Obake Yashiki BGM

"Obake Yashiki BGM" is a musical theme composed for Super Mario World by Koji Kondo. It is a slower and more eerie and foreboding arrangement of the Super Mario World "Ground Theme" similar to "Castle" that plays in the game's Ghost House levels and the Sunken Ghost Ship.

Super Mario Maker
