The Spectre owes someone, say a mortal reporter who is Aware – how does the mortal get ahold of their ghostly ally? In a world of cell phones, I’m curious how you handle this. Maybe the ghost has a phone somewhere he can get messages at? Maybe a mortal friend, the person he’s haunting, takes messages for him?

Call them on their ghosty phone! (That’s what Im gonna do in my game, since the ghost has a ghosty rendition of all the stuff they had when they died)
Ask the player! Ghost phone makes sense, but maybe there’s another way of contacting ghosts in your city. Saying their name three times while looking into a mirror, chanting Latin into a handful of grave dirt, pulling the string on a doll with a lock of their hair sewn in, whatever.
Or maybe they’re like anyone else without a cell phone and you just have to call them on a landline or something. Phone booths are pretty appropriate. Those booths on a lonely corner you hear ringing in the witching hour? Totally someone calling a ghost.
James Etheridge, so yes!!!
This is easy. You just find the phone that the Spectre had in life and let the battery run out. Ta da! Dead phone.
