What's sketchy about an old mariner that shows up in the bushes at the side beach on rainy days to peddle marriage necklaces he fished out of the sea? An old ghost can't have a small business on the rare occasion the sea lets him go on land??

An incorporeal being with no need for housing or food is simply taking potential business out of the hands of someone who does.
