for a spirit of folklore this is probably as close to pure good you can get without being a divine entity such as an angel / deity / prophet figure.. in almost all folklore ghosts are seen as evil or neutral and thus kept at bay.. the fact this one is seen as actively protect people suggests that it may actually be working with the divine or "good" forces of the cosmos.

this isn't about personal beliefs btw, so no arguing over that petty stuff - this is just how to judge it based on general folklore.. as far as ghosts go this one is as close you'll get to "absolute good".
