Siblings Reunited

Arthur gasped after hearing what the Vampire said.
His sister was fighting! Even after death, she was fighting as a ghost.
Something he never thought or imagined possible at all.
His sister was so furious, so filled with dark thoughts, that her corpse and her soul became corrupted, becoming undead.
But for some reason, she wasn't a mindless one, she acted methodically, cunningly, and constantly grew stronger as well.
Usually, corpses that died gruesomely would always be purified and washed with holy water, if not burned away.
But for some negligence in part of those that handled her execution, Maria's corpse and soul were not burned nor purified.
Meaning that over time, all the hatred she accumulated, it transformed her soul, corrupting her, she cursed herself, becoming a ghost.
"My sister… a ghost?" Arthur gasped. "She… She's fighting…?"
