Ghost

Common Names: Ghost Cubensis, Golden Cap

About

Ghost is a hyper-potent, visually striking albino variant of Psilocybe cubensis, known for its snow-white appearance, heavy blue bruising, and extraordinarily strong psychedelic effects. Named both for its colorless visual form and the deep, ego-transcending experiences it induces, Ghost is considered one of the most powerful modern cubensis strains, delivering fast onset, vivid visuals, and complete immersion in the psychedelic state.

History

Ghost was originally developed from an isolate of Albino Penis Envy (APE)—one of the most potent cubensis strains—then selectively bred for even greater potency and mycelial resilience. While its name suggests something gentle, the experience is anything but: users frequently describe ego death, entity contact, and time distortion with even moderate doses.

It is not recommended for beginners, and should be approached with intention, preparation, and respect.

Overview

Ghost mushrooms are short and thick, with pure white caps, dense stems, and intense blue bruising. Colonization is slow but produces potent, low-yield fruits with high psilocybin and psilocin content.

The experience is visually overwhelming, emotionally purgative, and spiritually consuming, often likened to a dimensional reset or out-of-body initiation. Ideal for serious inner work, shamanic ceremony, or advanced psychonauts seeking total immersion.
