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.

ਭੂਤ ਦਾ ਸਭ ਤੋਂ ਆਮ ਮਤਲਬ ਕਿਸੇ ਪ੍ਰਾਣੀ ਆਪਣੀ ਮ੍ਰਿਤੂ ਤੋਂ ਬਾਅਦ ਆਪਣੇ ਜਿਸਮਾਨੀ ਵਜੂਦ ਤੋਂ ਬਾਹਰ ਜਾਹਰ ਹੋਣ ਦੀ ਸੂਰਤ ਤੋਂ ਲਿਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ।
