{{quote|Oh, man… Hooktail Castle… The stories were all true… This place is TERRIFYING…|Koops|Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door}}
'''Hooktail Castle''' is a location that is found during the events of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' in Chapter 1. Although not explicitly stated, it is the first major dungeon in the game, as it takes place in a closed location. It is the castle where [[Hooktail]], the dragon who is terrorizing [[Petalburg]], is fought and resides. [[Mario]], and his [[partners]] — [[Goombella]] and [[Koops]] — travel here to defeat Hooktail and collect the [[Diamond Star]]. The castle is full of many traps and enemies that Mario and his partners must avoid and defeat. The enormous rooms in the castle provide a resting place for some of the Koopas that have fallen victim to Hooktail's ways — however, not all of the skeletons found throughout the castle remain in an eternal rest.

The in-game map description reads, "''A massive castle built to accommodate Hooktail's bulk. It's full of lethal traps.''"
==History==
===Background===
According to stories told by [[Grifty]], Hooktail Castle was built long ago in order to harbor one of the [[Crystal Stars]], which had been scattered throughout the land to exert the [[Shadow Queen]]'s power. Since the castle was built to "accommodate Hooktail's bulk", it is likely that Hooktail, being one of the Shadow Queen's pets, was tasked with guarding the Crystal Star by her master and given Hooktail Castle to live in while doing so. Alongside containing traps to prevent potential thieves from reaching Hooktail and the Crystal Star at the top of the castle, the castle contains torture devices such as the [[wikipedia:Rack (torture)|rack]], a [[wikipedia:Flail (weapon)|flail]], and a ball-and-chain. There are also many prison cells in the castle. As such, it is possible that Hooktail Castle was additionally utilized to imprison and torture enemies of the Shadow Queen, not dissimilar to her [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]].

Following the Shadow Queen's sealing behind [[the Thousand-Year Door]], one of the [[List of implied characters#Four heroes|four heroes]] travelled to Hooktail Castle and transformed into a [[black chest]] after losing the Diamond Star they had in their possession. Hooktail got ahold of the Diamond Star and began guarding it in her castle, just as she had done with the Crystal Star she had before. 

At some point, [[Korvallis]], [[Kolorado]]'s father, decided to travel to Hooktail Castle to defeat the dragon, but only made it to the second room past the front door before dying. 10 years prior to the events of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', [[Koopley]] would aim to do the same. While he was much more successful in his quest compared to Korvallis, managing to make it all the way to Hooktail, he ultimately lost the battle with her and was eaten.

===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
{{PMTTYD map}}
[[File:PMTTYD Hooktail Artwork.png|thumb|left|Hooktail, the guardian of the castle.]]
When Mario and Goombella first arrive in [[Petal Meadows]], they see Hooktail flying to Hooktail Castle, as well as a stone structure that looks like a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]. The pipe, which leads into the background of the castle, is accessible after placing the [[Sun Stone|Sun]] and [[Moon Stone|Moon]] Stones from [[Shhwonk Fortress]] into the nearby pedestals. At the start, there is a [[Recovery Block]] and a [[spring]] which leads to a [[plane panel]], allowing Mario to fly across the ensuing moat in [[Plane Mode]]. A garden with a broken bridge appears under the plane panel. This garden hovers above a moat, and at the end of it, Mario can collect an [[HP Plus (badge)|HP Plus]] badge when using Koops. After soaring across the moat, Mario reaches a set of purple doors that lead to the center of the castle.

Inside the area, there are many [[Koopa Troopa]]s and [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s and a [[Power Bounce]] badge within a red [[? Block|? block]]. In the next room, there are skeletons of Koopas and the skeleton of Korvallis, which clutches a note addressed to Kolorado containing a warning about Hooktail and her weaknesses and his last words. At the far end of the room, there is a [[Red Bones]] that guards the doorway to the next room. When it is awakened, the room becomes flooded with [[Dull Bones]], and Mario and his partner are pushed away from the door, though the Red Bones battles Mario if it is hit by a [[hammer]]. After defeating the Red Bones, Mario can gain access to the next room.

In the next few rooms, there are more [[Dull Bones]] and a [[Shine Sprite]] in their path. A red [[Castle Key (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Castle Key]] is needed to unlock a locked door after passing through the rooms. It is on a high platform that can be accessible from [[Lift Switch]]es that cause arrow-imprinted blocks to go up and down. Mario can use Koops' Shell Toss ability to hit the switches while he jumps up blocks. The purple block leads to a square-shaped hole in a wall with a Star Piece on a ledge. By [[jump]]ing on two [[Stone Block]]s, Mario can reach a big black and yellow block that leads to a wall ledge and a Star Piece. With the black and yellow block up, Mario can use Koops to hit a red [[! Switch]] to flip a nearby staircase to the other side, allowing Mario to grab the key via Koops' shell. After this, Mario and his partner can reach a Save Block and a large green block that goes up.

After some travel, they reach a room with a few Dull Bones and a [[Paragoomba]] and a cell, which can be raised by pressing a red ! Switch. The cell leads to a room with a [[black chest]]. After collecting the [[Black Key]] in a chest at the room to the right, spikes pop out of the ground of the room forming a maze. The ceiling is also covered in spikes and lowers towards the ground, which will [[Game Over|crush Mario and his partner]] if they do not escape within 50 seconds. After unlocking the chest, the being inside the chest curses Mario, allowing him to turn paper-thin and squeeze into narrow spaces. He can then reach the [[Attack FX R]] badge ([[Attack FX G]] in the remake) in the prison cell to the left.

After reaching the second level of the castle by a big green block in the fourth room of the previous area, there is another locked door. The second key is located in a cell room with Kolorado's dead father in it and requires [[Paper Mode]]. After unlocking the door, there is a [[Recovery Block]]. There is also a switch that causes a bridge to appear. Mario can use Koops to hit the second switch and create another bridge, and they can use a window that does not have any bars on it to pass through the third gap, which is low enough to jump through, and a Star Piece can be found behind the windows at the start. Mario can also jump through the other window and enter the west door. Later, there is a room with many Dull Bones and another large green block on the ground. Mario can use Koops again and reach the third level. A [[Life Mushroom (Paper Mario series)|Life Mushroom]] can be seen on a ledge on the left wall and it can be collected if Mario drops down from the third level in front or behind the bars. 

[[File:Mario in the Castle.png|thumb|Mario leveling up in a battle in Hooktail Castle]]
After meeting a mysterious thief named [[Ms. Mowz]] that came to the castle to steal rare badges in the treasure room, she leaves out the window after chatting with Mario and giving him a kiss. In this room, there is a Mushroom, a [[Honey Syrup]], and a key in the chests. After unlocking a door, Mario progresses further up the castle. Mario and his partner can then enter a room with Dull Bones at the bottom, a plane panel at the top, and big black and yellow block that allows Mario to elevate up to the two ceiling ledges. On the ceiling, Mario can obtain a Star Piece at the east end. To obtain a key, Mario can hit a yellow block to move the large black and yellow block downward, then Koops can be shot at the key. If Mario goes down a gap in the room, he can obtain the [[Last Stand P]] badge. 

After unlocking a locked door and collecting a Shine Sprite, Mario must go up two flights of stairs and travel across the outside ledge of another room. Mario and his partner then reach a long bridge with Koopas that leads up to a tower with a [[Spiked Goomba|Spiky Goomba]] on duty. At the top of this tower, there is a [[Save Block]], [[Recovery Block]], and an enormous pair of purple doors. Through these doors, Mario and his partners encounter Hooktail, and after she is defeated, Koopley is spat out of her, and he gives Mario the [[Diamond Star]].

Once Hooktail is defeated, [[Koopook]] will post a trouble at the [[Trouble Center]] asking participants to find him in Hooktail Castle. If Mario locates him on the ledge near the green elevator block, he will reward Mario with the [[Special Card]]. Once Chapter 4 is cleared, Ms. Mowz will anonymously post a trouble to find an [[Attack FX B (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|elusive badge]]; doing so has Ms. Mowz join Mario as a partner. After [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 5: The Key to Pirates|Chapter 5]], [[Merlon]] will tell Mario and his partners about a fortune he had received, which told of a room hidden in Hooktail Castle. If Mario and his partners return to the room with the spikes and blast a large crack in the right wall with [[Bobbery]], they can find an [[Up Arrow]].

**''I guess that's a dungeon beyond us... Ick... There are bones scattered everywhere. Mmm... Mold and dust... Great.  You could totally choke on the stench in this place. HAAAAAACK!''
**''This must be the great hall of Hooktail Castle. I'd say it's the center of the castle. This place is so full of traps and dangers... It's kind of hard to get around, huh? If we could just walk to a window and look at the sky, that might clear our heads...''
**''This is Hooktail Castle. You feel that upward-moving draft in here? Wow, sure is a big castle. Who do you think built it? So many questions!''
**''These are the dungeons of Hooktail Castle. I don't think they're in use, but... yuck. Hey, y'know, I was meaning to ask... Have you mastered Koops's "Hold" move yet?
