Ghost Goombas[1] (generically referred to by Nintendo Power as ghosts[2]) are enemies in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. These Boo-like ghosts of Goombas are encountered in the third level of the Pumpkin Zone only. True to its appearance, the Ghost Goomba is invincible and floats wavily like a Boo, but moves faster and forward like a Goomba. Green Shells and Stars are effective in defeating it. In the Kodansha adaptation, they are specifically depicted as the ghosts of Masked Ghouls.[3]

Trivia
- Ghost Goombas have an unused sprite of them being squished, supposedly from being stomped.[8]
- In a KC Deluxe mini-guide, Ghost Goombas are referred to as the ghost of Goombo.[9] 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.[10]
