Ghosts should appear for dead pets too, that would fit well because you can also bury pets in coffins. Do they?
I hope not, because I never bury pets.

If they do appear, we need to weaponise ghost kittens.

It sits at the foot of your bed, mewling pitifully.

The room goes cold, frost forming on the stone walls.

Your candle flickers, you pull the blanket tighter around you.

The ghost kittens have arrived.

Ast the tanner/butcher;
All the kittens you ever murdered for their supple skins have returned!
They keep you awake at night with their ghostly scratching at your bedroom door, they posses and animate your kitten leather gloves making them chase mice and your kitten tallow candles burn fitfully with a accusational mewling.

What the kitten skull totems are doing in the locked chest is too horrible to even considder.

I suddently have in mind the image of a jaded butcher using a possessed totem to pleasure herself.
That image is disturbing.

I hope cat ghosts don't exist, I accidentally dropped a bridge on one, and though it was a named pet, I can't engrave a slab for it.  Nothing shows up to engrave, even though I have a slab ready.

Types of ghosts:
A murderous ghost.
A sadistic ghost.
A violent ghost.
An angry ghost.
A moaning spirit returned from the dead. It will generally trouble one unfortunate at a time.
A howling spirit. The ceaseless noise is making sleep difficult.
A secretive poltergeist.
An energetic poltergeist.
A troublesome poltergeist.
A restless haunt, generally troubling past acquaintances and relatives.
A forlorn haunt, seeking out known locations or drifting around the place of death.
They cause bad thoughts and, in the case of murderous ghosts, can outright kill dwarves, literally scaring them to death. Special abilities of some "poltergeists" unknown.
Secretive poltergeists can "misplace" items.

Sadistic ghost? What does it do, rape dwarves in their sleep?

And probably with the kitten totem?

I wonder if these are based on personalities and relationships? For instance, the angry ghost coming from an angry dwarf, or the moaning spirit targetting dwarves it has a grudge against.

I wonder if silver weapons will have any special effect on werewolves and other horrifying guests.
As in: will attacking a geist be possible with them?

Does using a slab/memorial for a freshly dead, body-intact dwarf prevent bad thoughts if you don't put the body in a coffin? Specifically, the "was forced to endure the decay of a *" thought?

"Likes Griffons for their strength"

Never seen that one before, and now that I look through the custom Refuse options I see Griffon, Centaur, and Chimera. A portent of things to come?
