Ghosts are a form of lesser undead, and their fear power requires a 3 x WP
roll to avoid.  Elves are immune to this.

Ghouls kill anyone infected by their bite ... elves are immune to this also.

The other lesser undead don't really have special abilities that elves can
avoid.

I believe the source of the "elf immunity" rule is from "Lord of the Rings",
when Legolas says something like "ghosts of men hold no fear for elves" when
they are travelling through the Paths of the Dead.
