Ghosts come in all shapes and sizes, from wispy, rarely visible ethereal shades to nearly-there beings capable of moving objects, and even those that don’t realize they’re no longer breathing. But whether they’re sticking around for one more chance to catch St. Nick, or simply must oversee the holiday preparations their way, their spectral presence can certainly liven up our holidays!
