"Multiple pepper's ghost displays stacked up" doesn't really make sense. Pepper's ghost requires a lot of space, and it isn't really stackable.

You're right. Each display uses diffuse instead of specular reflections. That way each pixel that gets projected onto the screen shines in all directions.

It's a very similar effect except the image in projected onto the glass 'reflectors' directly.
