3 or 4 versions at least of Canterville ghost and more of A Christmas Carol, a polergeist isn't really a ghost--something else, I've seen 6th Sense,
Hamlet, The Haunting (fantastic film), The Others, AMatter of Life andf Death (aka; Staieway to Heaven), 13 Ghosts,Topper, And Rashoman. Flying Dutchman? I
know the story--never knew there was a fillm by that name.
There is; The Uninvited, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, Strangler of the Swamp (?), Ghost, and Ghost Whisperer (TV). Just to name a few myself.

Abbott & Costello's TIME OF THEIR LIVES
The Christmassy film BEYOND TOMORROW (1940), but they might be more "spirits." Was the GHOST IN THE INVISIBLE BIKINI really a ghost? Can't forget GHOSTBUSTERS

Pandora and the Flying Dutchman starring James Mason.
More ghost stories: Dream Lovers (1986) Hong Kong film with Chow Yun Fat Woman in Black Don't Look Now Lady in White I always thought a poltergeist was a type of ghost. Doesn't "geist" mean ghost? |

"a polergeist isn't really a ghost"
??? "polter geist" = "noisy ghost" |

Wich2 is correct in his definition of poltergeist.
From Wikipedia: "Poltergeist (from German poltern, meaning to rumble or make noise, and Geist, meaning "ghost" or "spirit") denotes an invisible spirit or ghost that manifests itself by moving and influencing objects, generally in a particular location such as a house or room or place within a house. "
"I live the unknown, I love the unknown... I AM the unknown."
