These enemies are [[Goomba]]s that wear [[pumpkin]]s over their heads. The enemies' name and appearance are derived from {{wp|jack-o'-lantern}}s.

==History==
===''Super Mario Galaxy''===
[[File:SMG Ghostly Starting Planet.png|thumb|left|Pumpkinhead Goombas in the [[Ghostly Galaxy]]]]
Pumpkinhead Goombas made their debut in ''Super Mario Galaxy''. They can be found in the [[Ghostly Galaxy]]. They are capable of producing small blue flames in an attempt to burn [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]), yet the ability is lost when their pumpkins are destroyed. To break their jack-o'-lantern helmets, Mario must [[spin]]. [[Ground Pound|Ground-pound]]ing a Pumpkinhead Goomba, however, destroys both the pumpkin helmet and the Goomba in one pound. Once the Pumpkinhead Goomba loses its pumpkin cover, it is simply a regular Goomba. If the player ground-pounds a Pumpkinhead Goomba after it just produced a blue flame, Mario will get burned if he touches it. Also, if one tries to jump on one, the pumpkin will not break. If Mario runs into a Pumpkinhead Goomba as [[Rainbow Mario]], only the pumpkin will break.

Pumpkinhead Goombas, along with other enemies, can be seen dancing with [[Toad (species)|Toads]] in the center of [[Toad Town]] during the game's ending.

===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===

Jack O'Goombas later reappear under their current name in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. They have not changed much from the predecessor, still wearing pumpkin masks, releasing blue flames once in a while. These enemies are not limited to haunted [[galaxy|galaxies]], being found in such places as the [[Clockwork Ruins Galaxy]].

===''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''===
While Jack O'Goombas do not appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', the giant pumpkins that appear during the [[Wonder Effect]] in the course [[Upshroom Downshroom]] have carved faces that look exactly like those of the pumpkins they wear.

==Profiles==
===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
*'''Super Mario Galaxy 2: PRIMA le guide officiel''': Il s'agit de Goombas avec des heaumes en forme de citrouille. Ces méchants lâchent des petites flammes pourpres qui s'éteignent au bout de quelques secondes mais blessent Mario si elles le touchent. Pour les vaincre, Mario doit tournoyer ou frapper le casque pour exploser le Goomba. Il peut alors l'achever avec des méthodes classiques.<ref name=PGFR/> (''There are Goombas with pumpkin-shaped helmets. These villains drop small crimson flames that go out after a few seconds but hurt Mario if they touch him. To beat them, Mario has to spin or hit the helmet to explode the Goomba. He can then finish it with classics methods'')
