Ghost Swordsmen

Some ghosts are equipped with various kinds of swords and possibly a shield. The first such ghost was a ghost fencer in Boku Dracula-Kun. It consists of a ghosts face with a shield in front of it and a rapier. It makes lunging attacks with its sword occasionally. In artwork, it is shown to be a broadsword and a shield with no visible ghost. A related and more advanced enemy is the Spectral Sword, which is a single possessed master sword that controls other weapons and shields through a poltergeist phenomena.
