'''Hobgoblins''' are [[:Category:Undead|undead]] enemies that inhabit [[Kero Sewers]] in the game ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. They wear ragged clothing and carry lanterns, making them resemble the [[Lantern Ghost]]s from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. Hobgoblins also slightly resemble [[Scarecrow]]s. These enemies never fight by themselves; they always accompany other enemies like [[Rat Funk]]s, [[Boo#Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|The Big Boo]] or [[Shadow (enemy)|Shadow]].

In battle, Hobgoblins attack by clawing their opponents. Additionally, Hobgoblins can use a number of magic spells that cause status ailments. One such attack is [[Dark Claw]], which [[Poison (status effect)|Poisons]] one of [[Mario]]'s allies and causes 50% more damage than their normal claw attack.<ref>[http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/snes/file/588739/30935 Super Mario RPG Battle Mechanics Guide] by newmansage.  "Enemy Skills" section.</ref> The other is [[Elegy]], which [[Silence]]s a party member, making them unable to perform special attacks. Since they are undead, Hobgoblins can be instantly destroyed with [[Pure Water]].

Hobgoblins are considered the relatives of the [[Straw Head]]s from the [[Sunken Ship]].
