    I don't really have a favourite ghost. In fact I don't think I can even think of one. And I already subscribe to your blog...does that count?

    My favorite ghost is definitely the late, great Patrick Swayze in 'Ghost'.

    I'm already a follower. :)

    You don't have to enter me for this book since I already own it, but I just wanted to say the ghosts in Harry Potter are lovely. :D

    Lovely giveaway Vivienne... you didn't say your favourite ghostie ;)

    My favourite ghost in a film would have to be the Liam Neeson ghost in High Spirits *g* Phwoooargh! Or the Alan Rickman one in Truly Madly Deeply. Double Phwooooaaaar!

    My favourite ghost in a novel would probably be... Christine. Does she count?

    What a great giveaway, I'd like to enter this. :)

    My favourite ghost in a film would be the poltergeists in Poltergeist (is that too obvious? :P) - so scary! - or Patrick Swayze in Ghost (another obvious answer hehe).

    As for TV, I love Annie from Being Human. She's so great. :-D

    I'm already a follower too. :)

    Easy cheesy lemon squeezy? Well, I follow you through Google Reader (duh), but I can't think of a ghost. Crap! Hmmm....goes to search bookshelves...um....does the woman in white count from Woman in White? Oh! Headless Nick from Harry Potter! That's his name, right? :)

    Everyone else has such good answers. I would have never thought of Patrick Swayze in Ghost. Or even Casper. No, when I thought about the question originally, I thought of this really old television programme called 'Ghost Writer' where a bunch of kids solved mysteries with the help of this ghost.. Anyway.

    Your question is so interesting considering the recent death of Patreick Swayze. He is a favorite ghost of mine but I also got a kick out of Beetlejuice!

    The Girl Who Stopped Swimming is on my TBR list. This is a wonderful giveaway! Thank you!

    I'm and have been a follower!

    Thank you for the easy peasy contest.

    Maybe I'm feeling a little nostalgic after what happened to Patrick Swayze but I am voting for him in 'Ghost'.

    I'm now a follower.

    Fav Ghost? It would be very difficult to mention one from books, but I love the Ghost in Casper :)

    Also the movie Ring? Scary.

    I'm already a follower (google reader).

    thanks so much for the giveaway.
