'''Keyzer'''<ref>''Wario Land 4'' European instruction booklet, page 23.</ref>, sometimes referred to as a '''Ghost Key'''<ref>''Nintendo Power Advance'' V.3, page 53.</ref>, is a small levitating creature which bears some resemblance to a [[Boo]], although with a [[key]] for a nose. They are seen in the [[Game Boy Advance]] game ''[[Wario Land 4]]'', where one must be located by [[Wario]] in each of the eighteen stages. A Keyzer will always be found sleeping. Once found, it will wake up and follow Wario until he either loses all his health points, or exits the level via the [[Vortex]]. The Keyzer will then unlock the sealed door that leads to the next stage, and will disappear once it does so. Once the door is unlocked, the Keyzer cannot be found within that same stage a second time. 

If Wario exits a stage without finding the Keyzer, his points and any [[jewel piece]]s collected will still be counted, he just will not be able to progress to the next stage. Wario is able to re-enter any stage where the Keyzer has not been found.

[[File:WL4 Screenshot Keyzer Taken.png|frame|left|The ghost, who has stolen Keyzer.]]
In the [[Crescent Moon Village]] stage, a [[Ghost (Wario Land 4)|ghost]] enemy shows an interest in Keyzer, and excitedly tries to steal him from Wario. The ghost's movement will become faster after stealing the Keyzer, which may make it difficult for Wario catch him. Wario simply has to touch the ghost to retrieve the Keyzer, although the ghost will continue trying to steal it.

Keyzer also appears in volume 28 of the Japanese manga series "''[[Super Mario-Kun]]''", on the page showing the chapter's end.
