From Guild Wars Wiki
Ghosts are the souls of formerly living creatures. They are easily recognized by their translucent appearance and their usually greenish
skins.
There are exceptions, but most of them are non-fleshy, leave invisible non-exploitable corpses and take double damage from Holy damage sources.
Almost every single NPC with a translucent and greenish appearance is a ghost, although not many of them are hostile to the players. Examples of allied ghosts are the Ghostly Hero, the Tormented Souls or the Eternals.
Although spirits have also translucent and greenish skins, they are different families and should not be confused with ghosts.
