Ghost shape in TikZ/pgf

Question

My question

I can easily draw the normal distribution thanks to this answer by Jake. What about the ghost ?

Context

This image always breaks the ice when teaching probabilities :)

(Not that I care so much about it, but Halloween is getting closer too)

I presume it would be possible with Inkscape (but I am not familiar with it).

This answer by Paul Gaborit uses the hobby package I tried to adapt (poorly as you'll see, far too manual to be honnest) in my MWE.

I'd be happy to see different approaches too (pure tikz, pgfplot, other libraries...).

\documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
\usetikzlibrary{hobby}
\usetikzlibrary{calc}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[use Hobby shortcut]

\draw[
  help lines,
  line width=0.1pt,
  blue,
] (-20, -20) grid[step={($(5, 5) - (0, 0)$)}] (60, 100);

  \path
  (0,0) coordinate (z0)
  (10,10) coordinate (z1)
  (20,0) coordinate (z2)
  (30,10) coordinate (z3)
  (40,0) coordinate (z4)
  (50,10) coordinate (z5)
  (30,90) coordinate (z6)
  (0,70) coordinate (z7)
  (0,60) coordinate (z8)
;
  \draw[closed,black, line width= 3mm] (z0) .. (z1) .. (z2)  .. (z3) .. (z4) .. (z5).. (z6).. (z7).. (z8);
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Seeing that it's been 11 hours and no one else has nitpicked yet, I just had to remark that putting the two images side by side, could be seen as implying that the "Paranormal distribution" is also expected to be a 2d plot of a single variable probability density function, but of course it's not a function, with multiple y values for the same x. Therefore, to avoid any such confusion, I would recommend that we instead treat the "Paranormal Distribution" as a joint (bivariate) density function, which then has the added benefit of giving you a good reason to include colors ;) — yoniLavi, Commented Oct 8, 2021 at 10:08
@yoniLavi Geogebra gives an idea on how to a a achieve an answer with pgfplot. — JeT, Commented Oct 9, 2021 at 10:15

This is my attempt, using TikZ and a lot of to[out=...,in=...]s.

\documentclass[border=2mm,tikz]{standalone}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[thick,line cap=round]
  % grid
  %\draw[gray] (-5,0) grid[step=0.5] (5,13);
  % ghost 'body'
  \draw[line width=0.75mm] (0,1.5) to[out=0,in=180] (1.5,0)
    to[out=0  ,in=180] (3,2) to[out=0,in=135] (4,1.5)
    to[out=-45,in=-45,looseness=2] (4.5,2) 
    to[out=135,in=270] (3,8)
    to[out=90 ,in=90 ,looseness=2.5] (-3,8)
    to[out=270,in=45] (-4.5,2)
    to[out=225,in=225,looseness=2] (-4,1.5)
    to[out=45 ,in=180] (-3,2)
    to[out=0  ,in=180] (-1.5,0)
    to[out=0  ,in=180] (0,1.5);
  % ghost eyes
  \foreach\i in {-1,1}
  {%
    \begin{scope}[shift={(\i-0.3,8.5)},rotate=\i*10]
      \fill ellipse (0.3 cm and 0.6 cm);
    \end{scope}}
  % axis
  \draw (-5.5,-1) -- (5.5,-1);
  \foreach\i in {-5,...,5}
    \draw (\i,-1) --++ (0,-0.2);
  \node at (0,-2) {\huge\bfseries Paranormal Distribution};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

And the ghost:

You could use the ghost from halloweenmath

\usepackage{halloweenmath,graphicx}
\begin{document}
\resizebox{4cm}{!}{$\mathghost$}

A quick suggestion with pure tikz:

\documentclass[border=6.66mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}

\begin{document}
    
    \begin{tikzpicture}[smooth cycle]
        
        \draw[] plot[tension=1]
        coordinates{(0,0)  (1,1) (2,0) (3,1) (4,0) (4,4) (3,9) (0,2) (0,1)};
        
        %eyes
        \draw[fill=black,rotate around={-45:(2.3,7)}] (2.3,7) ellipse (2mm and 3.5mm);
        \draw[fill=black,rotate around={-45:(3.3,7)}] (3.3,7) ellipse (2mm and 3.5mm);
        
        %mouth [optional]
        \draw[fill=black,rotate around={-10:(3,5)}] (3,5) arc (0:-180:0.5cm and 3mm);
        
        \end{tikzpicture}
    
\end{document}

With four parameters I can fit an elephant, and with five I can make him wiggle his trunk. John von Neumann

The trick with hobby is to start with a few points on the shape and then add more points where the curve deviates from the one wanted. The more points, the more specific the curve. With the ghost, the wiggly bottom edge clearly needs several points, and then there needs to be another on each side just above the bottom edge to get the sides under control, but the rest of the sides doesn't need any more points.

I used Drawing on an image with TikZ to define a coordinate system overlaying the original image to place the points. I've left this code in the document below (commented out). This does mean that the coordinates are specified on a small scale (since the coordinate system goes from (0,0) to (1,1)) but a suitable scale=20 fixes that.

\documentclass{article}
%\url{https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/618136/86}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{hobby}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}[use Hobby shortcut]
%\node[anchor=south west,inner sep=0pt] at (0,0) (ghost) {\includegraphics{ghost.png}};
%\begin{scope}[x={(ghost.south east)},y={(ghost.north west)}]
%\draw[blue,ultra thin] (.3,.1) grid[step=.01] (.7,.6);
%\draw[blue,ultra thick] (0,0) grid[step=.1] (1,1);
\begin{scope}[scale=20]
\draw[ultra thick]
([closed].5,.52) ..
(.6,.28) ..
(.625,.22) ..
(.6,.21) ..
(.58,.22) ..
(.55,.17) ..
(.5,.21) ..
(.45,.17) ..
(.43,.21) ..
(.39,.195) ..
(.4,.26)
;

\fill[black] (.515,.425) ellipse[x radius=.01, y radius=.02];
\fill[black] (.47,.425) ellipse[x radius=.01, y radius=.02];

    \end{scope}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

To make the top a little more curved, add points at (.53,.51) and (.47,.51) either side of the point at (.5,.52).

@Andrew Impressive. Very clear explations. The TikZ over an image solves my poor attempt. I steal your VN quote :) — JeT, Commented Oct 8, 2021 at 21:12

My (very) improvable attempt with pgfplot.

Thanks to all the great previous answers and Geogebra, It helped me having a more precise idea.

\documentclass[tikz,border=3.14mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\usetikzlibrary{shapes}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.17}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[
        countour/.style={line width=1.5pt,domain=-2.5:2.95},
        eyes/.style={scale=0.6,ellipse,fill=black,minimum height=10pt,,rotate=90},
        declare function={
            wave(\x) = 0.05 * sin(260*\x) -0.03 ; 
            Gauss(\x) = 1/(sqrt(2*pi))*exp(-0.5*(pow(\x,2))); 
        }
    ]
    \begin{axis}[samples = 100]
        \addplot[countour] {Gauss(x)};
        \addplot[countour] {wave(x)};
        \node[eyes]  at (axis cs:-0.4, 0.23) {aa} ;    
        \node[eyes]  at (axis cs:0.4, 0.23) {aa} ;    
    \end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture} 
\end{document}
