quite easy...it is part of their religion that people can be reincarnated, and some of them actually believe we have souls...so it depends on the person.
Another view:In Buddhism, it is believed that your consciousnesscontinues after your physical death and not your soul. Buddhists do not believe in a unchanging or eternal soul, which would move on from one life to the next.
Instead, reincarnation in Buddhism is based on
the law of cause and effect (karma) and
the acceptance of a beginningless continuum of consciousness.
Consciousness can continue after you body dies because mind and body are seen as distinct (even though they do influence each other) and thus each have a separate continuum.
Your inherited past actions remain as a subtle potential within the continuum of the mind. When activated, they cause the bringing together of mind and body, thus leading to a particular rebirth.
Likewise, when the potential of these inherited past actions is exhausted, then the continuum of your mind is separated from your body. So, the continuum of your mind or your consciousness does not die with your body but continues to your next rebirth.

A person's belief in ghosts is what can keep them alive. If you don't believe in ghosts then they will do some things to make you believe in them. Even hurt you if they have to. Trust me, I've had experience with them. They are real. Just because people haven't seen them or felt them doesn't mean that they don't exist. I mean you can't see air and you know that it exists, right? There are even ghosts in the bible so yeah they exist. Ghosts are spirits of those who have passed on, who are trapped on earth or choose to stay on earth.
