Although trains are usually seen as fun, whimsical machines, they can be used for sinister purposes too. A Ghost Train is a train that has supernatural qualities, and is usually used to carry around ghosts or other monsters, scare people, or for other creepy purposes. This trope, often seen in folklore, usually takes the form of an old steam train with a dark, twisted appearance. It may be inhabited by a ghostly conductor and passengers, and it may have been either created by the ghosts, or a normal train that they possess for their own ends. Alternatively, the train itself may be fully sentient. It may often be seen in kid friendly works, especially those with Defanged Horrors, because in a way, it replaces the more conventional fun that trains bring with a more spooky sort of fun. May be part of a Circus of Fear, or even just associated with Creepy Circus Music. Compare Ghost Ship and Sinister Subway. See also Afterlife Express, which is for spirits going to the afterlife instead of staying on Earth, and may be more benevolent than this trope. |

Invoked in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, in the level "Ambush Maneuver". Prof. E. Gadd shrinks Luigi down so he can enter a toy train set in one mansion. After activating the train, Luigi gets attacked by a giant Boo. He must fight the boo in the train set, while the train circles around them and Creepy Circus Music plays. Ironically, though, Luigi actually uses the train to defeat the Boo, by using the big drill on its front to split the Boo into smaller Boos, then flinging them into the train cars, trapping them. | |

In Vampire Savior/Darkstalkers 3 there's the "Iron Terror", a monstrous ghost train which serves as the stage for Jon Talbain/Gallon in the game. Also this stage can be seen few stages before getting Jedah, so it's probable the Iron Terror goes to Jedah's headquarters. | |

In one episode of Thomas & Friends titled "Ghost Train", Percy tells a story about a ghost train to Thomas, but he doesn't believe him. Later when Percy goes through a farm, he accidentally crashes into a cart full of lime and gets covered in a white substance. Seeing the possibility in this, he decides to scare Thomas before he gets cleaned up in the end. In another episode Rusty tells the story about a train that fell off a bridge into a swamp after getting halfway across the bridge, Rusty says that the ghost of the train appears at midnight still trying to get across the bridge. |

The later LEGO Hidden Side theme gave us "Ghost Train Express". Unlike the previous one, this looks like a modern times derelict cargo train. Its face consists of patterns on front windows looking like its eyes, and a hidden jaw that it can open. On top of that, it has wings and is driven by a driver possessed by a ghost. Spooky. | |

The Phantom Express from Cuphead is a creepy living train who carries a ghost with eyes on the palms of its hands, a giant skeleton conductor, and two lightning-shooting pistons through a dark forest. Once you've fought all four of the train's crew, the engine, dubbed the Head of the Train (his exact name) himself becomes furious and chases after you to commence the final phase of the fight. | |

Mentioned in passing in one Skulduggery Pleasant short story, in which Valkyrie asks Skulduggery if there are such things as ghost trains, given that the death they are investigating left a body looking like it had been hit by a steam train and turned into sauce all over the living room, with some neighbours claiming they heard a train pass through the place, though there are no holes in the walls. The answer is yes, but they cannot harm anyone the culprit turns out to be a magic pen which makes you write out a custom death scene, then kills you by making the scene happen, irrespective of how impossible it would be. The viewpoint character has to be rescued by the heroes from being eaten by a shark in the victim's living room. | |

Doomtrain in Final Fantasy VIII is a secret Guardian Force acquired through a sidequest vaguely hinted at by some in-game magazines. It appears as a steam train with a ghoulish looking face sticking out of the front, and its summon attack, Runaway Train, has it crash into enemies, inflicting poison damage and Status Effects. Its original Japanese name was Glasya-Labolas, as in the President of Hell, meaning it's a demon who just happened to take on the form of a ghost train in this universe. | |

In Twilight Syndrome, one of these appears in "The Last Train" and "Reverse Town", appearing late at night in a train station that's implied to be Holy Ground and hosts various supernatural occurrences at night, when all the living people have left. The train is announced as being bound for "Dusk Hill", and the platform controller who appears alongside it arbitrarily jacks up the ticket price from one minute to the next. Taking a picture of the platform while it is there reveals a multitude of disembodied spirits boarding it when it is developed later, and allowing Mika to board the train will result in her turning up later as a Soulless Shell. The reason for these occurrences comes up later in the "Reverse Town" chapter, where the eponymous Afterlife Antechamber the girls are transported to is shown to have a train station which Chisato and Mika are able to use to return to the living world, strongly implying the train from the earlier chapter to be an Afterlife Express that connects there. | |

The Night Train from Deadlands is used by the feral Nosferatu vampires to travel around at day (through the tracks of the undead-friendly Bayou Vermillion railroad) and find new victims at night. It's not alone. The Union Pride was attacked by Confederate cavalry and crashed into a years-long fireball, due to being fuelled by ghost rock; in the D20 edition, the train may end up puffing into town one night and the ghosts of the soldiers will come out and do much the same thing as the Night Train vampires. And there are more; the supplement Saddle Sore has the Nightingale, which picks you up from a legitimate railroad station and leaves you at your destination after messing with your PCs, and leaves you at a closed station with no-one expecting a train at that time. It soon becomes apparent that you just fell for the old Phantom Trucker routine. |

Red Dead Redemption 2 has a pretty creepy ghost train that pops up as an easter egg. The first game seemed to feature one as a glitch or development oversight - you move down a train as it's moving until you get onto the footplate, which is completely unoccupied, but the train pulls into a station and stops by itself anyway. |

In one episode of Hey Arnold!, Arnold and his friend investigate the Legend of Engine 25, about a train piloted by a mad engineer which takes its passengers to the fiery heart of the underworld. It turns out be a Double Subversion: There's a real Engine 25, an industrial train that stops at a steel mill, and all the supernatural phenomena Arnold witnesses have perfectly rational explanations, but after Arnold concludes it's an urban myth, the audience is shown the train leaving the steel mill with the ghost of the engineer riding on its front. | |

Five Go Off To Camp has a sinister 'spook-train' that runs at dead of night and disappears into its tunnel without reappearing at the other end. In the end the phenomenon proves to have a rational explanation. | |

Control has a variation of this in the AWE DLC: the Eagle Limited Train Car is an altered item created from the aftermath of a supernatural terrorist incident that caused it to derail, killing 60 passengers and injuring many more. The twist is that it's not malevolent nor haunted by the deceased — the train itself formed a sort of sapience from the incident and has been so consumed with guilt that its interior has become an odd Pocket Dimension, reliving its own crash over and over again. | |
