Ghosts in Islam.

Hi everyone,

I came across this information online:

"According to Islam, the souls of the deceased dwell in barzakh and while it is only a barrier in Quran, in Islamic tradition the world, especially cemeteries, are perforated with several gateways to the otherworld. In rare occasions, the dead can appear to the living. Pure souls, such as the souls of saints, are commonly addressed as rūḥ, while impure souls seeking for revenge, are often addressed as afarit."

But the sources seem dubious (from what I can tell they're from non-Muslims writing about Islam) so I was wondering if there any Muslim sources that prove or disporve this information? And yes, this was specifically about Ghosts; ie - Human Souls - and not Jinn.

Thank you all.
