Dungeon Geist question

yes noob question okay but it enters the battlefield and taps a target creature, this create doesnt untap during the controllers untap phase as long as you control this.
Now I am fairly new to MTG so go easy lol I just wana know if it taps a target creature does the creature get tapped forever? well until the geist goes of course. I am probably getting the wrong end of the stick here but some help would be appreciated thanks.
Right. As long as Dungeon Geists is in play, chosen creature Dungeon Geists tapped stays tapped for as long as Dungeon Geists stays in play. If Dungeon Geists gets removed during your turn, that creature untap's at opponent's next upkeep. If Dungeon Geists gets removed on opponents turn it is free to attack, and doesn't have summoning sickness.

I need another precision about this card. What happened if I own the geist and I decide to bounce him during my turn, in exemple with venser's capacity.
The geist is exiled during my turn and come back at my end step. When he come back I can target a new creature. The geist is on the board at my opponent's untap phase and he target 2 creatures (1 when I cast him and the second when he come back from exile) So what happened?
I guess the 2 creatures can't untapped, but i'm not sure. Maybe someone can confirm it?

When the Dungeon Geists leaves the battlefield via the bounce effect, the original creature is "freed from its control". It will enter the battlefield as a completely new permanent, and will lose all recognition of what it was doing before. So it will tap the 2nd creature, and then the other creature is free from it/ not affected by it.

Dungeon Geists
's effect causes the creature it taps to not untap during its controller's untap step. If another effect untaps that creature (Traitorous Blood
, Village Bell-Ringer
, etc.) untaps the creature, it will remain untapped until it is tapped again. If it becomes tapped again, it will still be subject the the Geist's ability.
