Ghost Characters

Ghost Players or Ghost Characters appear whenever a player dies in Don't Starve Together. They can fly around and haunt objects. Examples of haunting objects are setting stuff on fire, moving items around, turning Trees into Treeguards, and turning Flowers into Evil Flowers WHERE DID MY EDIT ABOUT THE HOUNDS GO?. Ghost Players may resurrect themselves via Touch Stones, Meat Effigies, Life Giving Amulets or Telltale Hearts. They also emit a tiny bit of light.

In Survival Mode, if any players have died and become ghosts, a ghost icon will appear by all other players' sanity meter and their sanity will decrease by 5 points per minute for every ghost. This makes resurrecting fallen players a higher priority. When all players are dead and have become ghosts, the game will end and a new world will be generated.

In Wilderness Mode, the player respawns at a random location in the map, so ghosts dont appear in this mode.

In Endless Mode, the game will go on even when every player has become a ghost.

Trivia

 * WX-78 and Woodie's ghosts were made to resemble R2-D2 and Chewbacca from the Star Wars films.
 * Wendy's ghost is an almost exact horizontally flipped copy of Abigail. The only difference is the color of the flower, which is yellow, despite Abigail's Flower being red in life.
