Ghosts vs Zombies: Take your pick

 Which do you think is better? One dark stormy night, on the left side of the grave yard, the ghoulish ghosts, rise up out of their bodies graves and on the right, the ghastly zombies, scratching, digging, out of their graves...

Who Will Win? The ghosts... or the zombies.....
     Ghosts vs Zombies: Who will win?











Ghosts
In traditional belief and fiction, a ghost is the soul or spirit of a deceased person or animal that can appear, in visible form or other manifestation, to the living. Descriptions of the apparition of ghosts vary widely from an invisible presence to translucent or barely visible wispy shapes, to realistic, life-like visions. The deliberate attempt to contact the spirit of a deceased person is known as necromancy, or in spiritism as a séance.


Zombies
zombie is an animated corpse brought back to life by mystical means, such as witchcraft.The term is often figuratively applied to describe a hypnotized person bereft of consciousness and self-awareness, yet ambulant and able to respond to surrounding stimuli. Since the late 19th century, zombies have acquired notable popularity, especially in North American and European folklore.  


Weapons:


Ghosts

You're [you = the ghosts] probably better off with a conventional firearm. At least this is one area where we are spared the interminable debate of 9mm v .45 handguns and 5.56mm v 7.62mm. Unlike living humans & ghosts, stopping power counts for nothing as far as zombies go; it's all about shot placement. (And reliability – take at least one back-up gun in case you get a jam or run out of ammo at a bad time.) Given the choice between a rifle and a smaller handgun, rifles are preferred because of their accuracy. Handguns only become more useful once the zombie is within biting and pouncing range.

Zombies
Zombies can arm themselves with something made of iron – It doesn't matter what it is as long as it’s made of iron, as iron is the only metal that ghosts cannot pass through, so it can be used to hit them.


Strengths:


Ghosts
A good thing about ghosts is they can walk through walls and hold things if they want to. Ghosts are able to 'swim' through water, where as uncoordinated zombies cannot.


Zombies
Ghosts can only control themselves 75% of the time. Also, they can secure things more easily.



Weakness:


Ghosts
Ghosts, as said above, can only handle and touch (therefore harming people/zombies) thing 75% of the time. They also are emotionally fragile.

Zombies
They have a constant need for brains.

Analysis
I personally believe zombies would win, based on the facts here. What do you think?





Zombies
Zombies can arm themselves with something made of iron- It doesn’t matter what it is as long as it’s made of iron, as iron is the only metal that ghosts cannot pass through, so it can be used to hit them. Get the salt – Ghosts, as a general rule, don’t like salt (I think it has something to do with watching their blood pressure) so merely throwing salt in their general direction should scare them off.
