Living Mushrooms are fungal creatures that used to live under Camp Opinicon. They come from the planet Flors Verdance, which can spit out alien seeds to make more mushrooms.
Appearance
The Living Mushrooms have one or more mouths (often at odd angles), as well as vine-like tongues.
History
After emerging from underground, they overrun Camp Opinicon, capturing most of the staff and campers. The camp luckily had a large quantity of anti-athletes foot powder due to them constantly getting athlete's foot. Ben Tennyson killed the Mycelium with the powder, which killed the Living Mushrooms.
Weaknesses
Living Mushrooms are vulnerable to anti-athletes foot powder.
If the Mycelium is killed, all the Living Mushrooms will die too.
Appearances
Ben 10
Season 2
- Camp Fear (first appearance; death)
Trivia
- The mushrooms are similar in appearance to the Matango, mushroom creatures mutated by radiation that appeared in the 1963 Japanese film of the same name.
- Matango was based loosely on the 1907 short story The Voice in the Night by William H. Hodgson, which featured a similar concept regarding mushroom creatures attacking a group of explorers on an island.
