Why not every ghost has to be scary

In many classic stories, ghosts are eerie, wandering souls — this design deliberately flips that idea and shows a ghost who just wants to be nice. This friendly look is reminiscent of well-known lovable ghost characters from cartoons and children's books. For kids, it's the perfect opportunity to explore the idea of a "ghost" without it feeling scary.
