A place inhabited by an unhappy ghost is considered haunted (often castles or houses). Haunted places are associated with a strong emotion or injustice of the past such as terror, remorse, or a violent death. Manifestations of haunted places include images of the dead, moved belongings, moving lights, and disembodied sounds (laughter, cries, screams, talking, moans, footsteps, or even rattling chains). |
