The structure of a relativistic field which contains "ghost" (zero norm) states is investigated. Restrictions are made for the case of free fields, which can be thought of as asymptotic parts of a more complicated theory. According to the interpretation the in- or out-going fields may be eliminated from the physical results. If explicit calculations are to be made in any more concrete theory, it is easier to handle dipole ghosts than exponential ghosts. (B.O.G.)
