In this installment of the Toei Company's long running Kamen Rider series, Takeru Tenkuji, a young boy living in a small temple, is killed by a monster from another dimension on his 18th birthday and comes back to life as Kamen Rider Ghost with the goal of collecting 15 Heroic Eyecons so that he can use their power to come back to life. When he encounters interdimensional invaders and finds that his childhood friend Makoto is also trying to collect Eyecons with the goal of restoring his sister's body, Takeru finds that the afterlife may be a bit more complicated then he thought.
