I would say that these are merely "shadows" of the fomer beings, not
ghosts. Though they do seem to be fully aware of their surroundings
and their past. (i.e. the Frank Bryce (is that his name?) said
something to the effect of "...so he is a wizard! He killed me, that
one, you get him boy.") So while we are sure that they aren't ghosts
we really don't know what they are.

Animagus?
This, as the previous post says, is a part of Harry that manifests
itself as the memory of his dead father because that (though Harry
doesn't realise it) is the memories of his parents which are really
that happiest he has.
(OT) I really can't picture that what's-his-name as being peeves, I
was sort of thinkig that the supernatural beings would all be
computer animated.
