In the game, Big Boos inhabit the various [[Ghost House]]s located around [[Dinosaur Land]]. They first appear in the [[Donut Secret House]]. They are four times bigger than a normal Boo Buddy in both height and width, but they still have the same mannerisms of their smaller counterparts, meaning that when looked at, they hide behind their arms, occasionally peeking to see if they are still being looked at. However, if [[Mario]]'s or [[Luigi]]'s back is turned, a Big Boo attacks him from behind. Big Boos are much more difficult to pass than their smaller brethren. As such, Mario or Luigi usually has to use a [[trampoline|Jumping Board]] to [[jump]] over them. However, if Mario or Luigi can get a [[dash|running]] start, he can usually [[Spin Jump|spin-jump]] over a Big Boo. Additionally, if there is room, the brothers can use a [[Cape Feather|Cape]] to [[fly]] over a Big Boo or perform a sliding attack during descent to defeat the Big Boo.

The Big Boo boss is a hidden encounter of the Donut Secret House. This Big Boo does not hide when Mario or Luigi is facing it, but it periodically changes from invisible to visible. It can be defeated by throwing [[Grab Block]]s at its face while it is visible. This boss does not damage Mario or Luigi, but two normal Boo Buddies accompany it. Once the Big Boo is defeated, a new path is revealed on the overworld, leading to [[Star World]]. Unlike the [[Koopalings]] and [[Reznor]]s, the Big Boo can be refought in all versions of the game.
