Masked Ghoul



A Spooky Mask is an enemy in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins's Pumpkin Zone. It is a walking hockey mask with a dagger stuck in it. Its attack manner is similar to a Goomba's, although stomping Spooky Masks propel Mario upward (unlike the Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, which Goombas give Mario no extra propulsion upon being jumped on).

Splunkins and the pumpkin-headed Goombas of Super Mario Galaxy can be thought of as similar to Spooky Masks, being diminutive, Halloween-themed enemies.

Trivia

 * The hockey mask and zombie-like nature of Spooky Masks may be a reference to famous film character Jason Voorhees.
