No, the curse wasn't even intentional and he wanted to break it just not be revealed to of unintentionally caused it. His attempt was to free them all through killing the wife of the protagonist which of worked all the ghosts would get their wish of passing on to presumably to Heaven (possibly himself as well) but when foiled and exposed he said "Damn you all to Hell" which can easily be seen as a burst of anger vs a literal attempt. He says that and goes for the hero only for a giant monster to drag him to Hell at which point he grabs the protagonist figuring "I'll take you wilts me then". As for finding peace in death it's honestly not that uncommon of a desire for ghosts or undead a good example is Gentleman Ghost who wanted to pass on to the afterlife but couldn't due to basically a curse. Let's not forget the overall comedic tone of the film and that Ramsay isn't even super serious himself just a normal stoic butler. He was racist but never got a serious vibe on being abusive just a refusal towards who his master's lover feeling she was unworthy. Sure that makes him hatable but his crimes are one murder, the attempted murder towards the heroes out of rage of revealing the murder.
