- “This castle belongs to me now. All trespassers in my castle… shall fall!”
- —Phantom knight, Princess Peach: Showtime!
The Phantom Knight is a boss appearing in Princess Peach: Showtime! in the level The Ghostly Castle. Overall, he is the fourth boss encountered in the game.
At the start of the level being one of the members of Sour Bunch, he took over a castle in The Ghostly Castle and summoned phantom Sour Bunch minions. Disliking Swordfighter Peach's persistence to save the Theets, he controls the objects and the platforms in the castle to fall.
As Peach showed up where the phantom knight held three Theets hostage, the phantom knight starts the battle against Peach. Swordfighter Peach can defeat phantom knight thrice in battle. In the first phase of battle, phantom knight will choose either side of the wall where he will show up to attack Peach; Peach can dodge the attack and counterattack. In the second phase of battle, phantom knight controls the tiles to fall which Peach must evade, along with the chandeliers and treasure chests to fall under Peach with an exception of one spot where Peach can avoid being harmed; however, Peach can damage the falling objects. In the third phase, phantom knight also summons phantom Sour Bunch bats from the wall heading straight. Peach can choose to avoid getting hit or damage the enemies. Upon defeat, the phantom knight fades and the three Theets are freed from his clutches. The castle lights up back to its normal state and a Sparkle Gem is rewarded, completing the level.
