I am wondering what it is like to be a ghost or to experience reality without a physical body like the people who have died or live in haunted houses. Some people describe it as relaxing and other people say it's scary or unfulfilling if they did not accomplish things they wanted. If you guys have ever died or are currently dead, what is your experience?

The closest experience I ever experienced in my life was my prelife form without a physical body.

I can't say if it was relaxing, scary, unfulfilling or any thing. I was in a state of time being meaningless.

One day when I quit existing I will return and hopefully remain in that state for a long time until I start existing again. I have never been asked if I wanted to exist so I just exist until I quit existing

I see what you mean. I guess I've experienced similar while blacking out or being knocked out and not remembering so this helps to understand it.
