Any chance that she might be afraid of Binns? She's afraid of
everything else except pushing little kids around; centaurs, giants,
werewolves, etc....

Also, how do you hurt or threaten a ghost. He doesn't need lodging. He
doesn't need pay. It doesn't matter how many long hours he works,
because, afteral, he has eternity. And how do you fire him. You can
tell him he's fired, but if dying didn't dissuade him from teaching, I
don't think Umbridge firing him would either. She's powerless to
affect him and she knows it, so she just left him alone.

Just a thought.
