You mean that there was a ghost image of one of the villagers? Is it one of the villagers that has already passed away. You know one of our villagers that we once had and they died? Or is it a villager that looks different than ones we have had? If I'm not mistaken I think I read somewhere that there was a ghost that had a long beard and he was there for a minute and then just disappeared. Is it like that?

If I remember correctly, the ghost villager image was a girl, with dark purple hair, and the white and light blue dress on. It looked like this:

Just a little whiter.

[spolier] There is a stew for that in the guides

where is the cauldren guide

In the Guides section for the game. Click "Forum List" and scroll down to the bottom.

I finally beat the gong today and it said that my villagers gained vision. And since I was aware of this being a ghost I went to the graveyard and there in the far back right hand corner was a ghostly image of a blonde girl with a long white dress on.
She was looking into the bushes back there.
I am wondering if there is some kind of entrance to somewhere else on the island behind the bushes.

Maybe that's what happened to me without me noticing it. One of my villagers has been buried twice, meaning he has two stones. It's really strange.

I'm in trouble if that happens to me because I train the kids to be doctors first, then if they make it to elder I can check healing and let them enjoy the rest of their life. If I lost all the doctors, it would wipe me out.

When your elder turned into a 5 year old, did he stay an elder or did he lose all his skill? That's kinda neat that you get to hold onto a villager that was going to probably die soon another 50 plus years! Fluteteacher

I've heard that is can also grant life, and make every available women under 50 in your tribe have a baby...not sure if this is true or not but that is what I read on another post.
