Soooooo, making a little movie and this ghost clip keeps re-appearing.

As you can see there is no content below the timeline marker.

It is a scene in another clip, but that clip is not supposed to be shown at this point in the production.

I've closed/opened PD a couple of times and it won't go away.

(I made the gap trying to find which clip this piece was in.)

Turn off shadow files if you have them on, and manually delete the files in pref > General. Reopen project and see if issue still occurs. If it does, copy entire timeline contents and paste into a new project and see if issue still occurs.

The clips is clearly present but it's simply on a lower track. See this post for more info.
