ghost 👻 - OzVoca Emoji Details
ghost
This is a cute ghost-shaped emoji, often used on Halloween. You can also send it to surprise someone or play a prank.
It has a strong feeling of a playful ghost rather than a scary one. So, instead of a horror context, it's used to suddenly appear in a conversation like "Ta-da!" or when making a silly joke.
Recently, it has gained a new meaning with the new term "ghosting." It can be used to describe a situation where a partner or friend suddenly cuts off contact and disappears like a ghost.
Influenced by friendly ghost characters like "Casper" from the West, it's more often used with a cute and silly image rather than as an object of fear. It's a charming emoji that can create a humorous atmosphere when sent after being quiet in a chat, to suddenly offer an opinion, or to tease someone.
