The term 'haunting' has been misused in recent decades. There are four classes of apparitional experiences of which one is the haunting apparition or 'haunting' for short. These are sometimes called 'residual' in modern terms. The other three types of apparitions are considered 'intelligent' or interactive in nature (and might therefore be called 'active'). The term 'ghost' originally applied only to the haunting apparitions. Over time it too has been appropriated into a more general term to describe a variety of loosely related paranormal phenomena.
