Turnip-Head

Turnip-Head is a cursed scarecrow who appears in both the book and movie versions of Howl's Moving Castle. In both appearances, he is a scarecrow on two cross poles wearing torn clothing with a withering turnip for a head. However, he plays a much different role in the two versions.

Howl's Moving Castle (Movie)
Turnip-Head appears to Sophie Hatter much in the same way as in the novel. While fleeing Market Chipping, she spies his main pole protruding from a shrub and lifts it out to reveal him. However, after this, his role changes.
