The Train Ride Specter attacking Donkey Kong.

The Train Ride Specter is a large skeletal demon/ghost found in Donkey Kong 64.

The Train Specter is found in the Ghost Train Ride, a mini-quest in the area Creepy Castle. After Donkey Kong uses his Gorilla Grab on several levers in the Skull Cave he will gain access to the Ghost Train Ride.

The Train Ride Specter will attempt to attack Donkey with its disembodied claws, each hit from this ghastly specter will cause Donkey Kong to lose some of the coins he has collected. The Train Ride Specter can not be hurt in any way; Donkey Kong must avoid its slashes and punches by jumping from rail track to rail track. It'll also fire some Skull Carts, which carry TNT Barrels when Donkey Kong reaches an area with three rails that are next to each other.

If Donkey Kong manages to collect twenty-five coins and finish the Ghost Train Ride, he will gain a Golden Banana.

Trivia

  • The Train Ride Specter is somewhat similar in appearance to a Kackle, another ghostly skeletal Kremling.
