Jack-O'-Lantern



Jack-O'-Lantern is a ghost-like monster that uses Homing Arrow Lv 2 to damage you when close by. When further away, it'll attempt to hit you with Weakness Lv 1. Since the monsters in the area can deal a lot of damage, the latter move can be more effective on you.

In the remake, it has poor range and is easier to dodge just by staying far away. Fire Bomb is difficult for it to aim, and it's not very fast nor has a large hitbox. If you're fast enough, you can easily outrun Hot Steam Lv 1.

Trivia

 * Jack-O'-Lantern is enemy byte value 4 in the coding.
 * It shares a naming scheme with Will-O'-Wisp. In the remake, they share the same element.
 * It shares similar sprites and models with Ghost, as well as similar attacks in both versions. In the remake, they both have Fire Bomb, but different other attacks. They're also both Fire this time around.
 * Some horror shows like Goosebumps have similar kinds of monsters. Though usually it's depicted with a full body instead of an intangible one.
 * A Jack-O'-Lantern generally is just the Pumpkin itself hollowed out with a candle inside of it. This monster takes it literally by also holding a lantern.
