yeah it's either ghouls and ghosts or ghosts and goblins, and i think the wizard who appears randomly is the one who turns you into said frog. Super ghouls and ghosts for SNES ftw!

I think it's a duck rather than a frog. (Ghouls and Ghosts)

It's Ghosts N' Goblins, and was a secret Easter Egg in the game:

Duck down and then shoot a tombstone 15 times in a row and an angel character will appear. This angel will fire a bolt at you. Let it hit you and you'll become a frog.
