'''Ghost Goombas'''<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/archives/land2/?lang=en English ''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins'' entry on the official Mario Portal]. ''nintendo.co.jp''. Retrieved August 13, 2022. ([https://archive.ph/xw7hA Archived] August 13, 2022, 13:51:45 UTC via archive.today.)</ref> (generically referred to by [[Nintendo Power]] as '''ghosts'''<ref>"''An unbeatable ghost zig-zags at the beginning of the stage.''" - ''Nintendo Power'' Volume 43, page 50.</ref>) are [[Boo]]-like ghosts of [[Goomba]]s found in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]''. They are only present in the [[Pumpkin Zone Level 3|third level]] of the [[Pumpkin Zone]]. True to its appearance, the Ghost Goomba is invincible and wavily floats like a Boo, but moves faster and forward like a Goomba. [[Green Shell]]s and [[Super Star|Star]]s are effective in defeating it. In the [[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|Kodansha adaptation]], they are specifically depicted as the ghosts of [[Masked Ghoul]]s.<ref>Kazuki, Motoyama.

==Trivia==
*Ghost Goombas have an unused squished sprite, indicating that they originally could have been [[stomp]]ed.<ref>A.J. Nitro. [https://www.spriters-resource.com/game_boy_gbc/sml2/sheet/3830/ Game Boy / GBC - Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins - Enemies]. ''The Spriters Resource''. Retrieved August 27, 2022.</ref>
*In a [[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|KC Deluxe]] mini-guide, Ghost Goombas are referred to as the ghost of [[Goombo]].<ref>「チビボーのユウレイが、あらわれた‼ こわいよ～。」(''Chibibo's ghost has materialized!! How scary!'') - Kazuki, Motoyama. KC Deluxe vol. 19 - ''Super Mario Land 2: 6-tsu no Kinka 1''. Page 4.</ref> In actuality, Ghost Goombas are approximately the size of regular Goombas and even slightly bigger than the game's Boos.
*A Ghost Goomba appears in the concept art of ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', suggesting they may have been planned to appear in the game somewhere early in development.<ref>https://nintendoeverything.com/new-super-mario-odyssey-concept-art-shows-a-ton-of-scrapped-costume-ideas/</ref>
