Yep, it's a roguelike based heavily on the works of Tolkien, and there's an option to start your character as a ghost trying to escape from the Halls of Mandos. Despite getting tons of bonuses, like increased speed, automatic detection of monsters from a long distance, and the ability to walk through walls, these Lost Souls usually die very quickly. I think it has something to do with starting at depths where ancient dragons are the least of your worries and your character is only level 1
