Assuming that ghosts, in fact, are real, the answer would vary depending on religion. The most common explanation is that a person is made up of 2 or 3 parts. Usually 1) body and 2) spirit/soul. Although the body would have been killed the mind of the person (in the second part of the spirit/soul) lives on as a ghost. The other common explanation is similar in that a person is made of 3 parts, the parts being 1) body 2) mind and 3)spirit/soul with the body being the earthly body, the soul/spirit being the very essence or core of that person (that is, the part of them that makes them them) with the mind being the "link" between the soul and the body. In this case, the ghost would probably be the soul/spirit in addition to the mind or just the soul/spirit without a mind.
