इच्छा पूर्ण झाल्यावर मुक्ति पावतो, असा समज आहे.
