I've never had a camera that would do an in-camera double exposure but a friend has one. It's probably a print camera? He wants to know if he wants one person to look like a ghost, should he have the person in the first or the second shot?

I have and have had several digital cameras that performed multiple/double exposures. They don't always do it the same way; some give you choices that would affect they manner of overlay. If you are dealing in film, it is a simple matter of knowing that lighter things obliterate darker things. More or less. The order won't matter; what will matter is how much you up or down the exposure of each frame.

I've been remiss in not coming back to thank you for your excellent and prompt response, tnun In fact, I saw and passed it along almost immediately. I didn't respond at the time as I thought there might be others with something to add.

Yes, it is possible, here you can see an example where I have tried to explain how I did it. See if this help!

It's also possible to get a double-exposure if your camera has a bulb mode and you cover/uncover the lens manually while keeping the shutter open.

This is what General is referring, this is in camera setup and cover of sensor:
