Search Ghost

Search Ghosts (サーチゴースト) are enemies from Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories.

Search Ghosts are artificial Heartless created for the purpose of scouting out specific targets. After Sora defeated Jafar in Agrabah, Search Ghosts were deployed to the two closest worlds, Atlantica and Halloween Town. Some additionally entered Monstro.

Search Ghosts always have a purpose. In Monstro, they scoured out Pinocchio. In Atlantica, Ursula used them to keep an eye on King Triton. They were called for by Oogie Boogie to search for Halloween Town's keyhole. When Sora activated Dr. Finkelstein's artificial heart, they searched for that as well.

Search Ghosts are most commonly found in Atlantica.

Kingdom Hearts
''Heartless that mostly appear in Atlantica. They roam in dark areas and emit light from their eye to target their enemies. They can warp from one place to another.''

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories
A spooky Heartless.

The Search Ghost can warp out of harm's way and absorb enemies' HP, making it a tough opponent.

Trivia

 * No matter what, Search Ghosts are always the very first Heartless encountered if the player heads to either Atlantica or Halloween Town after defeating Jafar.
 * Once, Jack Skellington attempted to teach Search Ghosts how to dance (yet this would not be possible, due to their lack of lower extremities).
 * Apparently, the Search Ghosts are easier to control than any other Heartless.
 * Search Ghosts are true to their name; they only attack when someone steps into their searchlight.
