You know, there is a test to see if the apparition is demonic.
Ask for an embrace; if they embrace you with your hands and theirs around the waist, it’s friendly.
If around the shoulders like a lover, it’s a demon.
I’m iffy about the friendliness of ghosts mainly since, if Heaven is so great, why leave Heaven to come to Earth? In fact, given that Sheol is such a horrific place, it makes sense that a soul doomed would prefer to mingle on Earth, since Earth is as close to Heaven as they’ll get.
Again, demons are smart and it’s just a few simple small tests to be sure.
“Jesus said something like Do you think Im a ghost!? Do ghosts have bodies? See the holes in my hands.”
Exactly; even Jesus let Thomas test his hands to prove Himself that He was truly who He said He was.
Jesus also proved His bodily Presence when He asked, “Have you got anything here to eat?” And the disciples gave Him a piece of cooked fish, which He took and ate in their presence.
“You know, there is a test to see if the apparition is demonic.

How do you know this?
