In ancient India all the ghost seems like a hungry ghost.Ghosts were known as Bhoots in ancient and even in modern India. They are called like that because the ghost in India appear like human being but the feet will be pointed backward and they are able to change their appearance without any warning. 
Thier backward feet shows that something is wrong and the spirit is in unnatural state. 
This ghost in India appears when a person dies before their time alloted in the earth.

It is believed that the ghost can make their on corps. And this was a great concern in ancient India.

This is the believe in India .
