'''Kreepy Krow''', originally known simply as '''Krow''', is the undead ghost form of [[Krow]] after his death in [[Krow's Nest]]. Kreepy Krow is the boss of [[Gloomy Gulch]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', where he appears in his eponymous boss stage. | |||

After [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] defeat Krow in [[Gangplank Galleon]], his spirit leaves his body and flies off (which is only shown in the [[Game Boy Advance]] version). Later on their journey, the [[Kong]]s find Kreepy Krow on another crow's nest in Gloomy Gulch. The battle takes place on three different floors.

Later on their journey, the [[Kong]]s find Kreepy Krow on another crow's nest in Gloomy Gulch. The battle takes place on three different floors. On the first floor, Kreepy Krow sends three ghost [[Mini-Necky|Mini-Neckies]] and a regular one to charge at the Kongs. Beating the normal one somehow spawns a [[Barrel]]. When this happens, Kreepy Krow flaps in a set pattern, attempting to injure the Kongs. They must quickly throw the Barrel to attack Kreepy Krow, and he then flies upward. | ||
While the Kongs climb to the next floor, Kreepy Krow drops large [[egg]]s at them. They must avoid the eggs to find Kreepy Krow on the next floor.

They must avoid the eggs to find Kreepy Krow on the next floor. Unlike last time, Kreepy Krow summons five ghost Mini-Neckies and a normal one, all of whom swoop faster. The Kongs must defeat the live Mini-Necky again and toss the spawned Barrel at Kreepy Krow. He flaps upward again, and then drops eggs while the Kongs climb on the rope but at a faster rate. | ||

They all swoop even quicker than the ones on the previous two floors. The Kongs must again beat the normal Mini-Necky and throw the Barrel that spawns at Kreepy Krow to defeat him and earn his [[Kremkoin]]. | ||
In the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super NES]] version, Kreepy Krow does not appear as a member of the "[[Barnacled Bosses]]" group; dialogue and the Player's Guide treat him simply as Krow (with "Kreepy Krow" just being the level title), so his exclusion is probably for the same reason. However, in the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, he does have a separate appearance there. | |||

Kreepy Krow resumes his role as Gloomy Gulch's boss in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. Unlike ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', it is not evident that Kreepy Krow is undead because him and Krow share the same sprites.

This is most likely because the [[Game Boy]]'s palette is limited to a few colors. | ||
At the start of the boss battle, Kreepy Krow sends four [[Mini-Necky]]s (it is unknown where they are alive or undead). Unlike the previous game, [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] are not required to defeat any of the Mini-Neckys because an egg, instead of a Barrel, falls on the stage after each one is dodged. The active Kong must throw it at Kreepy Krow. The pattern repeats a second time. After being hit again, Kreepy Krow flies upward, and drops eggs at the active Kong while they climb up. | At the start of the boss battle, Kreepy Krow sends four [[Mini-Necky]]s (it is unknown where they are alive or undead).
