What role did the appearance of Catherine's ghost play?

Chapter 3. (Please I need neither a too short answer nor a too long one & thanks).

They never outgrew their solidarity against the oppressive forces of adult authority and religion that is described in Catherine's diary. Thus the ghost of Catherine Linton (that is her married name) tries to return to her childhood sanctuary, which Heathcliff has kept in its original state. This challenges the dominion of linear time.
