By "ghost project" I mean those virtual projects that are made in eclipse to represent the modules. I guess I saw the term "ghost project" at some website and thought it was an accepted term :) Anyways, the link you refered to helped me. I had to use "import -> Other -> Materialize Maven projects". Then I pressed "Next" (without adding any Maven artifacts to the former dialog) and selected the root directory of my parent project as "Location" instead of "Use default Workspace Location".
Even though this solves my problem I would like to propose a more user friendly way of materializing maven projects based on modules of a parent project. Ideally I think it should be available directly from the right-click menu on parent projects.
