I think active invitation is not necessary. Acceptance will be enough. Corpstaker needed Morts permission not his invitation.

Why did you say Harry needed an invitation rather than permission then? Just a slip-up?

I did not pay attention to the finer details. Have to look it up in ghost story to be sure though.

I reread that section in GS. At location 828 of 7929 (Kindle version), Mort says that he needed to borrow Harry's skills for a moment, then thanks him. That seems invitational to me...

After he ate all the ghosts he could manifest a body and do the eye-contact spirit swap with Butters. Butters jumped into the manifested body but didn't have the ability to maintain the manifestation.

I thought Harry accidentally landed in Mort, and Mort basically grabbed him, used Harry to throw up a shield, then booted him out. That gave Harry enough knowledge to realize later that he could possess Molly (with permission) and use his magic through her.
