The Ghost Fish are characters from the unbuilt Museum of the Weird attraction at Disneyland which have since made legacy appearances.
Background
The Ghost Fish appear to be undead skeletal fish. They would have appeared as fish that roamed around a macabre-looking aquarium to give the illusion that they are undead creatures swimming in the tank.
Development
The Ghost Fish originated from the unbuilt Museum of the Weird attraction at Disneyland. They would have appeared with many other original exhibits within the attraction. However, this attraction was ultimately scrapped.
Legacy Appearances

A tribute to the fish from the unbuilt Museum of the Weird attraction is located at the Pet Cemetery section at the New Orleans Square version of the Haunted Mansion attraction at California.
