'''Red Boos''', also known as '''Pink Boos''' due to their coloration, are a pink-colored (or occasionally light red-colored) variant of [[Boo]] that appears in the ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series. They are treated and behave similarly to white Boos, with the only difference being their coloration in most depictions. Starting with ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', their role of an alternate behavior for Boos has seemingly gone to [[Peepa]]s.

Red Boo, Mario Party 8

Red Boos, also known as Pink Boos due to their coloration, are a pink-colored (or occasionally light red-colored) variant of Boo that appears in the Mario Party series. They are treated and behave similarly to white Boos, with the only difference being their coloration in most depictions. Starting with Mario Party: Island Tour, their role of an alternate behavior for Boos has seemingly gone to Peepas.

Boos similar in color to Red Boos have appeared in other Super Mario games—namely the third Boo raced in the You VS. Boo mode of Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, Boo's second-player color schemeMedia:Boo Colors.png in Mario Tennis, red-colored BoosMedia:MPA Boo red.png in the Mario Party Advance minigame Boo-Bye, and one of the colored BoosMedia:PeekaBooMPDS.png in the Mario Party DS minigame Peek-a-Boo. However, Red Boos are considered distinct entities from these Boos.
