- —Spriteling, Wario World
Terrible Portraits are sub bosses in Wario World. There are two Terrible Portraits Wario must fight in the Mirror Mansion; one in the middle of the level and one at the very end of it. They appear as three photo frames, one on the left, one on the right and a large one in the middle. The side frames have two white arms coming out of them and the large middle one has a face resembling a carved jack-o-lantern. The arms attack by summoning different elements. The main portrait creates Barrel Busters, which can be Piledrived while standing under one of the arms to do damage. The attacks of a Terrible Portrait include summoning a large fireball that homes in on Wario; faster-traveling electricity that moves in a straight line; a large boulder that slams on the ground, crushing Wario if he happens to be standing there; or summoning a giant ice ball that freezes Wario.
It is possible to skip both Terrible Portrait fights in international releases, the first with a glitch known as a Super Jump and the second by jumping around either border, although it locks the camera to a specific angle for both.
