Keep in mind that the paranormal is subjective to everyone's interpretation, so this is just our theory on your question.
We classify "Spirits" as people who have died and passed over correctly. These people go to where they are supposed to whether it's heaven, home, the Other Side; whatever you call it. Spirits can come and visit us, but the difference is they always go back "home." If your grandfather comes on the foot of your bed after his death 2 days prior and tells you not to worry and that he's doing fine, then he is a "Spirit."
A "Ghost" is an individual that for whatever reason, has decided to stay in a location and NOT go to where most people go. The reasons for their lagging behind varies on the individual themselves. With female ghosts their reason is usually emotionally driven; with males it tends to be driven by possessive or controlling behavior. Ghosts can leave their locations at any time and go "home", however, most of them have made a choice to stay and consider the places they haunt as their "home". Of course there are always some ghosts that are not even aware that they have died. There are many of those as well.
But many of them are aware that they have died, and cannot "give up the ghost" so to speak.
