Many of us have weird sensations about seeing shadows or shapes out of the corner of our eye, only for them to disappear when we turn to look. Maybe, like most folks, you didn’t even consider that there could be different kinds of ghosts out there.

A ghoul is said to be created on the death of a man or woman who savored the taste of flesh. They not only eat the dead, but also prey on the unwary living. Likewise, a ghast is supposedly made while someone dies during the act of cannibalism.
Ghoul is a demon-like being or monstrous humanoid originating in pre-Islamic Arabian religion, associated with graveyards and consuming human flesh. Zombies are mindless, ghouls are not. Zombies feast on human flesh and brains, while ghouls eat any flesh.
A revenant is an animated corpse that is believed to have revived from death to haunt the living. The word revenant is derived from the Old French word, revenant, the "returning".
Caribbean folklore references to revenant-like beings in lore focused on "the soucouyant". A shapeshifter who appears as a reclusive old woman by day. By night, she strips off her wrinkled skin. Her true form, as a fireball she flies across the dark sky.
