The Goblin
From Homestar Runner Wiki
The Goblin is a green, armless creature who appears in Halloween episodes. An organ tune plays when he shows up, and he does a short dance. The movement of his feet when dancing is very similar to Leg Movement #1 in the Dancin' Bubs game. The Goblin seems to be the only inhabitant of Free Country, USA who has visible ears.
The Goblin was created when Homestar Runner started telling a pass-along Halloween story in Homestarloween Party. He made appearances in all of the major Halloween toons, except for The House That Gave Sucky Treats, Halloween Fairstival, and the ones released in between Most in the Graveyard and Later That Night....
By virtue of Bubs's addition to the pass-along story, he is also the owner of a '73 Gremlin. He's found hanging out under it in the Spooky Woods in Where's The Cheat?. The Rocoulm, who claims the Goblin has "serious problems", refuses to entertain him. He may be married to the Rocoulm, as revealed in Later That Night....
In Most in the Graveyard, Homestar is convinced that finding the Goblin at midnight will allow the Goblin to spin their candy into gold. The Goblin also saves Homestar and Pom Pom from the Carnivorous Undead Sheep and dances to a much funkier beat.
