'''Peepas''' are [[Boo]]-like enemies debuting in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They are small, white ghosts with stubby arms, two teeth, black eyes with white pupils, and a smiling mouth. They are somewhat comparable to [[Eerie]]s from ''[[Super Mario World]]'' in that they travel in predetermined paths. Certain appearances like ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' give them a bluish glow, similar to Boos.

Peepas appear only in the [[Ghost House]] levels in ''Super Mario 3D Land''. Peepas often appear with Boos, although they do not go after [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. Peepas either remain in place or, similar to [[Octoboo]]s, sometimes circle an area. A Peepa can only be defeated by [[Invincible Mario]].
Peepas are exclusive to the [[Ghost House]]s found in the game. These enemies are usually found alongside [[Boo]]s. Peepas do not directly attack [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] when they get too close, but rather stay in a stationary position or moving in a set area, making them more of an obstacle rather than an enemy. Sometimes, several Peepas encircle a select area similar to the [[Octoboo]]s in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. A Peepa can only be defeated by running into it while under the effects of a [[Super Star]].

Peepas return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', now behaving like the [[Boo Buddies|Circling Boo Buddies]] of ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They first show up in {{world link|2|ghosthousen2|World 2-Ghost House}}. Peepas carry [[ghost-coaster]]s in {{world link|3|ghosthousen2|World 3-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}} when Mario or Luigi stands on one, and though these Peepas do not damage the player character, they do tilt the ghost-coaster and disappear with it upon reaching the end point.
Peepas made their next appearance in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', marking their first sidescroller appearance. They act like the [[Circling Boo Buddies]] of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Like most Boos of the game, they have a bluish complexion. Peepas first appear in [[World 2|World 2's]] Ghost House.  


Also, in [[World 3|World 3's]] Ghost House and other Ghost House based levels, Peepas carry moving yellow platforms. They appear when Mario stands on one of them. They will move along with the platform tracks if there is any. Sometimes they will tilt the platforms and also they may disappear at the end of a track, causing the platforms to disappear as well. These platform-carrying Peepas do not hurt Mario or Luigi if they touch them, unlike the circling Peepas.

Peepas reappear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and [[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury|its port]]. Unlike before, it takes a [[Light Box]] to defeat a Peepa, which makes a terrified face when shone at and a distorted sound upon being defeated. Captain Toad's headlamp in the [[Captain Toad's Adventures]] levels, exclusive to the enhanced port, can defeat Peepas and [[Boo]]s in the manner of a Light Box.
