sorry, i meant 'supernatural' rather than vaguely sciency
in the same league as poltergeists, possession by evil spirits and all that guff - rather than actual ghosts

Ghosts more than Science Fiction.
See Fulci films for best examples of Ghostly ones.
They're kind of Mummies too I think.

but if they are plague victims, how can the dead re-animate?
the dessicated flesh and bones of a corpse can't re-animate purely because of some virus

its a supervirus!
and it also depends on the carrier...dont forget, zombies bite living people, transferring the virus over to the next host
