Create the profile of a ghost that doesn’t possess a solid form, but instead appears as an ominous, irregular shadow.

This prompt challenges the idea that ghosts need to have human-like appearances. Encourage terrifying creativity by picturing a ghost that can stretch across walls and ceilings or creep under doors. Why does this ghost take the form of a shadow? And does its form give it different capabilities than a more human-like ghost?
