"Ghost of Chance" is an adventure novella written by Beat Generation author William S. Burroughs. The story was first published in 1991 in a special limited edition by the Library Fellows of the Whitney Museum of American Art; this was followed by a mass market hardcover edition in 1995 by High Risk Books and a paperback edition was published after Burroughs' death.

The novella, set in Madagascar, initially focuses on a character named Captain Mission, and is described on the back cover of the 1995 edition as being "an important story about environmental devastation".
