Squash Rockets is a tool item. It can be found inside of Haunted Halloween Gifts on Ghost Fort, or from a Pile Of Curses, during Halloween events.

When applied to a weapon, it gives the rockets a purple trail and an orange explosion. It can be applied to any of Soldier's primary weapons, with the exception of the Cow Mangler 5000 and the Rocket Jumper.

Any unused Halloween Spell items are removed at the end of a Halloween event.
