Ghost trains have a long and storied history in pop culture. From the titular 1943 film to that scene in Ghostbusters II where Winston gets ambushed by one, there's something about phantom trains that is just...unnverving. Dovetail Games wants to create the next big ghost train/haunted train story, and has released a new DLC pack for Train Simulator 2015 just in time for Halloween.

"The Count of Monster Disco is looking forward to the Halloween Party he holds every year at Trainsylvania Mansion for his frightful friends. As the monstrous driver of The Spirit of Halloween steam train, help this horrible host organize his fright night.
Explore the route to pick up Halloween decorations, wagons filled with monster snacks and carriages of ghoulish passengers. Deliver them to Trainsylvania Mansion (get it? Trainsylvania!), and make this a Halloween Party to remember! But only if you dare...

The DLC pack comes complete with an all new route specifically decked out in cartoony Halloween ghoulishness, so it will be fun for the home family. You will gain access to the Spirit of Halloween train, which comes bundled with its own locomotive, wagons, coaches, a driver named Frankie and if there was a just deity, its own murder mystery.
The Count of Monster Disco is available now on Steam for $9.99, but for the next two weeks will be on sale at 50% off. If you don't want to commit to the full Train Simulator 2015 package, the DLC is available as its own standalone title. Force the poor souls to wander forever, getting picked up and dropped off at a party that WILL NEVER END.
Truly terrifying.
