KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。

If he is a ghost, then it's very disappointing for me, because he is banished in the story, and that could mean that he won't be coming back, and that would be terrible, wouldn't it?

A ghost is someone who hasn't made it - in other words, who died, and they don't know they're dead. So they keep walking around and thinking that you're inhabiting their - let's say, their domain. So they're aggravated with you.
鬼魂是那些还没活过来的人，换句话说，他们死了，却不知道自己已经死了。所以他们不停地走来走去，认为你住在他们的——比方说，他们的地盘上。所以他们对你很恼火。
