Answer:
The word "specter" means ghost.
Step-by-step explanation:
The word "specter" refers to a visible spirit, to the ghost of someone who has died. As we know, in "A Christmas Carol", by Charles Dickens, Scrooge is visited by specters/ghosts whose purpose is to make him a more empathetic man. Scrooge is an old, grouchy and greedy man. But, upon being visited by three ghosts that show him his past, present and future, he ends up softening his heart.
