Kritter-in-a-Sheets are only in the game ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', and are quite rare. They are only found in the area [[Creepy Castle]]. A Kritter-in-a-Sheet has the same basic fighting style as a normal kritter--they bite and punch. A Kritter-in-a-Sheet can be defeated by throwing an [[Orange Grenade]] at it, blasting it with a weapon or by simply pummeling it.
Ghosts are uncommon enemies that only appear in [[Creepy Castle]]. They try to attack the active [[Kong]] by simply running at them. Unlike other enemies, Ghosts do not respawn often unless the Kongs re-enter the stage. When a Ghost sees the active Kong, it makes a sound and slowly charges at them. Ghosts share their weakness with Kritters and take a single hit to defeat.


Sometimes a Kritter-in-a-Sheet will appear to harrass the Kongs in their battle against the Creepy Castle boss [[King Kut Out]].
During the boss fight with [[King Kut Out]], some Ghosts spawn in the center stage each time King Kut Out is hit. Although Ghosts serve as a distraction, the Kongs can still defeat them for slices of [[Watermelon]].
