I think many people believe that a ghost has malintent because, if they are still here, it often means there was something 'wrong' with them...unsettled, angry, confused. A being that has good intent, we often believe to move on when they die. So, for me at least, unless it's a relative that has moved on that comes for a visit, I wonder what might be negative about a spirit that is still here. (And it's also really unsettling when you wake up and they are watching you.)
I also, grew up watching scary movies where the ghosts were either evil, or just confused and eerie.
And probably most of all, our society as a whole has still not embraced the spiritual world. Maybe 1 out of 10 people that I know actually truly believe they even exist. Many people don't WANT to believe in anything except what their five senses can detect.
