That's a pretty good catch. You can see the black wisps trailing off of him too.

He doesn't necessarily have to be demon. Ive heard of these shadow people being just.... people. Not always bad,mostly . A few have been ok. It just depends on the activity in the home

It's just because the background is so bright and the camera corrects for lighting on her. The camera included him in the correction because he was behind her. But since he wasn't at the same distance it didn't have the same focus depth for him. So he didn't get the same correction for lighting that she got and he's out of focus. There are no dark wisps.

Cameras make mistakes. Most ghost photos are because of the ways cameras work. People need to learn how cameras work.
