'''Bat Course''' is the first level of the [[Pumpkin Zone]] in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]''. This level takes place through a graveyard, although the majority of the level is set in an underground structure. According to the ''[[Perfect Ban Mario Character Daijiten]]'', the building was built long before people lived in Mario Land, and that the [[Kurokyura]] is the building's master.<ref name=Daijiten>{{cite|language=ja|publisher=[[Shogakukan]]|date=November 20, 1994|isbn=4-09-259067-9|title=「パーフェクト版 マリオキャラクター大事典」 (''Perfect Ban Mario Character Daijiten'')|page=[https://i.imgur.com/Jr5Go9J.jpeg 74]}}</ref>

The level starts out with a [[Masked Ghoul]] and a [[? Block]] containing a [[Super Mushroom|Mushroom]], with a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]] which takes [[Mario]] underground. Here, there are several [[spiked ball (Pumpkin Zone)|spiked ball]]s attached to chains which move up and down, as well as a few more Masked Ghouls. There are also four ? Blocks, the third one containing a [[Carrot]] Mario can use to become [[Bunny Mario]]. After the ? Blocks is a pipe which takes Mario to an area above-ground. If Mario chooses to stay underground, he will encounter [[falling spike]]s, another Masked Ghoul, and a [[Fire Piranha Plant|Venus Fire Trap]]. If Mario chooses to enter the pipe, he finds himself in an area with two [[Boo]]s and many [[invisible/flashing block]]s. Mario can stand on them even when they are invisible. At the top are three ? Blocks, the one in the middle containing a [[1 UP Heart|1-Up Heart]]. Mario can then enter the other pipe leading back to the underground section, taking him directly to the [[Bell (Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins)|Mid-Point Bell]].

Mario must then make it past several more obstacles until he reaches [[Kurokyura]], who can be defeated with a simple [[jump]]. Mario can also bounce off one of his bats to reach a ? Block which contains another 1-Up Heart. He is then able to reach the [[Goal (Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins)|Goal]].
