ARCHIVE SUMMARY

Phantom appears mainly through literary retellings and later adaptations, so the archive records how the figure was repeated and reshaped rather than a direct encounter sequence. A substantial secondary group (12 records) comes from the “Spirit-Person Narratives” archive category, so the archive does not present the label as one uniform account type. The accepted archive contains 31 records from 1854–2022. The largest coded regional group is Victoria (4), and the largest source group is Project Gutenberg (19). These distributions describe archive coverage, not real-world incidence.
