'''Gaspar''' is an obscure flying ghost-like enemy who made its first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. It operates very similarly to [[Booler]] and resembles other ghost enemies such as [[Stogue]], though Gaspar has only appeared in two games, and has not made any significant cameos in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'']] media since. | '''Gaspar''' is an obscure flying ghost-like enemy who made its first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''.

Gaspar resembles a circular ghost - much like Booler - though it also possesses a night cap, depicted as red in its official artwork. Instead of sticking its tongue out, Gaspar takes a more reserved posture, and possesses large cheek blush similar to Kirby in his later appearances. It also somewhat resembles [[Noddy]] in appearance, mainly due to its soft face and cap. | Gaspar resembles a circular ghost - much like Booler - though it also possesses a night cap, depicted as red in its official artwork.
