The '''Forest of Illusion''' is the fifth [[world]] in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. It is the eastern portion of [[Dinosaur Land]] and is part of the same landmass as [[Cookie Mountain]], which is the northeastern part of the map. The forest contains one fortress, one [[Ghost House]], one [[Star Road (Super Mario World)|Star Road]], the [[Blue Switch Palace]], and many secret paths.


==History==
This world is unique in that beating the regular exits will only take the player in a circle, hence its name. To find the way out of the forest, the player needs to find the secret exit in one level. Forest Secret Area, #5 Roy's Castle, and Forest Fortress are the only [[level]]s without multiple exits. When any level is beaten, in addition to a path appearing, trees will disappear.

Forest of Illusion is the fifth world of ''Super Mario World''. It has one [[fortress]], one [[Ghost House]], one [[Star Road (Super Mario World)|Star Road]] leading to [[Star World 4]], and the [[Blue Switch Palace]]. Forest of Illusion has many secret paths, and it is unique in that finding the regular exits only takes the player in a circle, hence its name. To find the way out of the forest, the player needs to find the secret exit in one level. [[Forest Secret Area]], [[5 Roy's Castle|#5 Roy's Castle]], and [[Forest Fortress]] are the only [[level]]s without multiple exits. When any level is beaten, in addition to a path appearing, trees disappear.
 
A world in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' known as [[Soda Jungle]] features a similar haunted area. In this area, the player must beat a level via the secret exit to create a pathway that will allow the player to proceed through the world.

The Forest of Illusion, renamed the '''Enchanted Forest''', is featured in the episode "[[Ghosts 'R' Us]]" from the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' animated series]], where it is the main setting and the greater location of [[Wizenheimer]]'s [[haunted house (Super Mario World television series)|haunted house]].

Similar forested areas are also seen in the episodes "[[King Scoopa Koopa]]", "[[The Yoshi Shuffle]]", and "[[Mama Luigi]]", appearing closer to Forest of Illusion's in-game appearance. The distinctive trees with faces also often appear in the background in several episodes. Here, they more closely resemble coconut trees, and their faces lack cheeks. In "[[Party Line]]", one of the trees is used to send the [[Wiggler|caterpillar]]s into space.
