restless souls
Those who roam
Restless souls are people who can't settle—driven by dissatisfaction, wanderlust, or unfinished business.
The phrase often describes those who move from place to place or pursuit to pursuit, unable to find peace: This bar attracts restless souls passing through town.
In supernatural contexts, restless souls are spirits of the dead who haven't found peace, lingering because of unresolved grievances or improper burial.
