Banshee Boardwalk is a recurring track in the Mario Kart series. It first appears in Mario Kart 64 as the third track of the Special Cup.
Layout[]
Banshee Boardwalk is haunted-themed, having Boos that appear and disappear. The course is a boardwalk over haunting waters. The background is completely black when playing the game, but the icon in the menu shows that it is a haunting, dark, nighttime sky. There is a haunted house in this course, with bats that dwell inside. Also, every once and a while, a Cheep Cheep will jump out of the water and try to swallow racers whole. Bats apparently don't appear in the Time Trial mode.
There is a shortcut where you can jump over a gap inside the old building, which requires a Mushroom. It is very risky and not actually worth it, except to skip some bats.
This course is similar to the Ghost Valley courses in Super Mario Kart.
Mario Kart DS[]
Mario Kart DS version
This course reappears in Mario Kart DS as a retro course in Lightning Cup. In this version, the Cheep Cheep has been replaced with a Boss Bass, and the bats have been replaced with Swoopers.
