Ghosted motion

Usually seen in semi/pseudo slow motion scenes to make something seem to move even faster than they are (motion blur) or seem somehow supernatural when there's nothing else there to indicate it. Ghosting ahead of the actual thing especially would indicate supernaturalness. Usually these actually Do nothing, though in some instances the ghosts may add a repeat action of same or lesser power/efficiency.

If the ghosting is numerous enough or the blurring slow enough, especially if it's shown ahead of the actual thing, it may start giving the false impression of the character or whatever being everywhere at once.
