What Goblins Argue About When They Argue About ghost

Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified ghost as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'

ghost resonates at a frequency that goblins can hear but humans cannot. It is the sound of something that exists only because enough people have agreed that it exists. Goblins call this 'the consensus hum.' Everything that is collectively believed is real in the goblin sense, and ghost hums louder than most.
