I don't think it was ever said that ALL who died on land became ghosts, but those who died on Raven's Cove certainly became ghosts. It could be argued however, that the reason they became ghosts could have had something to do with a curse Jolly Roger put on the island, or the curse that El Patron used to trap Foulberto Smasho or whatever turned El Patron into a ghost when he died. There were a lot of things that was never really explained.

I can say that Captain Walter was killed at sea and he became a ghost. So I don't think land has anything to do with it. I think it has to do with the way they are killed, (ex. Jolly Roger using his voodoo powers) or the spirit of the person killed. (Constance Sorrow was heart broken about the death of her husband and roamed the Caribbean looking for brave pirates to face Jolly Roger)
