The word "spectre" originates from the Greek word "spektron," which means "visible form" or "phantom." It entered the English language through the French word "espectre," which was first used in the 14th century. The word originally referred to a wide range of ghostly manifestations, but over time it came to be more specifically associated with ghosts and apparitions.
