Then we should remove alts. Imo there is no fear of death or commiting crimes if you can permaspawn crime alts as easily as pissing in a bucket (and yes I do have crime alts and they are easy to make). Ghosts wouldn't remove the fear of death it would just give you a bit more time to roam Salem before you need to create a new character. With what I proposed you would leave scents wherever you go and eventually (in a matter of days, weeks, or perhaps a few months if you are lucky and live in a remote location) your ghost will get exorcised.

Sounds retarded all around.

Alts have nothing to do with this. Do the crime and someone will eventually come kill the time you invested into the alts. You can scream LOL JUST A FARMING ALT all you want but in the end a kill is a kill.

I think my first post on the Salem forums (a different account) was something similar. Instead of ghosts tho, it was vampires. Murdered High Bile characters would have a low chance of coming back as a vampire. New Enlgand had a number of vampire panics usually during outbreaks of diseases. Someone invetably would get dug up and their heart burned and ate or some such craziness. Disease is a scary thing.

In any case, like the ghost idea, it takes something away from the game play, death stings a little less. I think more importantly it takes something away from the uniqueness of witches. The game starts to take on a certain profuse supernatural horror feel, which is cool, but a not reigned in enough.

At least one person here can emit critics without sounding retarded and insulting others. Thanks pistolshrimp.

Maybe one day we can have less retarded ideas and I&I will be perfect. Thanks OP for setting us back.
