Ghost Rider (Daniel "Danny" Ketch) is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. He is the third Marvel character to don the identity of Ghost Rider, after Johnny Blaze (his brother, the first supernatural Ghost Rider) and the Western hero known as the Phantom Rider, who used the name in 1967.

Danny Ketch made his cinematic debut in the 2011 film Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, portrayed by Fergus Riordan.
