A Brocken spectre is a weather phenomenon where an observer's shadow, cast onto clouds or mist, appears magnified and surrounded by a halo of light.
It's essentially your own shadow, projected in front of you, appearing ghostly due to the optical illusion of perspective and the effect of sunlight interacting with the water droplets in the mist.
