I posted this question in another "ghostly" thread but I need answers! To that end I'm turning to the OG experts for help. My question is this: Why do ghosts generally appear clothed in pictures? I get that the spirit energy or whatever might remain after death, but clothes? WTF? Why wouldn't every ghost be as naked as the day they were born? The clothes thing just doesn't add up for me. Can someone please explain?

Quantum Theory of Ghosts - A ghost is, put simply, an impression upon the subatomic weave of the universe, created via strong emotion of a sentient observer.
This means, in other words, that ghosts are not the disembodied personalities of the dead, and, in fact, they can be “spirits” of the living! To understand this phenomena, one must first grasp one of the most fundamental principles of quantum mechanics: observation changes the subject being observed. The simple act of observing or measuring a particle forces it into an energy state. Unobserved, a particle may take any energy state available to it, but when a sentient observer is introduced, the particle becomes locked.
Formation of a Quantum ImpressionGhosts are created when the observer’s emotions create a semi-permanent “indentation” into the quantum tapestry of the universe.
Like the scent of burned toast that remains long after the offending bread is discarded, ghosts are impressions of emotions that remain long after the cause has been resolved. Ghosts, therefore, are formed not from the dead, but from the living and their interactions with the world around them.
The recording of events within the subatomic weave gives rise to an afterimage, and depending on the intensity of the emotion and the permeability of the quantum state, different “types” of ghosts can be created.
Assuming ghosts are real. We'll also assume that when they die that their spirit/whatever is so associated with a certain place that they're "stuck there" so, by that rationale it's safe to assume that you're associated with a location as much as the clothes you were in while you died/were there.
Like my ghost would probably be in business casual in this fucking cube if I died. I guess. But you know what they say when you assume.

LOL @ Business Casual ghost attire!

Ok, I can accept that. Thanks. Essentially then there's no such thing a ghosts in classic sense of the word. Correct? That is to say, an entity that can interact with the "real world"?

Its a theory that I think has some value. Afterimage of residual energy impression from event imprinted on universe is created by observer, hence the clothes.
