They are a type of white spherical ghost with menacing and normally open mouths. They are known for their large tongues and small stubby arms. However, the most distinctive characteristic of the Boos is their shy personality, as they cover their faces when someone looks directly at them, but then uncover and move after the character when their back is turned; this exact behavior is used by [[wikirby:Mumbies|Mumbies]] in the ''[[wikirby:Kirby (series)|Kirby]]'' series. | |||

==History== | |||
{{main|History of Boos}} | |||
Since their debut in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Boos have mainly been identified as an antagonistic enemy species, having their most major role within the [[Luigi's Mansion (series)|''Luigi's Mansion'' series]]. Sometimes, a Boo has appeared as a playable character, and the [[Nintendo 64]] version of ''[[Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]'' marks the first time that one appeared as a playable character. Boos have a variety of roles in spinoff series of the ''Super Mario'' franchise, such as being an item in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]]. | |||

Though their specifics change from game to game, | {{multiframe | ||

Though their specifics change from game to game, Boos are usually bashful, cowardly, spherical ghosts. They have black beady eyes and fangs. Although they are typically white, there are sub-species of the Boo race that appear in different colors, such as [[Red Boo|pink]]. From ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' onward, it became common to picture Boos sticking out their tongues. Boos often have wide open grinning mouths with their tongue sticking out. In most games, Boos are unable to change their facial expressions. The only exception is when they are looked at, in which case they bashfully cover their faces along with the section around their eyes blushing red or pink. However, the ''Luigi's Mansion'' and early ''Paper Mario'' games portray Boos as being more expressive than in other games, being able to frown, scowl, or even smirk. Since ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', Boos have been portrayed with a unique, high-pitched laugh. Both this laugh and [[Bowser]]'s laugh are derived from the same stock recording of a human man laughing recorded by [[Charles Martinet]];<ref>{{file link|Charles Martinet and the Comical Laugh Pt 2.png}}</ref> it was sped up for the Boos and slowed down for Bowser. However, Boos received a new laugh starting in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', being more of a haunting laugh than before. Although most species of Boo will cover their faces and become intangible when looked at, they will often sneak behind their victim and strike when their back is turned. Due to their ghostly abilities, Boos are generally invulnerable and cannot be harmed by ordinary means of attack. Despite this, they are not invincible and are especially vulnerable to the light. If they are exposed to a source of light, Boos are usually weakened, and in some cases, they may even be defeated. Usually, they can also have other weaknesses. Because of their intolerance to the light, Boos will often hide if they are trapped in lit rooms. However, King Boo claims that Boos cannot truly be killed. While the ghosts generally appear to be more afraid of their victims than their victim is of them, this is not always the case. Some Boos have absolutely no problem meeting their victim's gaze, and will even try to attack. Boos tend to have a taste for the fine arts, as seen in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 4]]''. In ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'' it is shown that Boos will actually save someone if only later to trick them. This is seen when Luigi watches through pipe in the [[Old Clockworks]] as a Yellow Toad balances on a ledge. Some Boos appear and watch the Toad before it falls off the ledge, which is later found to be quite a drop, the Boos show a large amount of concern and shock when this happens before diving down for the Toad. The Toad is later found in a painting because of the Boos. | |||
Boos are often characterized by their sub-species despite their similarities in appearance and attack manner. Boo species tend to vary wildly in size, with some such as [[Boo Buddy|Boo Buddies]] being miniature, while others such as the [[Big Boo]]s boast gigantic size. | |||
In ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'', [[Professor E. Gadd]] notes that Boos have mysterious powers that increase when they gather together in large groups. While it is difficult to stop them, they can be weakened if one is able to defeat members of the group. Although in ''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'' this does not seem to affect them or King Boo in any way suggesting that they do not always need to be in groups anymore. | |||
=== | Boos have few predators, their only known threat being a [[Spike]] named [[Tubba Blubba]] in ''Paper Mario'', when he began devouring Boos. This, however, may have been his revenge for the countless times the ghosts scared him. | ||
====Color variations==== | |||
Boos come in many different colors. The following is a list of all known Boos and the first appearance of the respective Boo. | |||

===Habitat=== | |||
Boos typically make their homes in dark forests, such as the [[Forever Forest]] and [[Boo Woods]], and tend to be most commonly found in older buildings such as mansions, castles, and [[Ghost House]]s. Although most of them live in such dwellings, they also seem to enjoy wastelands. One of the only known Boo villages lies in [[Gusty Gulch]]. | |||
They are typically found in groups because their fears make them find strength in big numbers. | |||
=== | ===Allegiance=== | ||
Though most Boos tend to side with Bowser and [[King Boo]], they seem to, for the most part, actually stand as neutral. For example, Boos are by now a common enemy in most side-scrolling games; however, in the ''Paper Mario'' series and now increasingly in the multiplayer games, Boos have been seen to take the side of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Lady Bow, in fact, helped [[Mario]] save the kingdom in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. In another example, the Boos in the [[Creepy Steeple]] from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' attack Mario initially, but later in the game Mario is sent a friendly letter from one of them. King Boo, on the other hand, has several times been shown to wish nothing but terrible things for [[Luigi]] (but this could be accredited to Luigi being easily scared, making him a prime target for most Boo antics). They also have attacked [[Bowser]] in some games, such as the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]], mainly from ''[[Mario Party 5]]'' to ''[[Mario Party 8]]''. | |||
===Language=== | |||
As hinted in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', Boos have their own unique language called Booish. It most probably is spoken only by Boos since Mario cannot understand it. However, upon absorbing a [[Boo Mushroom]] and turning into [[Boo Mario]], he gains the ability to read it, if not speak it as well. | |||
''[[Paper Mario]]'' also features Boos replacing certain words with "Boo", possibly as a part of the Booish language: | |||
<blockquote> | |||
''I am so bored!! Boo-ored! | |||
''Boo-st of luck! | |||
''Hey, what can I Boo for you? | |||
''It's going to be the most Boo-tiful wedding ever! | |||

Boos (originally known as "Boo" Diddlys,[1] a nod to American R&B singer Bo Diddley, and later Boo Buddies[2][3][4][5][6][7] or simply Ghosts[8]) are recurring ghost enemies that first appear in Super Mario Bros. 3. They are a type of white spherical ghost with menacing and normally open mouths. They are known for their large tongues and small stubby arms. However, the most distinctive characteristic of the Boos is their shy personality, as they cover their faces when someone looks directly at them, but then uncover and move after the character when their back is turned; this exact behavior is used by Mumbies in the Kirby series.
Shigeru Miyamoto got the idea for Boo from the wife of his coworker and close friend Takashi Tezuka, as she is shy but one day got very angry with him for coming home late from work.[9][10]
History[edit]
- Main article: History of Boos
Since their debut in Super Mario Bros. 3, Boos have mainly been identified as an antagonistic enemy species, having their most major role within the Luigi's Mansion series. Sometimes, a Boo has appeared as a playable character, and the Nintendo 64 version of Mario Tennis marks the first time that one appeared as a playable character. Boos have a variety of roles in spinoff series of the Super Mario franchise, such as being an item in the Mario Kart series.
General information[edit]
Physical appearance[edit]
Though their specifics change from game to game, Boos are usually bashful, cowardly, spherical ghosts. They have black beady eyes and fangs. Although they are typically white, there are sub-species of the Boo race that appear in different colors, such as pink. From Luigi's Mansion onward, it became common to picture Boos sticking out their tongues. Boos often have wide open grinning mouths with their tongue sticking out. In most games, Boos are unable to change their facial expressions. The only exception is when they are looked at, in which case they bashfully cover their faces along with the section around their eyes blushing red or pink. However, the Luigi's Mansion and early Paper Mario games portray Boos as being more expressive than in other games, being able to frown, scowl, or even smirk. Since Super Mario 64, Boos have been portrayed with a unique, high-pitched laugh. Both this laugh and Bowser's laugh are derived from the same stock recording of a human man laughing recorded by Charles Martinet;[11] it was sped up for the Boos and slowed down for Bowser. However, Boos received a new laugh starting in Mario Power Tennis, being more of a haunting laugh than before. Although most species of Boo will cover their faces and become intangible when looked at, they will often sneak behind their victim and strike when their back is turned. Due to their ghostly abilities, Boos are generally invulnerable and cannot be harmed by ordinary means of attack. Despite this, they are not invincible and are especially vulnerable to the light. If they are exposed to a source of light, Boos are usually weakened, and in some cases, they may even be defeated. Usually, they can also have other weaknesses. Because of their intolerance to the light, Boos will often hide if they are trapped in lit rooms. However, King Boo claims that Boos cannot truly be killed. While the ghosts generally appear to be more afraid of their victims than their victim is of them, this is not always the case. Some Boos have absolutely no problem meeting their victim's gaze, and will even try to attack. Boos tend to have a taste for the fine arts, as seen in Paper Mario and Mario Party 4. In Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon it is shown that Boos will actually save someone if only later to trick them. This is seen when Luigi watches through pipe in the Old Clockworks as a Yellow Toad balances on a ledge. Some Boos appear and watch the Toad before it falls off the ledge, which is later found to be quite a drop, the Boos show a large amount of concern and shock when this happens before diving down for the Toad. The Toad is later found in a painting because of the Boos.
Boos are often characterized by their sub-species despite their similarities in appearance and attack manner. Boo species tend to vary wildly in size, with some such as Boo Buddies being miniature, while others such as the Big Boos boast gigantic size.
In Luigi's Mansion, Professor E. Gadd notes that Boos have mysterious powers that increase when they gather together in large groups. While it is difficult to stop them, they can be weakened if one is able to defeat members of the group. Although in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon this does not seem to affect them or King Boo in any way suggesting that they do not always need to be in groups anymore.
Boos have few predators, their only known threat being a Spike named Tubba Blubba in Paper Mario, when he began devouring Boos. This, however, may have been his revenge for the countless times the ghosts scared him.
Color variations[edit]
Boos come in many different colors. The following is a list of all known Boos and the first appearance of the respective Boo.

- Boo's Crystal Ball - Mario Party 4

Habitat[edit]
Boos typically make their homes in dark forests, such as the Forever Forest and Boo Woods, and tend to be most commonly found in older buildings such as mansions, castles, and Ghost Houses. Although most of them live in such dwellings, they also seem to enjoy wastelands. One of the only known Boo villages lies in Gusty Gulch.
They are typically found in groups because their fears make them find strength in big numbers.
Allegiance[edit]
Though most Boos tend to side with Bowser and King Boo, they seem to, for the most part, actually stand as neutral. For example, Boos are by now a common enemy in most side-scrolling games; however, in the Paper Mario series and now increasingly in the multiplayer games, Boos have been seen to take the side of the Mushroom Kingdom. Lady Bow, in fact, helped Mario save the kingdom in Paper Mario. In another example, the Boos in the Creepy Steeple from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door attack Mario initially, but later in the game Mario is sent a friendly letter from one of them. King Boo, on the other hand, has several times been shown to wish nothing but terrible things for Luigi (but this could be accredited to Luigi being easily scared, making him a prime target for most Boo antics). They also have attacked Bowser in some games, such as the Mario Party series, mainly from Mario Party 5 to Mario Party 8.
Language[edit]
As hinted in the game Super Mario Galaxy, Boos have their own unique language called Booish. It most probably is spoken only by Boos since Mario cannot understand it. However, upon absorbing a Boo Mushroom and turning into Boo Mario, he gains the ability to read it, if not speak it as well.
Paper Mario also features Boos replacing certain words with "Boo", possibly as a part of the Booish language:
I am so bored!! Boo-ored!
Boo-st of luck!
Hey, what can I Boo for you?
It's going to be the most Boo-tiful wedding ever!
