That is boggle.
Nonetheless, bogle or also boggle means ghost
according to this source. The verb to boggle means being startled and shying away. The whole concept also seems to be related to the bogeyman. I know that I am probably stretching the definition here and maybe native English speakers wouldn't call the pacman ghosts boggles ever, because the word is more fitting for goblins/cobolds as it seems, but pacman ghosts was the first coming to my mind.
