Maybe they could have their own talk show. And it could broadcast coast to coast

I misread ghosts as “goats”
So if they don’t experience gravity they are made of neither matter nor antimatter.
Or they’re flung in a straight-line tangent out from Earth’s orbit, like water drops flying off a spinning sponge
An ever expanding fan of souls, bleeding into the dark
This sounds like it should be the premise of a Doctor Who episode.
If they’re unaffected by gravity, chances are they don’t have mass. If they don’t have mass, they’re not constrained by the Higgs field, which in turn means that they can never move at any velocity below light speed.
Their unfortunate fate is to roam across all of space at the maximum possible velocity in perpetuity.
I think about the same thing every time I watch a time travel movie or show.
They should teleport into empty space every time
This assumes some concept of location independent of the surrounding matter.
We like to think that way because we live on a mostly-not-changing clump of rock and dirt.
There is nothing to define location other than what’s nearby.
The only alternative anyone ever proposes is larger clumps of matter further away. Relative to the sun. Relative to the center of the Milky Way. Center of the Milky Way is the most “legit” Nonmoving Point we can think of.
But maybe the legitimacy of the nonmoving point is based also on its nearness to you. Perhaps the thing that defines the wormhole’s position through spacetime is inertia and gravity.
Hard to see what else it might be, other than “it doesn’t move” which, the entire point above being, doesn’t really exist
