Can you explain the similarities? From the look of the board, I don't see any similarities.

The link didn't have a picture.   But the rules were almost identical to those described by the original poster.  Chances are that the board was redesigned later

I don't think that is the same game since there was [a 1998 version that has a very radically different board design](http://www.jedisjeux.net/le-fantome-de-macgregor-g-1224.html)

Bowlturner it seems as though whoever wrote up that page you're citing might have game and title mixed up. The rules described on that page are nearly identical, but the game looks exactly like https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/1326/macgregor (as pointed out by Pow-Ian). Those rules are available online and are very different from the one you're citing.

Today this game is selling under name **Король-призрак** ("Ghost King"), but the design and rules have changed a little.

As I remember it, there were 4 ghosts with the different colors (white, yellow, red and blue) and abilities.

It appears to be [Le Fantôme des Mac Gregor](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/170496/le-fantome-des-mac-gregor)
Since this one appears to have been published in 2005 this is probably a reprint and might have some rule changes.
