Monstro Town is a cliffside town in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. It is accessible after Belome Temple is successfully cleared. The town is home to a diverse group of reformed monsters as well as a Toad woman by the name of Monstermama. Goomhilde and Jagger, who fled Bowser's Minions, have relocated here; the former is managing a store with her children, and the latter is accepting challenges with his sensei Jinx at the dojo.
Of the notable monsters, there is a Chow who keeps track of the number of Super Jumps Mario has performed, and who awards prizes at 30 and 100 consecutive Super Jumps. There is also a Comeon who tells Mario how many invisible chests are left to be found, and a Starslap who dances to a tune (which is the third song for Toadofsky at Melody Bay). Sleeping in the free bed causes the Three Musty Fears to visit Mario and send him on a scavenger hunt.
Culex, statistically the strongest boss in the game, can be encountered by using a Shiny Stone (traded in Moleville for a Fireworks) on the sealed door. However, fighting him is entirely optional.
