We have to check if it's tequila
Drowned in a bath of baked beans. Went to Hell. Hated it. Came back. Went to Twitter, but the humans turned it into X. Hated it, came here. Current location: the loft. Or behind the settee.

Ghost camp is a blast though. We never sleep
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes, I'm working here! My tasks include making sure the lockers don't charge, blocking the car parks and stealing all the toilet paper. Might drive a buggy at high speed through a crowd later

Our favourite sort of terror

Also the smoke makes us go visible
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
If you don't breathe it's very difficult to smoke

This would work for bottles of tequila or chocolate digestives

Indeed we can. Just ask my great and rather sexy friend, Martin (formerly Mary) King of Scots.

Most ghosts are either annoying teetotalers or high-functioning alcoholics. There is no middle ground.

How do ghosts eat apples? Ghosts do not eat apples. That wasn't a joke. We just don't need vitamins

Hehe the Human Man is complaining his boots are too tight but actually I spent yesterday prepping and identical *but slightly smaller* pair of boots, complete with scuffs and mud. Humans think haunting is easy but I work damn hard at this!
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social)
Stoked for this. Hope the humans got a ticket too cos I need a lift. #nineinchnails @nine

You should try being a ghost. It's this ^^^ but for all eternity

Ghosts can't float past an espresso machine without hacking all over it. It's just a thing.

Fun Fact: there are no Nazi ghosts. There are a few spirits around who were Nazis when they were human, but after death the other ghosts kicked that shit out of them.

That's kinda fun

Checked my notes and there's nothing we can do to you that comes close to what humans do to each other.

You humans are always sooo scared of ghosts but the real monsters are you.

When you become a ghost you realise every human is an asshole
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
Hate it when I'm sat on a train and a human comes on and sits right on me like they didn't even see me, which of course they didn't, and then they complain that their seat is 'ice cold'. Rude
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
If you sit and pop it spookily in the loft at night, it really annoys the humans trying to sleep down below.

A lazy Sunday at the cemetery. There wasn't a lot of haunting to do in the snow so we gathered in the cafeteria and haunted choc-ices.
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
I would also haunt the crap out of this.

Generally ghosts are very good at languages. We have Duolingo and a lot of spare time. Duchamp was probably trolling you, or drunk

At this time of year, spare a thought for the ghosts who are floating around abandoned houses with no Humans to haunt. The lucky bastards. My Humans are running me ragged. 'Do Christmas Yet to Come again!' Etc

Opinion is divided on whether it's necessary for a ghost to go to the toilet to poop. My Humans say it is, I say it isn't. In other news, I am in disgrace and have been sent to the shed.
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
That's what I said. Apparently the humans in the cafeteria complained their 'burgers' tasted burnt
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
I already have a nice easy job working the cemetery across the road. A little light haunting, some tidying, working the kitchens at the café and occasionally working the ovens at the crematorium. Once got those last 2 confused and was in massive trouble
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
Every single one is haunted
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social)
The chances of my Humans being stabbed by a ghost are low, but never zero. They should bear that in mind.

Wish I wrote that on the mirror
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social)
Got terrible diarrhoea. Sprayed the Human's toilet, sink, shower, floor, walls and quite a bit of the ceiling with fizzy gravy. To relieve the tension I wrote in slimy poop on the bathroom mirror: 'Sorry I thought it was just a fart'.

I'm not obsessed with ghosts, I am a real ghost. Mostly obsessed with playing xylophone spookily in the loft. But I will make time to see this human programme

Fell into the smoothie maker and now there's 500 tiny Betsys floating round the house. Back when I've gathered myself up.

Bring snacks
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social)
Ghost Hunters... your chances of seeing a ghost increase massively if you bring snacks. No onion ring though.
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
Ghosts and cats are very similar. If you want us to interact, bring snacks.

This is ironic cos Twitter was started by ghosts as a way to swap haunting ideas. Then we let the humans in and they ruined it.

Blimey it's windy. The Green Lady of Dunnottar Castle went out for a midnight haunt and now Wipers Tommy has to pick her up from Denmark or something

Dunno how to break it to you humans, but you smell weird. Kinda meaty. It's very off-putting.
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social) reply parent
Being a human must be a bit like being a slug. Having a vague idea that nature has played a cruel trick on them but lacking the brains to figure out what it was.

The Christmas tree has somehow found its way back into the garden. It's quite the mystery

The Humans say that 1) the cat can't write and 2) it died in 2023. #fmal
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social)
Humans want to know who is poltergeisting the Christmas tree. Wrote 'it was me, signed The Cat' on the wall in blood. Not sure they're convinced.
Betsy the Ghost (@betsytheghost.bsky.social)
Every year. The humans put up a tree in the living room. Every morning they find it has floated mysteriously into the garden overnight. Whyyyyy they never learn?
