A Splunkin, haplessly walking about.

A Splunkin is a jack-o-lantern enemy in New Super Mario Bros. They walk left and right in World 8 courses and some of the earlier Ghost Houses. If Mario bops a Splunkin once, it will crack a bit and will gain increased speed. Another bop will make it explode. The Splunkin is a relatively small and harmless enemy, though they are sometimes found in larger groups.

Since Crowber, a raven enemy, is usually flying around, Mario may try to dodge the bird and end up getting hit by a Splunkin. Goombas wearing pumpkins on their heads appear in Super Mario Galaxy. These Goombas look a lot like Splunkins.
