They are a type of white spherical ghost with menacing and normally open mouths. They are known for their large tongues and small stubby arms. However, the most distinctive characteristic of the Boos is their shy personality, as they cover their faces when someone looks directly at them, but then uncover and move after the character when their back is turned; this exact behavior is used by {{iw|wikirby|Mumbies}} in the ''{{iw|wikirby|Kirby (series)|Kirby}}'' series.

"Boo" Diddlys<ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario Bros. 3'' instruction booklet|page=38|date=1990|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> appear in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. They are first encountered in {{world link|2|fort|World 2-Fortress}}, and are largely found in fortress stages, though are not exclusive to them. A "Boo" Diddly shields its face if looked at, but chases the player character if not looked at. "Boo" Diddlys can be defeated only from either the effects of a [[Hammer Suit]] or a [[Super Star|Starman]], or from a [[Koopa Shell|Koopa shell]]. "Boo" Diddlys are depicted with either a dark-blue or dark-red outline in the [[Family Computer]] and [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] version, depending on the level.

"Boo" Buddies (called "Boo" Diddlys earlier in development<ref>{{cite|title=[[tcrf:Prerelease:Super Mario World (SNES)/Background Graphics and Tilemaps#Enemy Cast List|Prerelease:''Super Mario World'' (SNES)/Background Graphics and Tilemaps § Enemy Cast List]]|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=August 6, 2020}}</ref>) appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|its reissue]]. They are solely encountered in the [[Ghost House]] levels. "Boo" Buddies behave identically but move slower than before, a consistency retained throughout the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]]. "Boo" Buddies appear to have multiple tails. "Boo" Buddies change their face very briefly if looked at for long enough, and groups of them make a variety of facial expressions. More varieties are introduced in the game, including [[Block Boo|Boo Buddy Block]]s, [[Boo Buddy Snake]]s, [[Boo Crew]]s, [[Boo Buddies|Circling Boo Buddies]], [[Eerie]]s, [[Disappearing Boo Buddy|Disappearing Boo Buddies]], and the [[Big Boo]], though Stretches are absent. A "Boo" Buddy is defeated only from the effects of [[Super Star]]s or being hit by a [[Grab Block]].

Boo Buddies appear in the [[Pumpkin Zone]] levels of ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'', in addition to their introduced [[Ghost Goomba]] variants. Boo Buddies move in a slower, wave-like pattern than before. They can be defeated by a [[Koopa Shell]].

Boos (also called '''Baby Boos''')<ref>{{cite|author=Prima Bath|date=April 7, 1999|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|isbn=0-7615-2103-8|title=''Nintendo 64 Game Secrets, 1999 Edition'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide|page=84-87}}</ref> appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. They use their design from ''[[Mario Party 4]]'' in the latter version. Boos are encountered in the [[Courtyard (Peach's Castle)|courtyard]] of [[Peach's Castle]] and in [[Big Boo's Haunt]]. Big Boos are recurring mini-bosses in the latter location, as well as a different [[King Boo|Big Boo]] in the [[Big Boo Battle]] stage in the remake only. When Boos are looked at, they become partially visible, but are fully opaque otherwise and follow the player character. Boos take away two units of [[Health Meter|health]] on contact. The Boos in the courtyard hold a [[coin|Yellow Coin]] each, and those in Big Boo's Haunt each have a [[Blue Coin]]; the remake changes the former instance to [[Red Coin]]s until the player collects all eight and then the [[Power Star]]. Boos are defeated from either a [[punch]], a [[kick]], a [[Ground Pound|Pound the Ground]] attack, or [[Luigi]]'s [[Spin Jump|spin jump]] in the remake only. Boos cannot be defeated by [[Yoshi]] in the remake, and it is spit out if Yoshi attempts to do so.<ref>{{cite|author=Boo|language=en|quote=You...can't...EAT...ghosts! Eee hee hee!|title=''Super Mario 64 DS''|date=2004|publisher=Nintendo}}</ref> A line of dialogue displays each time a Boo is defeated in the [[Go on a Ghost Hunt|first mission]] of Big Boo's Haunt.<ref>{{cite|author=Boo|quote=Ghosts...don't...DIE! Heh, heh, heh! Can you get out of here...alive?|location=Big Boo's Haunt|date=1996|publisher=Nintendo|language=en|title=''Super Mario 64''}}</ref> A Big Boo appears in the hallway of the Mushroom Castle after twelve Stars are collected, or 15 in the remake, while the remake additionally features a normal Boo in the same position after eight Stars are collected, disappearing if the eight [[Red Coin]]s in the courtyard are collected and being replaced with the Big Boo either way once 15 are collected. In several missions of the remake, a Boo wearing a [[Luigi Cap|Luigi's cap]] appears in the stage.

Boos appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Normally, Boos become transparent when the player character looks at them but are opaque and go after the player character if they are not looking. There is also an underwater type that simple floats back-and-forth a short distance oblivious to the player character. A Boo can be defeated mainly from any ray of light or when touched by [[Rainbow Mario]]. Boos can be spun off course from a spin attack. Varieties that appear include [[Big Boo|Atomic Boo]] and the debuting [[Bomb Boo]]s, and there is an Atomic Boo character who is raced, the [[Spooky Speedster]]. One of the power-ups, [[Boo Mario]], has the player character become a Boo, retaining only his face and cap. Boos are attracted to Boo Mario and follow him. If a Boo hits Boo Mario, he does not take damage but does lose the power-up.

Boos appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They behave identically to their appearance in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', with both the normal and underwater types reappearing. Besides Bomb Boos returning, two variants make their debut: [[Octoboo]]s, a cross between an [[Octoomba]] and Boo, and [[Mega Boo]]s, larger than even Big Boos.

 

Boos are course elements in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its port]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They have newly designed sprites for the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' style, but are otherwise the same as in other entries of the ''Super Mario'' series. Boos can be inserted into [[Bill Blaster]]s, [[Block]]s, a [[Koopa Clown Car]], [[track]]s, or [[Warp Pipe]]s. Boos can be shaken to become [[Boo Buddies]] or dragged on to platforms to become [[Stretch]]es. Applying a [[Super Mushroom]] to a Boo changes it into a Big Boo, while giving it wings gives it faster movement. Boos in Koopa Clown Cars affect the vehicle to stop and close its eyes when looked at and sneak up on the player while they are not looking. In ''Super Mario Maker 2'', Peepas also appear in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' style, replacing Boo Buddies.

Boo Buddies are one of six types of falling objects in ''[[Yoshi (game)|Yoshi]]''. They are based on their appearance in ''[[Super Mario World]]''.

Boos, named '''Boo Hoo''' in British English,<ref>{{cite|title=''Mario Kart DS'' European English instruction manual|url=cdn02.nintendo-europe.com/media/downloads/games_8/emanuals/nintendo_ds_21/Manual_NintendoDS_MarioKartDS_EN.pdf|format=PDF|date=2005|language=en-gb|page=12}}</ref> are items, background characters in {{classic link|N64|Banshee Boardwalk}}, and cameo in portraits in [[DS Luigi's Mansion|Luigi's Mansion]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. When used, a Boo makes the user partly invisible while stealing an item from the nearest racer. Using a Boo item does not slow the user while on offroad surfaces. Boos are obtainable by racers between 3rd to 7th place. The Boos in {{classic link|N64|Banshee Boardwalk}} only let out a laugh as a player character drives by.

Boos are background characters in the course {{classic link|SNES|Ghost Valley 2}} and cameo in [[Bowser's Castle (Mario Kart Wii)|Bowser's Castle]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. In the former, they only laugh as racers drive by before disappearing eventually, while in the latter, artwork of Boo and [[Dry Bones]] from ''[[Mario Party 7]]'' is shown. King Boo has a much larger role again as a playable character.

Boos are background characters of the course {{classic link|DS|Luigi's Mansion}} and spectators on [[3DS Toad Circuit|Toad Circuit]] and {{classic link|N64|Luigi Raceway}} in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. The Boo portraits in {{classic|DS|Luigi's Mansion}} replace every portrait ghost portrait, and they push against their paintings as player characters drive nearby.

Boos are obstacles in the course [[Twisted Mansion]] in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as well as items in the latter. The Boos near the gliding section of Twisted Mansion can be landed on, and the course also has [[Hammer Knight]]s towards the end. Boos also float around in {{classic link|GCN|Luigi's Mansion}} in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' and {{classic link|GBA|Boo Lake}} in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass]]'', replacing candle Boos from the original iteration in the latter course.

Boos return during the events of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. In the original game, the English translation erroneously calls them "The Big Boo", whereas the remake simply calls them Boos. In the Japanese version, they are, in fact, referred to as Teresa as they are in other games. These Boos, like other Boos that appear in previous games, hide behind their arms when stared at. However, some Boos teleport around the room, attempting to scare Mario and his friends. Boos live in [[Kero Sewers]] along with many other ghouls, including [[Hobgoblin]]s and [[Shadow (enemy)|Shadows]]. Often, these three undead monsters will assist each other in battle. Boos have no physical defense, making them extremely weak enemies (for reference, a [[Goomba]] is the weakest enemy encountered and it has three defense points). However, Boos make up for their lack of defense with high evasion, meaning that most attacks against Boos will miss. In battle, Boos command powerful lightning magic, including the attacks [[Lightning Orb]] and [[Bolt (move)|Bolt]]. Boos also know the special attack [[Scream]], which cuts a party member's [[fear|attack and defense in half]]. When not using magic, Boos approach one of Mario's party members and make a face, damaging that character. In this game, there is also a stronger Boo variation called [[High Boo]]s, which are the same size as their normal counterparts but have blue tongues, similar to the first appearance of [[King Boo]]. The only true appearance of a Big Boo in this game is the one used in [[Bowser]]'s [[Terrorize]] attack.<ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' instruction booklet|date=1996|language=en|publisher=Nintendo of America|page=41}}</ref> One Boo lives in [[Monstro Town]] as part of the [[Three Musty Fears]].

Ghosts<ref>{{cite|quote=You'll lose points by clicking on Goombahs, Ghosts, or Bowser -- especially Bowser.|title=''[[Mario Net Quest]]''|author=How to Play dialogue|date=March 14, 1997|publisher=IBM}}</ref> are obstacles in ''[[Mario Net Quest]]'' that cost the player 1,500 if clicked on.  

Boo is a playable character in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. It is partnered with [[Dry Bones]]. Red Boos have similar roles as in ''Mario Party 6'' since Boo is playable. Boo's special orb, shared with Dry Bones, is the [[Magic Orb]], which doubles their dice roll and grants temporary invisibility and invulnerability to traps for the next two turns.

Boo is a playable character in ''[[Mario Party 8]]''. Its partner is Dry Bones again. Red Boos take the role of the Boo species once more. [[King Boo]] hosts one of the boards, [[King Boo's Haunted Hideaway]].

Boos return as enemies in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They become invisible if looked at, but if they are not looked at, Boos become opaque and pursue the player character Boos can be defeated by attacking them from behind. Boos, Dark Boos, and Atomic Boos are all featured in the minigame [[Mansion Patrol]], where the goal is to shoot them for points. After being saved from a Boo, a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] often appears to give power-ups. Lady Bow also makes three cameos.

====''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'' / ''Luigi's Mansion 2 HD''====

Boos are enemies in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'' and ''[[Luigi's Mansion 2 HD]]''. There are a total of [[List of Boos in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon|32 Boos]], all serving [[King Boo]], who returns as the main antagonist; ten of the Boos merge into the [[Big Boo]] fought in the [[Treacherous Mansion]]. The regular Boos all have names that play on "Boo," like in the previous game. Every mission has a Boo hidden in an invisible object that can be revealed only from using the [[Dark-Light Device]]. Once all five Boos are caught in a mansion, a bonus mission for it is unlocked. Boos can create [[Spirit Ball]]s, which make objects invisible, and appear from certain ones only after [[Luigi]] has vacuumed all of them in. A Boo is captured by pulling back on its tongue using the [[Poltergust 5000]] and releasing it by pressing {{button|3ds|A}}, damaging the Boo as it bounces around the room. When it reaches 0 [[Heart Point|HP]], the Boo can be forced into the Poltergust 5000 when attached to the nozzle and shoved inside by Luigi. All captured Boos are located in the Boo Canister in the [[E. Gadd's Vault#Boo Canister|Vault]], each being sent down there after Luigi returns to the [[Lab|Bunker]] from a mission.

In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], Boos mostly appear in the form of collectible items. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', a Boo appears as a collectible [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros.)|trophy]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', there is another trophy of Boo, as well as a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]] depicting its artwork from ''Mario Tennis''. In both ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', Boos once again received their own collectible trophy; furthermore, ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' gave one an item in {{iw|smashwiki|Smash Tour}}, where using it allows the player to begin a battle while invincible. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', there is a Novice-class Neutral-type primary [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] of a Boo, using its artwork from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', and it can be enhanced to [[King Boo]] at level 99. In [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: World of Light|World of Light]], the Boo spirit appears in the [[smashwiki:Dracula's Castle (World of Light)|Dracula's Castle]] sub-world of the {{iw|smashwiki|Dark Realm}}. The spirit battle takes place on the [[Mushroom Kingdom U]] stage, with an invisible grayscale [[Kirby]] as the puppet fighter.

Boos are enemies exclusive to [[Bowser's Castle]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. As usual, Boos hover in Mario and Luigi's direction when they are faced away but look away if they are looked at. For its turn, if a Boo makes a face, it targets Luigi, but goes after Mario otherwise. During battle, the Boo can attack by either teleporting in front of Mario or Luigi and to try and bite him or by flying up and swooping at him, possibly [[Prohibited Command|prohibiting the use of certain moves or items]]. The former attack can be countered with a [[hammer]] and the latter dodged or countered with a jump. Boos are weak to [[Firebrand]] and [[Fire Bros. (move)|Fire Bros.]] Boos have low HP but very high defense.

Boos are in levels 4 and 5 of [[Mysterious Mine Carts]] (levels 3 and 5 in the remake). They wear mining helmets and brandishing pickaxes. If they touch Mario, he loses a diamond. Boos slowly shrink until disappearing by pointing a flashlight at them.

There are also [[Boo Statue]]s which become invisible and cannot be interacted with when looked directly at. Mario and Luigi must use the [[Tickle]] move to push them while facing backward.

 

The [[Boo Biscuit]] item appears only in the [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|remake]]. Additionally, for the ''[[Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser]]'' mode, Boos appear as flying troopers. Their evasion can be increased from their [[Special Skill (Mario & Luigi series)|Special Skill]], Evasion Cloak, based on how much the corresponding meter is filled. Boos attack by ramming into enemies. [[Captain Boo]] is also a playable caption, and Big Boo and [[Tail Boo]] also return. As a captain, Boo can attack the other captain from behind, using [[Sneak Attack]].

During the events of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', Boos appear in [[Bowser's Castle (Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time)|Bowser's Castle]] of the past. Their [[Dark Boo]] varieties also appear, in the [[Gritzy Caves]]. Outside of battle, Boos behave the same as before, though they behave differently in battle. Before attacking, Boo chooses target either Mario if its right eye is pointed at him or at Luigi with its left eye.<ref>{{cite|author=Hoffman, Chris|title=''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' Player's Guide|page=19|date=November 18, 2005|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|isbn=1-59812-006-9|quote=If he opens his right eye he’ll attack Mario: an open left eye means Luigi will be the target.}}</ref> Afterward, Boo appears behind its target and charges, although its attack can be either dodged or countered with a jump. While battling [[Sunnycide]], if it is on its back, Sunnycide can summon a Boo to attack Mario or Luigi,<ref>{{cite|quote=When the Yoshis knock Sunnycide on its back, it'll sometimes turn out the lights and send out a Boo.|page=42|title=''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' Player's Guide|author=Hoffman, et al.}}</ref> who can counter using their hammer. While battling a [[Handfake]], if it has a [[Bowser]] sign, either Boo or a [[Fly Guy]] carries a flame from Bowser's mouth.

Boos appear in [[Bowser's Castle]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. They and the rest of [[Bowser's Minions|Bowser's minions]] have served Fawful ever since he took over the castle. One of the Boos is shown to be in love with a [[Koopa Troopa]] and vice versa if spoken to. Three Boos later force-feed Bowser lots of food after he defeats [[Midbus]], followed by Bowser becoming trapped in floor from his weight. Later on, Boos are among the brainwashed minions who push the Fawful statue against Bowser. When Bowser levels up, a Boo is shown holding the circle when choosing a bonus stat upgrade.

During the fight with [[Bowser Memory M and Bowser Memory L]], the latter has an attack of being chased around by a digital Boo. The Boo can be jumped on by either brother to stop the attack prematurely.

Boos return in [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|the remake]], as well as Boo Biscuits, which are not in the base game. Additionally, they are enemies and recruitable allies in the ''[[Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' mode. Their Special Skill is Discord, which [[SPD-Down|lowers the speed]] of enemies. Captain Boo also returns as well as Big Boo and Tail Boo.

Boos are featured in a minigame of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'' where the player has run from a Boo while avoiding firebars and bombs to save a Toad. Boos retain their usual trait of pursuing while not looked at but covering their face if they are. Boos are also seen carrying Papercraft Boos, along with Papercraft King Boo. Boos also have [[Paper Boo|paper counterparts]], which are encountered in [[Gloomy Woods]], as well as [[King Boo]]. Boo Biscuits also return from ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''.

In the [[Mario & Sonic (series)|''Mario & Sonic'' series]], Boos mainly appear in a few events, sometimes also as audience members. In the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games]]'', Boos appear as an item in [[Dream Race (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for Wii)|Dream Race]], where they temporarily follow whoever is in first place, or second if the player in the lead uses it, causing them to lose speed. It is possible for multiple Boos to follow a character at once, causing them to remain at a lower speed, but a [[High Speed]] item can remove them. In the [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Nintendo DS)|Nintendo DS version]], Boos penalize the player if they perform two consecutive fouls in the [[100m (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for Nintendo DS)|100m]], [[400m (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for Nintendo DS)|400m]] or [[400m Hurdles (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for Nintendo DS)|400m Hurdles]] events, and in [[Dream Basketball]], a Boo blocks one of the baskets if a [[Chaos Emerald]] is used. Both versions of ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games'' include Boos as part of the audience in various events. In the Nintendo DS version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Nintendo DS)|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'', Boos are items in three events: [[Ski Cross Racing]], where they can steal [[Ring (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Rings]] and items from players ahead of the user; [[Extreme Snowboarding]], where Boos steal items from opponents in front and deplete the energy in their trick gauge; and [[Ski Shooting]], where Boos will simply steal an item from an opponent if they have any. In the Nintendo 3DS version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games]]'', Boos appear in [[Archery Plus]], where they carry around the targets and disappear upon being shot.

Boo is a playable character in ''[[Mario Sports Superstars]]''. This Boo is a starter captain-type who is billed a Technique player, giving it an advantage in accuracy or horse control, except in tennis, which bills it a Tricky type. Boo's rallies curve in tennis, making the trajectory of its shots less predictable. Boo has a default drive of 213 yards and shots that travel medium-low in a draw trajectory in golf.
