Boohemoth
- Not to be confused with Behemoth.
Template:Species-infobox Boohemoth is a type of Big Boo that is introduced in New Super Mario Bros. 2. It is one of the largest Boos in the Mario series. Unlike the other members of the Boo species, the Boohemoth has normal human-like incisors instead of fangs, visible cheeks and chin, and it has two eyeholes with a white iris and black pupils. Boohemoth has a very low-pitched laugh compared to its fellow Boos. Its name is a combination of "boo" and "behemoth" (a large, fabled beast in fantasy culture).
History
New Super Mario Bros. 2
In New Super Mario Bros. 2, Boohemoth appears only in two different Ghost Houses: World 2-Ghost House and World Flower-Ghost House. In certain areas of a Ghost House, the Boohemoth appears out of nowhere and chases Mario or Luigi. It controls the movement of the camera. Just like normal Boos, if Mario or Luigi looks at it, it closes its eyes with its hands and remains still along with the camera. However, unlike Boos, if Mario or Luigi stare at it for a while when far away from it, it will peek through its hands and slowly sneak up to them.
Due to its massive size, Mario and Luigi can't go through the Boohemoth, and if they get crushed between it and an obstacle, they will die. Also, the Boohemoth is immune to all of the heroes' power-ups, even to Gold Mario's fireballs, the Starman, and the Invincibility Leaf, making it an invincible enemy.
Mario Kart 8
In Mario Kart 8, a Boohemoth can be seen as a statue on top of the entrance of Twisted Mansion. Template:BoxTop
