Apparition

An apparition is a visual manifestation of a spirit or ghost that appears to a person or group, often perceived as a fleeting or semi-transparent figure. These phenomena are typically associated with the supernatural or paranormal, suggesting an encounter with an entity from beyond the physical world. Apparitions can occur suddenly and may be seen in specific locations, such as haunted houses or historical sites. While often reported in various cultures and beliefs, scientific explanations consider psychological, environmental, or perceptual factors. Nonetheless, apparitions remain a compelling aspect of paranormal experiences and folklore.
