"Ghosts" is a song by the English new wave band Japan. It was released in edited form in March 1982 as the third single from their fifth and final studio album Tin Drum (1981).

It reached number 5 in the UK singles chart in April. Although "Ghosts" was their biggest hit, this was not enough to stop the band splitting eight months later. Journalist Todd Hutlock called it "one of the most remarkable and unlikely entries in British chart history."
