A picture and some rewrites of examples (if that's fine with you...)

* All of those who have passed on and wind up in the land of the dead in ''WesternAnimation/{{Coco}}'' become this. The Calacas are all skeletal, but their design include fully-functioning human eyes and small ornate markings. They are only aloud to venture to the land of the living when their living relatives have their photographs displayed on an altar during Dia De Los Muertos and can take the astral forms of inanimate objects (from food to guitars and clothes) back with them. Living humans that are brought to the afterlife can only be sent back from a blessing of a relative that is already there before sunrise lest they turn into a calicos permanently. Should the memory of them on Earth fade away completely, they themselves fade away into "the final death." 
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheBookOfLife'', all those who have died and have people among the living who remember them live out their afterlives in an endless fiesta in the Land of the Remembered. They are usually white skeletons with colorful designs decorating them, their eyes glowing orange dots in their eye sockets. Should the memory of them fade away completely, they are then sent to the Land of the Forgotten, where they wander aimlessly - their bones blackened with glowing green eyes and markings - before fading away into dust.
