What if Ghost gained his call sign because wherever he is deployed spooky shits happened.
Like, things at that place was perfectly normal until the moment Ghost set his foot into the base.
And bam. Suddenly the place becomes a horror house.
Foot steps in the dead of the night in the hall way, strangers appears over night visions, whispers haunting the mess hall or comms being disturbed with weird sounds at odd times and so on.
People begins to notice the pattern, Simon Riley is the Ghost both literally and figuratively. The man haunt everywhere he goes.
Words passing through hushed, quiet whisper among soldiers.
Simon, however, for some reasons, is peacefully unaware of his spookiness and always assumed that his call sign is result from his kill count and his mask.
141 knows about this, and it’s not an usual sight to see both Gaz and the Captain being severely sleep deprived because of those… noises (?) before Soap join them. Then the sunshine in shape of a demolishes specialist arrived and managed to balance out the grumpy lieutenant’s spookiness.
After that, some how, supernatural events around Ghost slowly ease out and the whole military has never been more grateful.
(I was listening to this podcast and the idea just popped up 😂)
