A ghost? This is a speck of dust sitting on a metal surface, seen close to the edge of a piece of tape - the tape is the weird lumpy surface looming over the whole scene. The ghostly figure (it looks to me a bit like a panda) may be a bit spooky, but rest assured that it’s ridiculously small. For example, we’re seeing only a tiny section of the tape’s actual height - the diameter of a single human hair, for example, would fill the entire scene.
