Apologizing to the figure for bumping into him, Luigi is warned by Princess Toadstool that the figure is "the most terrible [[Magikoopa|Koopa Wizard]] in the entire [[Dinosaur Land|Dino World]], Wisenheimer". Yelling that his name is really [[Wizenheimer]], the Koopa Wizard ends up scaring Luigi and Yoshi, causing the latter to run away panicking. | Apologizing to the figure for bumping into him, Luigi is warned by Princess Toadstool that the figure is "the most terrible [[Magikoopa|Koopa Wizard]] in the entire [[Dinosaur Land|Dino World]], Wisenheimer".

Mario, Luigi, and Princess Toadstool are subsequently forced into the tube when Wizenheimer conjures-up a [[Bob-omb]] and threatens to blow up the group.

Eventually, Yoshi stops running and begins to worry about his friends and the trees and bushes roar and grab at him. Before Yoshi can track them down, though, a large Tarzan-like holler scares the dinosaur. Terrified, Yoshi runs off, only to be chased by a "monster" who was, in actuality, the missing caveboy, Oogtar. | Eventually, Yoshi stops running and begins to worry about his friends and the trees and bushes roar and grab at him.

In the basement of the haunted house, Wizenheimer begins to taunt the now shackled Mario, Luigi, and Princess Toadstool. After Princess Toadstool asks Wizenheimer why he is holding them captive, the Koopa Wizard's only response is, "Because I'm an evil Koopa Wizard, I don't need a reason to be mean and nasty. It's my nature!". Wizenheimer then leaves his prisoners, whose only hope of escape are Yoshi and Oogtar. | In the basement of the haunted house, Wizenheimer begins to taunt the now shackled Mario, Luigi, and Princess Toadstool.

Block]], which he hits, causing a pair of [[Yoshi's Wings|Magic Wings]] to pop out of the box; leaping into these wings, Yoshi gains the power of flight. With Oogtar on his back, Yoshi flutters up into the air and swoops down on the attacking caterpillar and with his sticky tongue, gobbles it up. | ||

With the ability to fly on his side, Yoshi easily finds the Warp Pipe his friends were forced down and with Oogtar, he ventures down it. Coming out of the other end of the Warp Pipe, Yoshi is horrified to discover that Wizenheimer lives in a haunted house. Deciding to leave Yoshi behind, the overconfident Oogtar begins pounding on the door of Wizenheimer's haunted house. Coming to see what the commotion was, Wizenheimer is met with Oogtar, who demands to be brought to the house's dungeon to see his friends. An amused Wizenheimer agrees to take Oogtar to the dungeon, then subsequently zaps the caveboy into chains in the dungeon. | With the ability to fly on his side, Yoshi easily finds the Warp Pipe his friends were forced down and with Oogtar, he ventures down it.
