Scrapped Songs
A level oriented around Ghost-type Pokémon was planned at one point, but was ultimately scrapped, perhaps because it was deemed impractical, with only three Ghost-type Pokémon existing as of Generation 1 (Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar). Only Haunter would make its way into the final game, being found in the Tunnel stage. However, two songs exist for this level, both composed by Ikuko Mimori and released on her website. Below is a translation of her comments regarding the two songs:
Unused Songs Fantasic Horror comment: This is a stage song that was discarded for various circumstances. (Silent Prayer) ※Sound source is Nintendo 64. Theme of the Horror Boss comment: This is a boss stage song that was discarded for various circumstances. ※Sound source is Nintendo 64.
The music track that was intended to play in the cut Ghost level, named "Fantasic Horror".
The second music track, this one called "Theme of the Horror Boss" which was supposedly intended for some type of "boss" in the level. It is rather unclear what "boss" could refer to, as no boss fights are in the final game, aside from the Mew stage.
