Simply put, the '''Cute Ghost Girl''' is a female member of the cast who just so happens to be a ghost. Despite this fact, they often look entirely like a normal person (except for the presence of [[Ghost Lights]] and a [[Fog Feet|lack of feet]]), will act accordingly, and are treated more or less normally by the rest of the cast. The whole "they're dead" aspect is not considered a big deal by anyone, and once they are inducted into the cast the fact that they are a ghost will only come up on occasion. Oftentimes, it can be easy to forget that they're a ghost because they act so much like the rest of the cast. . .to the extent that the cute ghost girl herself is sometimes afraid of ghosts.

* Okinu from ''[[Ghost Sweeper Mikami]]''. {{spoiler|She comes back to life eventually, since her lieless body is found uncorrupted and still in use..}}

* The Zashiki Warashi that lives in Japan's home in ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]''. {{spoiler|It's all but stated that she and the [[Kappa]] have to leave, though, since Japan cannot see them anymore.}}

 

* ''[[Young Justice (comics)|Young Justice]]'' had Secret, a sweet and naive ghost girl who showed up in a prequel issue and stuck around.

* [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|The eponymous ghost]] in [[Anyas Ghost]] is a nice, polite little spirit, wearing an old-fashioned dress and poofy 'dandelion' hair. {{spoiler|Of course, she's not quite so lovable after she goes all [[Yandere]] on Anya...}}

 

== [[Film]] ==

* Poisoning victim in [[The Sixth Sense]], sans vomit.

* Suzie from the Disney Channel movie ''Suzie Q''

 

== [[Literature]] ==

* Jane Thayer's ''Gus Was a Friendly Ghost'' series is a rare male example. Gus seems to have always "lived" in the attic of an old house (later converted to a museum), and the people he interacts with have no real trouble accepting him as a roommate.

 

* Thelma in ''[[Hex]]'' is a prime example of this character type.

* Komachi from ''[[Madan Senki Ryukendo]]''. She's a ghost that only Kenji can see most of the time, and when she temporarily regains her body in one episode, she ends up faceplanting into the wall, since she can't walk through it anymore.

* Sarah Collins on ''[[Dark Shadows (TV series)|Dark Shadows]]'' first appeared as a ghost, mostly to young David Collins, and in fact became his friend. The few other people she appeared to usually thought that she was just a regular little girl (budgetary constraints of the show prevented her usually looking particularly "ghostly" aside from her late-eighteenth century attire.) She was cute (if sometimes annoying, pretty much constantly accompanied by her theme music, "London Bridge," and usually bouncing a toy ball) and was also later instrumental in helping Maggie Evans escape from {{spoiler|Barnabas Collins, Sarah's cursed vampire brother}}.

 

* A musical example would be ''Little Ghost'', by the [[The White Stripes]]:

''When I held her I was really holding air'' }}

* [[The Decemberists]]' "Leslie Ann Levine", [[Squick|whose mother birthed her down a dry ravine]].

 

== [[Video Games]] ==

* Athena in the [[Remix Comic]] version of ''[[Jet Dream]]'' is a strange magical figure who only appears to Harmony. She doesn't look especially "ghostly," perhaps due to the author's apparent confusion over whether Athena is [[Sadly Mythtaken|the goddess of wisdom and warfare or a "ghost girl warrior of olden times."]]
