"Ghost Town" is the fifth single by rock Shiny Toy Guns, and the second single from their second album Season of Poison. The single peaked at #26 on the Billboard Alternative Songs Chart.

Music video

Shot as an animated video, it starts with a capture of an abandoned placard, which read "Welcome to Ghost Town, Population Dead." The video then continues showing the band, all portrayed as cartoon characters, singing the song. While they invade the town with their out-loud performance, zombies are seen coming out of the ground. Nearing the end, all the ghosts, including all the band's members, disappear when struck with the sunlight. The music video was directed by Glen Hanson.
