'''Red Boos''' (also known as '''Pink Boos''', because of their coloration) are a light red or pink colored sub-species of [[Boo]]s, making their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]'' serving as the next fastest Boo in the game! Red Boos are treated as generic Boos and they are no different from any normal Boos, with the exception of the pinkish color. Red Boos were possibly introduced to take over the roles of normal Boos, since Boo was a host and later a playable character in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. Red Boos also come in a crowned variety. In ''Mario Party 4'', Red Boos are mainly featured on the board [[Boo's Haunted Bash]]. On that board, Red Boos can give a [[player]] a ride on the [[Mystery Train]]. In later ''Mario Party'' games, they served no role other than stealing [[coin]]s or [[star]]s from other players or being featured in various [[mini-game]]s, such as the [[Ghost in the Hall]] mini-game in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', Red Boos appeared in [[Card Party]]. If someone unluckily found one, it would steal the finder's star and give it to someone else. In ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', a Red Boo appears in [[Towering Treetop]] and [[Castaway Bay]]. Just like any other Boo, it can offer the player to steal either a star or coins.

'''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.


''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' introduced new mechanics to the Red Boos. Unlike other Red Boos, the [[Isle Delfino]] variety can be frozen and turned into small platforms (Platboos) when touched by liquid, whether it's [[F.L.U.D.D]]'s water or [[Yoshi Juice]]. These platforms can be used to reach higher areas, primarily in [[Hotel Delfino]]. The [[Hotel Manager]] asks [[Mario]] to get rid of the Boos haunting his hotel. Although Mario cannot completely defeat Red Boos, they leave the Hotel Delfino after Mario defeats their leader, [[King Boo]].  
Boos similar in color to Red Boos have appeared in other ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games—namely the [[:File:SMBD_Redboo.png|third Boo raced]] in the You VS.
