An underwater stage taking place in an abandoned ship, this stage has water and while some are able to swim like Knuckles and Rouge which controls similarly to Sonic Adventure 2, some characters must avoid it entirely or they will sink to the bottom of the water with little time to escape before drowning. As the name suggests this ship is also haunted, some ghosts chase you while hide and pop out at you, stunning you.
====Egg Plant====
A stage that takes place inside Doctor Eggman's base which also happens to be inside a volcano, there are various lava pits and flames that must be avoided. The stage even includes a rising lava section leading up to Doctor Eggman's headquarters which is also the end of the stage before leading into a boss fight.

Landmarks of this area include Tails' house, Vanilla and Cream's house and the Chaotix Detective Agency, these places offer various sidequests.
The second is a forest area, there are less people than the city and the area is very open. This area is used as a base for the stage "Mystic Forest". Here you can find Big's cabin where Big will offer you various sidequests.
