'''Jack-o'-lanterns''' with the faces of [[Bowser]], a [[Boo]] and a [[Shy Guy]] carved on them appear in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' during the [[Halloween Tour (2020)|2020 Halloween Tour]]. They were added throughout every course of this tour, except for [[Rainbow Road (SNES)|SNES Rainbow Road]] (and its variants) and [[Toad Circuit|3DS Toad Circuit]]. Jack-o'-lanterns that lie on the track can be knocked away by driving into them or hitting them with an item, emitting a brief Boo-like chortle when hit. They grow back in the same spot after a while. Like with [[festive tree]]s and [[kadomatsu]] from previous tours, interacting with a Jack-o'-lantern awards the player bonus points, with the action being displayed as "Trick or treat!" A number of Jack-o'-lanterns of various sizes are also found on the sides of tracks or in the background and can also be driven into or hit with a shell or [[Bob-omb]] to obtain bonus points, although they remain in place. Starting October 25, 2020, 06:00 UTC for the remainder of the Halloween Tour, interacting with a Jack-o'-lanterns of any kind also gives drivers an [[event token]].

It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information. Reason: include Super Mario Bros. Wonder information. This is both the name and the rendering of the pumpkins under the Wonder effect in-game, in the little tidbit banners that are displayed while levels load. Might be worth creating a broader "pumpkin" article, and including other franchise appearances with it.

Jack-o'-lanterns with the faces of Bowser, Boo, and Shy Guy carved on them appear as course elements in Mario Kart Tour, exclusively during tours that occur around Halloween.

Jack-o'-lanterns appear in several sizes. Smaller ones typically lie on the track and can be knocked away by driving into them or hitting them with an item, growing back in the same spot after a while. Larger Jack-o'-lanterns are found on the sides of tracks or in the background, and, when hit, they make a bobbing movement while remaining in place. Like with festive trees and kadomatsu, interacting with a Jack-o'-lantern of any size awards the player bonus points, with the action being displayed as "Trick or treat!" Additionally, when hit, Jack-o'-lanterns emit a brief Boo-like chortle, with larger ones emitting said sound at a lower pitch than the small ones. Starting October 25, 2020, 06:00 UTC, interacting with a Jack-o'-lantern also gives drivers an event token.

The only tours to have featured Jack-o'-lanterns thus far were all the Halloween Tours as of 2020, the Autumn Tour, and the Battle Tour.
