it's definitely a prank, seems too "scary" to be taken as true, it just so happens to be in the most shadowed area and knows exactly where the camera is, if it was real, the "ghost" surely wouldn't look at the camera and just go about the average business. personally ghosts are just alload of bullcrap to me just a myth.

Looks a bit too much like a reflection/projection originating from somewhere behind the cam I´d say.

I thought it was a phone ap at first but now it just looks like some video edit.

after effects against a green screen video desaturated and the composition within a composition at 75 % opacity and obviously used a mask at the bottom as her body has a slight glow and yet nothing below the knees show. Yes you can mask in after effects just like photoshop. Also it may not even been someone against a green screen the whole shadow area seems a bit to dark and square I know it is a door frame but it could quite easily be a video put in a video using the door frame as the frame shot against a black background but when the video had layer opacity reduced they used colour correction to enhance the blacks. However it is very clever yet would be simple to achieve as it is cctv camera so no movement you could literally put many videos in the same composition without masking to much as there is no camera movement.
