How do ghosts spawn in Terraria?

Ghosts in Terraria spawn in the Cavern and Underground layers during the Halloween seasonal event, and they can also be found in the Graveyard mini-biome, regardless of time, with a chance to spawn when breaking Tombstones. To prevent ghosts from spawning, players can simply break the blocks under the Tombstones, which is a faster and more efficient method than breaking the tombstones themselves, and can even prevent the vicious cycle of ghost spawns.
