You can't really unless you wanna redo every animation however you can change the given assets to make it appear like that

There is some fandadling with changing hat to get extra assets but that's wierd

I just want to add new element without custom animations

Depending on the scope of the additions, you could make a prefab that follows a symbol similar to torch fire or the whirly fan. However this method is prone to clipping or looking weird depending on where its following for certain animations, there is also limits to the precision on what symbols you want to follow. Also updating the symbols to be in sync such as rotation might be tricky if you have say ears facing more than one direction.

For your purposes I recommend just including the ears into your character's ghost body texture, as its the simplest and cleanest way to accomplish this without needing to do code.

ghost sprite is a bit too small to add ears or some parts to them

Last time i added new part to ghost, without adding new animations but i dont remember how i did it and i think it should be public to help anyone who wants modify ghost themself.

You can change the dimensions of the .png, if you are concerned about the pivot. Just make the increase the same in both directions. So if you increase the blank space at the top you can also increase the blank space at the bottom. It should be a simple canvas adjustment in your art program.

I changed ghost resolution and setup pivot, most of animations looks good but when im haunting something, animation is glitching and it looks like that, for a 1 or 2 seconds.

Maybe instead of doing it for each of the body symbols, attach it to the face? I think you might be going over the file size limits of the compiler.
As this glitch seems to happen when too many .tex get created because the dimensions are too large.
