'''Falling Spikes''' are spiked obstacles that fall from ceilings, and were introduced in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' (although the [[Icicle]] from ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' can be considered a precursor). They are found only in [[Castle]]s and [[Fortress]]es, and are typically grouped together amongst standard [[Spike (obstacle)|Spikes]]. They are slightly off-color compared to normal Spikes. Unlike Icicles, Falling Spikes will remain on the ceiling until [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] approach one, which will trigger it into falling, similar to a [[Thwomp]]. Once it falls, a Falling Spike will continue to fall through the floor until it disappears. They are darker in color than normal spikes.

Falling Spikes are spiked obstacles that fall from ceilings, and were introduced in Super Mario World (although the Icicle from Mario Bros. can be considered a precursor). They are found only in Castles and Fortresses, and are typically grouped together amongst standard Spikes. They are slightly off-color compared to normal Spikes. Unlike Icicles, Falling Spikes will remain on the ceiling until Mario or Luigi approach one, which will trigger it into falling, similar to a Thwomp. Once it falls, a Falling Spike will continue to fall through the floor until it disappears. They are darker in color than normal spikes.

They also appeared in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins in the Pumpkin Zone and Mario's Castle.
