Squash Rockets is a tool item. When applied to any of the Soldier's rocket launchers, any rocket fired by the weapon gains a purple trail and an orange Pumpkin Bomb explosion.

Casting certain Magic spells while equipping a weapon enchanted with this item causes the effects of the weapon's spell to carry over to the Magic spells, specifically the changes in projectile and explosion effects. The projectiles of the Magic spells Fireball, Tesla Bolt, and Meteor Storm gain a purple smoke trail, while the explosions of projectiles from the Magic spell MONOCULUS become orange Pumpkin Bomb effects.

Prior to Scream Fortress 2015, it could be found during Halloween events inside of Haunted Halloween Gifts on Ghost Fort or from a Pile Of Curses.
