You can definitely get as detailed as you like. I kept my ghosts super simple by drawing on eyes and an open mouth with a black edible marker. When the ghosts have dried, they can be decorated. Stabilize the shape by securing the ghost with pins. Curve the ghost around a foam cake dummy in the desired shape. I wanted some of the ghosts to have some movement and curve slightly, sort of like they’re flying, so while they’re still pliable, the ghosts can be shaped. Leave the ghosts to dry until it holds its shape but is still a bit pliable, about 4-6 hours. You can also shape some so that just the bottom tapers, leaving the rest of the ghost billowy.
