“There is something haunting in the light of the moon; it has all the dispassionateness of a disembodied soul, and something of its inconceivable mystery”
Joseph Conrad
“Then away out in the woods I heard that kind of a sound that a ghost makes when it wants to tell about something that's on its mind and can't make itself understood, and so can't rest easy in its grave, and has to go about that way every night grieving.”
Mark Twain
“So, so, break off this last lamenting kiss, / Which sucks two souls, and vapours both away,/ Turn thou ghost that way, and let me turn this, / And let our selves benight our happiest day.”
John Donne
“There are people who really believe in and fear of ghost. Some of them even are too afraid that cause their minds and senses are no longer function properly to be able to distinguish whether something is ghost or else.”
Toba Beta
“It's Halloween! It's Halloween! The moon is full and bright And we shall see what can't be seen On any other night. Skeletons and ghosts and ghouls, Grinning goblins fighting duels, Werewolves rising from their tombs, Witches on their magic brooms. In masks and gown we haunt the street And knock on doors for trick or treat. Tonight we are the king and queen, For oh tonight it's Halloween!”

“We might stop with 'Ghost.' We could easily put out another video -- we've talked about a whole bunch of possible songs to make videos for -- but we want to focus on doing some touring, and making a new record as soon as possible, ... So maybe we don't need to make another video. But I've always wanted to do a video for 'You Know What They Do to Guys Like Us in Prison,' so, really, who knows?”
Gerard Way
“Upon the clothes behind the tenement, That hang like ghosts suspended from the lines, Linking each flat, but to each indifferent, Incongruous and strange the moonlight shines”
Claude McKay
