{{distinguish|[[Gloomy Gulch]], which has been officially named "Haunted Forest" on one occasion}}
'''Haunted Woods''' is the fourth and final course of [[Dragon Forest]], the sixteenth main race track,  and the final prior to [[Future Fun Land]] in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' and its [[Nintendo DS]] remake, ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]''.

The player must have at least 22 [[Golden Balloon]]s to race on Haunted Woods, and 37 to unlock its [[Silver Coin]] challenge (or 35 to unlock the Balloon Touch Challenge in the [[Nintendo DS]] remake). The stage's default vehicle is [[Car]]s, but racers can use [[Hovercraft]]s after completing the course twice or via Time Trials. The official ''Diddy Kong Racing'' website suggested racing as Timber on this track.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/19981203045708/http://www.dkr.com/haunted.html ''Diddy Kong Racing'' website (Haunted Woods)]</ref>

== Layout ==

The course immediately has a right turn that leads into a medieval village, and a fountain. There are two paths around the fountain, but they both intersect with one another quickly. The track then leads into a long passageway and a castle gate, before heading into the woods. As the driver enters the woods, they are confronted with ghostly [[Wizpig]] heads, but the track soon loops around to a bridge leading back into the castle and then the finish line.

In the DS remake, the dark sky was changed to a green canopy ceiling.
