How to get rid of ghosts

[Raccoon]

I may have took a bit too long to bury my dead dwarves and now I'm dealing with ghosts.
How do I get rid of them? I'm now setting up coffins but I can't seem to find the bodies of the dwarves that turned into ghosts, even making a burial slab suggests making them for the ghosts rather than the actual dwarf.

If you can't access the bodies for some reason :
make slab->then "engrave slab" job at the workshop and pick the guy name. Then place the slab somewhere. Stoneworking wroskhop for slab and engraving. Do note you need a slab THEN engrave it.

if you cant bury the body you can etch a slab (just underneath the coffin tab) to the dwarf and itll remove the ghost. Your dwarfs will be able to find the bodies on their own however if you do build a coffin

You also need a tomb room. Remember that tomb can only hold 1 dead, no matter the amount of coffins.

Got ghosts? Hit em with a slab.

Thanks, I didn't understand how the slab thing works, I thought selecting engrave would make an engraved slab, I didn't realize I had to craft one before.
