The look

What Ghost does

Ghost turns a keyed subject into a spectral apparition, pale and see-through with wispy edges that dissolve into the air and a soft aura around them. It runs entirely on the GPU as a real After Effects, Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve effect, so you get a live, render-accurate preview while you work.

Dial transparency, tint, edge dissolve, flicker, and after-image echoes to land anywhere from a faint presence to a fully haunting figure, or start from a preset. Every control is keyframable, so you can fade a ghost into the frame, flicker it, or let it trail behind itself as it moves.
