The Ghosts That Haunt Me is the 1991 debut album by the Canadian folk rock group Crash Test Dummies. It featured their hit "Superman's Song".
The artwork featured on the cover, and throughout the liner notes, is by 19th-century illustrator Gustav Doré and is from 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner' by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The same painting would later be used for black metal band Judas Iscariot's final full length, "To Embrace the Corpses Bleeding".
The artworks on the booklet of the album are by 19th-century illustrator Gustav Doré and is from 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner' by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, except the "The Flying Man" by French novelist Nicolas Edme Restif de la Bretonne and is from 'The Discovery of the Austral Continent by a Flying Man', 1781.
Allmusic writer Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave it 3½ out of 5 stars and called it "a fine debut album by the ever-smug, collegiate, folk-pop humorists."
