Line 35:
** Also used amusingly when Daikichi finds an old "dead" cellphone and discovers that Kana can use it to keep in touch with him. A stylized ghost light is her chat icon and takes place of the signal meter on her phone.
* [[Kekkaishi]] has these following Madarao and Hakubi.
* Inori in ''[[Hyakko]]'' '''isn't''' a ghost, even though it's lampshaded that she '''looks''' like [[The Ring|Sadako]]. But in Chapter 40, she's shown with a pair of Ghost Lights. Oddly, this is at a moment when she's overcoming her usual painful shyness, not despairing.

Line 48 ⟶ 49:
** As the princess of a ghost palace (and a ghost herself), Yuyuko Saigyouji seems to be continuously surrounded by these. Her [[Battle Butler|servant]], Youmu Konpaku, also has one of these next to her at all times, which happens to be half of her own soul—because she's only ''half'' ghost (don't ask me how that works).
*** Both Yuyuko and Youmu use their Ghost Lights as [[Attack Drone]]s in the games where they are playable. So does [[Brother Chuck|Mima]] from PC98 games.
*** The fan-made video ''Fantasy Kaleidoscope ~The Memories of Phantasm~'' has a scene of Youmu '''petting''' her Ghost Light as if it's a [[Right-Hand-Cat]] while she confronts Marisa.
** Rin Kaenbyou is surrounded by what appears to be ''skull'' ghost lights—appropriate, since her job is to carry off corpses into the underworld.
*** In some spell cards, she is accompanied by ''zombie fairies'', which look pretty similar (though a later [[All There in the Manual|guidebook]] claims that they're just normal fairies who like to dress up).
Line 61 ⟶ 63:
* In ''[[Animal Crossing]]'' (Gamecube), when wandering the town at 3AM you can sometimes be disturbed by an unknown presence whispering, which reveals itself to be a ghost if you stay in one place long enough. He explains his dire situation, where he needs to retrieve 5 Ghost Lights which slowly float around the town. If you don't, his Master (whose name changes every time) will be very displeased. Collecting them for him before Sunrise will have him perform a favor for you, one of which is simultaneously plucking every Weed in town for you.
** He also appears in the Wii version, but instead requires his missing Lamp or else he is stuck in town for the night.
* The Zombie Possessor in ''[[EarthboundEarthBound]]'' inflicts this as a status ailment.
* In ''[[Gotcha Force]]'' The demonic samurai borg has two floating skull ghost lights that can be used for attack.
* Will O' Wisp is one of the attacks in ''[[Pokémon]]''. It is classified as a Fire-type move and burns the opponent. However outside the TM it is learned mainly by Ghost pokemon naturally. And Vulpix to reflect it's kitsune influence.
Line 72 ⟶ 74:
* In the first season finale of ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' after being transported to the spirit world, Aang runs through a swampy region chasing a mysterious small light sphere. When he climbed up a tree and grabbed it, it made the tree branch dissolve.
* [[Pixar Shorts|''Mater and the Ghostlight'']]
* ''[[Brave]]'' has the [[Cold FireFlames|Wisps]], which appears glowing blue lights and apparently have the power to change fate.
