Ghost Hunters II (Japanese: ゴーストハンターズII), formerly Ghost Hunters - Treasure Panic (Japanese: ゴーストハンターズ~隠された財宝) is a Tracked Dark Ride designed by Sega AM5 previously located at Shinjuku Joypolis in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan.

History

The ride opened with the park on 4 October 1996. Initially, the attraction utilized the "Ghost Hunters II" software version[1] until being replaced with the Treasure Panic version previously seen at Tokyo Joypolis around the beginning of 1997.[2] This version of Treasure Panic featured improved visual effects and depth.[3]

Sometime after, the ride's software was downgraded back to Ghost Hunters II and remained as such until the park's permanent closure at the end of August 2000.
