'''Octoboos'''<ref>{{cite|author=Browne, Catherine|title=''Super Mario Galaxy 2: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|location=Roseville|publisher=Random House Inc|date=May 23, 2010|page=28|isbn=978-0-30746-907-6}}</ref> are [[List of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are encountered in [[Haunty Halls Galaxy]], [[Boo Moon Galaxy]], and [[Flash Black Galaxy]] as regular enemies. They are [[Boo]]s shaped like [[Octoomba]]s, and Octoboos move around primarily by floating in a set area. Octoboos cannot be defeated, but they become transparent when the player uses a [[spin]] near them or from [[Yoshi]]'s tongue. Octoboos also make small Octoomba sounds if [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] is close to them. Unlike most members of the Octoomba family, they do not spit rocks.

'''Octoboos''' are an undead variant of [[Octoomba]]s appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They appear in the [[Haunty Halls Galaxy]] and [[Boo Moon Galaxy]] as regular enemies. In the first mission "A Glimmer of Bulb Berry", they are the first enemies to be encountered, and they can be found in groups while encircling a select area. In the second mission "Sneaking Down the Creepy Corridor", [[Boo Mario]] has to avoid these enemies to progress through the area. Octoboos resemble white, legless Octoombas with ghostly tails. They primarily move around by floating in a set area, and they can also become transparent when the player uses a [[Spin]] on them or a tongue grab from [[Yoshi]], thus avoiding any attack.

==Trivia==
In [[A Glimmer of Bulb Berry]], they are the first enemies to be encountered. They can be found in groups while encircling a select area, behaving somewhat like [[Boo Buddies|Circling Boo Buddies]] or [[Peepa]]s in later games. In [[Haunting the Howling Tower]], [[Boo Mario]] has to avoid these enemies to progress through the area.  
*Octoboos make small [[Octoomba]] sounds if Mario or Luigi is close to them.
