"Crimson Ghost" is a short, explosive punk rock track that serves as an homage to the band's famous skeletal mascot, which originated from the 1946 film serial The Crimson Ghost. Appearing on the American Psycho album, this song blends the Misfits' classic, melodic horror-punk sensibility with the heavier production of the Michale Graves era. It features a relentless, driving tempo, a catchy chorus hook, and fast, punchy guitar work that perfectly captures the mystique and menace of the villain that became the face of the band's entire Fiend Club universe.
