Spook (enemy)

A joyful Spook.

Spooks are jar-like mushrooms in Wario's Woods. They are less common than Spuds, Fuzzes and Squeaks. The most common color for them is dark blue with pink stripes, and they are very challenging to defeat as they take not one but two bombs, and Toad must act quickly to throw the double bombs at them (for they only stay vulernable after the first bomb for a limited time).

Trivia

• They resemble mushroom blocks from Super Mario Bros. 2.
• The word "spook", when used as a noun, means "ghost", and, as a verb, means "to scare". While it is certain that this word gave Spook his name, it is uncertain exactly why; it is possible that he was given a poltergeist-related name because he, like a ghost, can survive being blown up (but only once).
