Ghost Haunting Reasons (d100)
From the original source's blog post...
Why is this dead person so angry? Whats their beef? Did their own actions lead to this or are they a victim? Some undead can be released others are too bitter or black deeds too great. Ghosts may lie too to trick living, even to possibly joining them.
Was subsequently shared to r/d100.
