Ghosts[1] are forms in Super Mario Bros. Wonder that characters take in co-op, or online play mode when they are defeated and out of play. While in this form, the screen will turn black and white, a text saying "Help Me!" will appear above the ghost character's head, and a five-second countdown will appear; during the countdown, the ghost character's face will gain a panicked expression when the countdown is anywhere below three, and must touch another player in play or a standee to respawn in their Small form if not playing as a Yoshi or Nabbit. Otherwise, they lose a life and gasp in disbelief, swirl around then vanish. The player can also lose a life immediately by pressing L Button and R Button at the same time as a ghost. The more times they are defeated and turned into a ghost then rescued during the same life, the shorter the ghost lifetime, indicated by the counter speeding up. You can hold buttons L & R to intentionally become a ghost. This is useful if you get stuck somewhere in the level and there are players or standees nearby, as ghosts can pass through objects and walls.

Ghosts share a similar function with Bubbles.
