Creepy

A Creepy is a worm-like enemy from Donkey Kong 3. They cannot be killed, so when Stanley the Bugman sprays them they stop and swing back and forth. In blue and gray greenhouses, one crawls along the platforms at the bottom of the screen. If he is sprayed enough before reaching the platform, Creepy can be tricked into climbing up the vine for a short time. In a yellow greenhouse, three Creepies traverse the vines above Stanley and try to block his bug spray. Other enemies related to Creepy include Beespys, Buttiflys, Beetles, Moths, Buzzbees, Beebombs, Vine Eaters, and Queen Bees. Excluding ports and remakes, Creepies have not appeared in a new game since Donkey Kong 3.
