These crabs often make in beach holes, and produce little pasil balls. These holes and burrows are ghost crab protective tunnels. Take a good look and you can often see the scratchy foot scratches and sand excavations the crabs leave behind when they are dug. Crab Ghosts are practically land animals, and they sometimes need to run to the edge of the water and immediately dip the gills.

They spend most of their time in their burrows, protected from drying; But during the night, they come out and scavenge along the beach and the tide for food. Ghost colored crabs are almost the same as dry sand, and they have strong claws, hard legs, and look up on the stalk. So when they move fast in the dim light, it feels like you think you see a small ghost crossing the beach.
