Class name for this type of candy (candy corn, the pumpkins, Christmas shapes of similar stuff): Mellowcremes. Often contain shellac (from insect cocoons) and carnauba wax. Also generally not vegetarian (gelatin).

I don't think those are technically mellowcremes, are they? Those look marshmallow or creme-ish filled. Mellowcremes are like candy corn or the little flat-bottom pumpkins with thick green stems on top, all solid candy of the same type all the way through, IMU, maybe a shiny coating on the outside.

I knew it was a ghost and still thought it was just a ghost sticking his tongue out until I read your post and realized it wasn't.
