Ghost train

From The Book of THoTH (Leaves of Wisdom)

A ghost train is a funfair ride, primarily designed for children. Typically it consists of a train that moves quite slowly through a darkened tunnel decorated with horror related items (e.g. models of skeletons, witches and ghosts). "Spooky" music and/or sound effects will usually be played during the ride. Typically one or more of the models will be moved by hydraulics, or some other mechanism, when the train passes by. For example, a skeleton may sit up in a coffin or a ghost may fly by.

A ghost train known as the Phantom Train is featured in the video game Final Fantasy VI.
