Ghosts are a bit tricky. You're going to need an enchanted weapon to defeat them. That, or magical abilities. Zombies, though, you just need to damage their brains; I suggest a cricket bat.

If video games have tought me anything, and they sure have, it's that sawed off shotguns work wonders on Zombies.  :)

Shotguns are crappy anti-zombie weapons. Their range is far too short, when zombies are that close you likely have serious problems. What you want is a rifle for long range and a melee weapon (baseball or cricket bat) for close. Shotguns and chainsaws both suck.

For close range the ideal weapon would obviously be a chainsaw. But then you would have to worry about fuel, so it might be a good idea to keep a katana strapped to your back.

what about daggers? Obviously katanas would work the best for bladed weapons, but come on...daggers are small, and easy to conceal. I think someone may get suspicious if they see someone with a katana strapped to their back.

I have to say I would never choose a dagger over a Katana.
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Zombies don't get suspicious.

Chainsaws are bad ideas. They can run out of gas, they can jam up (especially when covered with blood), they get dangerous to the user (especially when they're slippery with blood -- see Dawn of the Dead 2k4 for more info), and they're really noisy, which attracts more zombies. Other than looking cool, there is absolutely no benefit to using a chainsaw on zombies.

A katana, kept sharp enough to cut through a neck, would work well. Failing that, a club.
