Ghost with no tombstone/urn?

Ghosts still show up in the game even with no tombstones.  If you are playing on a lot with the Spooky lot trait, that actually attracts ghosts and they will visit often.  If you don't have any in the game, the game will make one for this.  There is also ghost night at the bars where the game will use ghosts from sims who died but are still in the game or will make them so you get ghosts coming to the bar..  And every now and then, I get ghosts of dead NPCs and playables that just show up at a venue.  Not often but it does happen.  I have even had a ghost stall vendor before.

Tombstones or urns on the lot where one of your playable sims died will also give you ghosts.  They will show up now and then depending on whether you used the option to strengthen their bond to the world they may only stick around for a short time or a longer time.  If you release them to the netherworld, they are gone for good though.  What option you use is up to you.  

You can also befriend and ask or invite a ghost to join the household so then they will be playable.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. I have never seen a ghost without a tombstone/urn in my 3 years of playing the game. I never have a spooky lot trait mainly because I don't want the ghosts. They are a huge nuisance. I always release the sprit into the netherworld as soon as a Sim dies. The ghosts in Sims 4 are just ridiculous. With that being said, I hope the ghost with no tombstone isn't a regular thing because if so I'll have to find a new way to play the game.
