My personal theory is that Avada Kedavra causes the persons soul to
evade their body and be sucked into the casters wand, leaving no
ghost behind at all. If this is the case, that would give him an even
better reason to go after Voldemort.
After all, Priori Incantem is casting a shadow of the reverse of the
previous spells. The opposite of having someones ghost come out of a
wand I would think would be pulling their soul into the wand. This
would also give another good reason why the spell is Unforgivable.
Now that I've said this, JK Rowling will undoubtedly put the ghost of
someone who's been AK'ed in book 5, just to ruin my theory...
