chosen.content: Ghosts may be able to walk through walls and glide down stairs, but their mass would still allow them to fall through a floor if they were simply pushed from the other side. Since they have a physical form, their weight must still be taken into account. This could also explain why they often leave visible trails behind as they pass through objects and move through walls.

rejected.content: Ghosts are believed to be composed of an etherealsubstance, making them lighter than solid material. Therefore, they may be able to walk through walls, but not through solid flooring, since the flooring would provide too much resistance. Also, they may be able to slide down stairs because they lack any solid mass. In either case, the ghosts would remain just out of reach of the person on the floor, giving an other-worldly feeling without actually appearing or making a physical presence.
