Is a haunt like a spook, though?

not at all, a spook can be approximated to a moral position which has no value but that given subjectively by a person (i.e. an ego) and by extension a group of person (what Stirner called the association of egoists).
A haut is a word popularized by Derrida (you would find it in Spectres de Marx for example). It means that within something (a being, an action) there is the trace of its non-being. Derrida gives an example of that when speaking about a film where he is asked to play his own self :

Baudrillard here uses the same terminology by dialecticaly opposing technology and man (when the man is hauted by technology, then technology begins to be haunted by man).

On another level, if you want another example of hauntology you can seek it as a music genre (cf. The Caretaker or William Basinski and much more)

Not the OP, but what does Derrida mean by "non-being"?

Well that's a vast question, I'll just say that there are two possible definitions :
- Negative : by saying that non-being is the opposite (dialectically) of being. For example sight and blindness.
- Positive : which ultimately is impossible to archieve (for that see his work on the archi-trace, différance, death and the Other).

>It means that within something (a being, an action) there is the trace of its non-being.

Isn't that basically jacking what Heidegger talks about in Was Ist Metaphysik?

>>8703407
well I guess it can be interpreted in a heideggerian way since by trace of non-being you can understand the being-towards-death

I was referring to the ending of the what is metaphysics lecture. Where H says that for seiend to be grasped as seiend in the 'Lichtung' of Sein (eg the concept of aletheia, unconcealment) there must already be a movement towards Nothing. Thus the basic 'action' of Dasein is metaphysical, as in breaking/transcending seiend and pointing towards its negation. So Being is really a groundless ground.

>>8703487
yup, so we do agree on that !
