That's the spirit! (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

genie

ghost

(Other definitions for genie that I've seen before include "Goblin as found in Aladdin's lamp" , "Spirit with the power to grant wishes" , "Arabian goblin with strange powers" , "Magic spirit" , "Spirit in a bottle" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
