==Trivia==
*A funghoul's name is a combination of the words "fungi" and "[[Wikipedia:Ghoul|ghoul]]", a type of demon from pre-Islamic Arabian mythology that is said to feast on corpses. Its name may also be a pun on the often mispronounced Italian curse word "fongool", or "vaffanculo".

A funghoul is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series.

Introduced in Dragon Quest III, it is a dim-witted mushroom monster utterly dedicated to putting adventurers to sleep with peculiar spores.

Characteristics[edit]

A funghoul is a spotted, red-capped mushroom with stalks thick enough to serve as a face and body. It has stubby arms, small feet, sad, yellow eyes, and a fanged mouth with a tongue lolling out. In some spinoff games, it is considered part of the undead family as the Obake (おばけ) in its Japanese name refers to a type of yōkai or ghost in folklore.

Trivia[edit]

  • A funghoul's name is a combination of the words "fungi" and "ghoul", a type of demon from pre-Islamic Arabian mythology that is said to feast on corpses. Its name may also be a pun on the often mispronounced Italian curse word "fongool", or "vaffanculo".
