According to the _Star Trek: Encyclopedia_, *jat'yIn* is "the taking of the
living by the dead".
The glossary to Keith R.A. DeCandido's pro-novel _Diplomatic
Implausibility_ has: "According to legend, spirits of the dead that
possess the living."
IIRC, the term was mentioned by Worf in the TNG episode "Power Play".
