Well, revenge is a common theme in Roman ghost stories. For example, if someone was murdered or wronged in life, their ghost would seek revenge. Also, the ghosts are often associated with the past glories of Rome. So you might see a ghostly gladiator or a noble figure from the height of the Roman Empire. These elements add to the mystery and allure of the stories. They also connect the present to the rich history of Rome, making the stories more than just tales of the supernatural. There's a sense of history and cultural heritage tied to these common elements.

In Roman ghost stories, the ghosts usually have a strong connection to their former lives. This means they are often dressed in the traditional Roman clothing of their era. And there's always a sense of melancholy. Whether it's a lost love, a lost battle, or a lost life, the ghosts seem to be stuck in a state of sadness. Also, many of these ghost stories are set during the night, when the veil between the living and the dead is thought to be thinner in Roman folklore. This gives an eerie atmosphere to the stories.
