Before it was discovered what the two-dimensional lifeforms really were, Commander William T. Riker referred to them as ghosts and said he didn't want to be tailed by them all the way to T'lli Beta. (TNG: "The Loss")
Some lifeforms are so alien, they can appear ghost-like. Anaphasic lifeforms are long-lived entities that can only appear corporeal when attached to a particular object, or a person with an unusual biochemistry. The females of the Crusher family were host to an anaphasic lifeform for centuries. (TNG: "Sub Rosa")
- See also: Non-corporeal species
Many species believe that part of a person lives on after death; examples include the Bajoran Pagh or the Ocampa Comra. These beliefs are often found in religion.
The term "ghost" can also mean a false image or shadow of an image, as in a sensor ghost. (DS9: "Soldiers of the Empire")
