Restligeist

What is Restligeist?

1.

A fake German Loan word (since it was made my an English-speaking American) meaning the same thing as a residual ghost, or a ghost that is only a repeating of the past. It comes from the German words Restlich (residual) and Geist (ghost).

There's a restligeist in my house of a woman crying, and it scares the crap out of me.

See geist, ghost, haunting, poltergeist, doppelganger, schattenwesen, demon, spirit, phantom
