A creeper head is the head of a creeper in the form of a block. It can only be obtained by killing a creeper using a different charged creeper's explosion.

Breaking

No tool can accelerate the breaking process of creeper head.

Creeper head drops itself when it's destroyed. When destroyed by an explosion, the creeper head always drops as an item.

Mob loot

Creeper heads are always dropped by a creeper if it dies due to a charged creeper's explosion. , if multiple mobs are killed by the same charged creeper, all of them drop their heads, however only one mob selected at random drops its head.

Decoration

Creeper heads can be oriented in 16 different directions on top of a block, and 4 directions on the sides of blocks, similar to signs. They can be placed on top of, or beside each other by shift clicking.

Wearing

The player can wear creeper heads, similarly to pumpkins or helmets. This overlays the second layer of the player's skin.

Disguise

Wearing a creeper head reduces the detection range for creepers to 50% of the normal range. This is similar to (and stacks with) the reductions in detection range from sneaking and from the Invisibility status effect. , wearing a creeper head makes the player invisible to other players on a locator map.

Dispensers

A dispenser can equip a creeper head on a player, mob, or armor stand with an empty helmet slot, within the block the dispenser is facing.
