Ghost Town is a Night-Duration card from Nocturne. It's a delayed village, doing nothing when it's played, but drawing a card and giving an Action on your next turn. It's also conveniently gained to your hand, so it can be played immediately.

Trivia
Preview
Ghost Town does another trick: it goes straight to your hand. Since the Buy phase is ahead of the Night phase, you can buy it and play it the same turn. There are several of these. Do you think you'll need a village next turn? Here you go.
Secret History
Early on the set had a village that went into your next hand. It was pretty sweet. And, separately, I had a Night card that was a village for your next turn. That was cool too; at first it had a Duchess-like rider that let you get it when you trashed an Action, but that didn't come up enough so I slimmed it down to the sleek basic effect. And then Billy suggested combining the two cards and here we are. It was a better way to implement the village - no setting it aside - and spiced up the Night card.
