Kamen Rider Ghost (仮面ライダーゴースト, Kamen Raidā Gōsuto) is a Japanese tokusatsu drama serving as the 17th Heisei Kamen Rider Series, and 26th series overall. Takuro Fukuda serves as Ghost's lead screenwriter, with Satoshi Morota as director. It premiered on TV Asahi and affiliate stations throughout Japan on October 4, 2015, one week following its predecessor series Kamen Rider Drive's finale. It joined Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, and later, Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger in the Super Hero Time programming block.

The motif of the series is centered around ghosts, historical figures, and eye-based themes. The series focuses on the protagonist, Takeru Tenkuji, who becomes Kamen Rider Ghost after dying and being temporarily resurrected. He is tasked with collecting Eyecons, which contain the spirits of famous historical figures such as Thomas Edison, Isaac Newton, Musashi Miyamoto, Ludwig von Beethoven, and more.
