Movies, book, culture, and religion. Do they have it right?

We all know what a ghost is. Or a supernatural force, a demon, heaven, hell, the ghost plain, etc. Or do we?
Does anyone ever think what if things are completely NOT what we think? Wonder if we have everything completely and utterly wrong... like... not even in the ballpark. What if all these things really ARE 100% real but also 100% nothing like we can imagine or understand? Thoughts?

No, I don’t know what any of those things are because there is zero evidence.
Define in detail what a ghost is and how this is known. Without any anecdotal claim.

Ghosts are popular with literature, when the author needs an excuse to push the plot along. For example: Shakespeare is regarded as a great writer. He uses ghosts a lot.

@BlueSkyKing I think you are missing the entire point of this post. My question isn't real or not. This isn't a question of evidence. My question was IF they were real do you think they would be the stereotype? Or would they be different?
