The '''Big Lantern Ghost''' is the mid-boss of [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]] from ''[[Paper Mario]]''. He is a giant [[Lantern Ghost]] with a bandage on his forehead who resides in a dark room. After being defeated in battle, Mario learns that the Big Lantern Ghost had been holding [[Watt]] prisoner inside of his lantern.
The '''Big Lantern Ghost''' is the mid-boss of the [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]] from ''[[Paper Mario]]''. He is a giant [[Lantern Ghost]] with a bandage on his forehead who resides in an extremely dark room.  


At the start of the battle, the Big Lantern Ghost cannot be attacked directly. In order to target him, the player must repeatedly attack the lantern that he holds in order to spread light through the room and render him visible for attack. Once the lantern's light is large enough, he will occasionally blow into the lantern to extinguish it and become unavailable to target again. The Big Lantern Ghost is also capable of casting a ring of light from his lantern, dealing two damage to [[Mario]] and incapacitating his partner for several turns unless guarded against. Once the player defeats him, he flees and drops his lantern, which Watt is trapped in. After freeing her by breaking the lantern, Watt joins Mario's party as his sixth partner.
In battle [[Mario]] and his partners should attack the ghost's lantern, which in turn causes the room to brighten. When the room is lit enough that the ghost can be seen, Mario and company can attack him directly. After the ghost is defeated, Mario can shatter the lantern with his [[Hammer]]. A [[Li'l Sparky]] named [[Watt]] will emerge from the lantern. After Mario frees her, Watt becomes Mario's sixth companion.

A lone Big Lantern Ghost also appears in a cave area in [[Bandit Valley]] in the game ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. It can be swallowed by Yoshi to become a [[Mega Eggdozer]] so that the nearby blockade can be cleared. Unlike the Lantern Ghost found in Paper Mario, this one doesn't have a bandage on his head.
