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".
