No ghosts. But two characters go through a "haunted forest" and scare themselves with ghost stories.

Anne accidentally serves Diana red currant wine which she thinks is raspberry cordial. Diana stumbles home and throws up in the bushes outside of her house. It does not actually show the vomit, but you hear her retch and see her falling to the ground with her head in the bushes.
