Hang Castle

Hang Castle is a medium-hard level in Sonic Heroes. It takes place in a haunted castle. This level is before Mystic Mansion and after the second Rival Team fight.

Hang Castle is one of only two stages that contains the mysterious ghost switch. Its effect in this stage is limited to flipping the stage upside down. The castle is also filled with booby traps, such as the ghosts that appear, or the invisible walkways. The Egg Magician/Egg Bishop enemy also appears here. This robot has two faces with different personalities: on the kind-looking red face, it casts a spell to heal all robots nearby, including itself; the sinister blue face can curse the ground to suck rings from anyone unlucky enough to stumble into it. It will not flip faces of its own accord, but the player can force it do so by creating a tornado in Speed Formation. A boxcar appears partway through the level. Because of their unique Light Dash ability, Teams Sonic and Dark can find trails of rings in this level.

Trivia

 * If the Eggman statue is looked at while upside down, a statue of Neo Metal Sonic can be seen, foreshadowing that Eggman isn't the real villain after all.
 * The music that plays in this stage sounds very similar to Mystic Cave from Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
