📋 About This Mod
Ghost in vanilla Skyrim are simply transparent bandits, this mod attempts to differentiate ghosts from live NPC's. These are edited vanilla Skyrim animations applied to ghosts using DAR.

The animations also play with Katria the ghost from the Dawnguard dlc and also work with the ghost of the mod clockwork,
let me know of any ghost from the game or other mods that is not added automatically.
Is not a replacer all done through DAR, does not have a plugin or scripts, should be compatible with everything (the attack animations won't play with combat mods like Skysa, ABR, MCO, etc.., the movement animations will) safe to install mid playthrough and safe to uninstall at any moment.

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 581 endorsements and over 110k downloads.

⚠️ Cons
- Only affects vanilla ghosts; mod-added ghosts won't get the animations.

💡 Beginner Tips

- If you use other DAR animation mods, check for conflicts in the mod manager and adjust load order so this mod's animations take priority for ghosts.
- Test the mod in a save where you can encounter a ghost early, like in a dungeon, to see the effect immediately.
