Spectre appears mainly in apparition accounts describing a visible human-like figure, voice, silhouette, or presence connected to a person or place. A substantial secondary group (3 records) comes from the “Retellings and Adaptations” archive category, so the archive does not present the label as one uniform account type. The accepted archive contains 6 records from 1898–1898. The largest coded regional group is New South Wales (1), and the largest source group is Project Gutenberg (3). These distributions describe archive coverage, not real-world incidence.
