Ghost seeker

Even after entombing, some dwarfs just dont seem to get the hint that they are dead.

Cue military ghosts.
Now this wouldnt be a problem as I can just engrave a memorial slab, but this particular haunt (of a ghostly speardwarf) doesnt appear on the engraving list. There arent even nameless "engrave memorial" selections like with merchant escorts and such.


Could it be that he was a vampire and so, his real name doesnt appear? Do vampires even get ghosts?
I can even engrave goblins apparently, just not this guy, which worries me mas he is eyeing my trade depot.
Incidentally, do ghosts appear only in the deceased/missing unit screen?
Anyway Im at a loss.

Ghosts are still a little buggy. I recommend using dfhack to get rid of them for now.

Well, thats a damn shame. Ive set up a wing of my cementery just for the purpose of placing memorial slabs.

I hope Toady fixes ghosts up a bit more, maybe right when hes getting into night creature furniture. A Vampire Mansion made of obsidian with night creature furniture all tucked in the center of my fort is one of my many aspirations.
