No, not nice, but "benign." As in, not deliberately trying to harm or terrorize you. As you said, the farmer--even though he was probably a jerk and a lout--can't do anything. So, much like a benign tumor (which, while not fatal, all things considered, you'd still rather not have one in you) I'm more willing to believe in ghosts/spirits like yours, that are harmless.
I just don't go for the chain-rattling, blood curdling screaming, old-fashioned ghost stories.

Ah!
I see what you are saying now.
Yes.
We very occasionally get knocking on a couple of the interior doors. I think it's one of the kids.
No chains, though!
