When I was a kid and living with my abusive family, I used to believe that the house was haunted. Over time I thought the ghost might be trying to comfort or help me. So I thought I had a ghost friend. Then as an adult I read how children in abusive situations tend to have hallucinations and other ways of coping with the trauma. I then realized I never had a ghost friend. My brain was just so desperate that it started creating means to cope. The reason I say it was this phenomenon is because after a certain age I never heard from my ghost friend again. It was around 16-17. I lived in the same situation and house past that and it never came back.
I sometimes wish my friend ghost had been real, because I have a lot of problems from my childhood. And honestly it would have been nice to have a constant supportive friend.

I was sad at first, but realized that they're now BFFs for eternity.
