    Boo’s the name. Scary is the game!

    The bravest heroes in the Mushroom Kingdom know better than to turn their backs on Boo. This ghostly creature floats through some of the creepiest places in the Mario universe, from haunted mansions to underground lairs.

  • Who's Your Mushroom Kingdom BFF?: Boo's a good friend, because it'll scare away your enemies. But it's also kinda shy, so don't stare at it.

Kids section of Nintendo Co., Ltd. site

「テレサ
暗いところによく現れる、イタズラ好きなオバケ。
うしろからおそいかかろうと近づいてくるけど、顔をあわせると恥ずかしくて動けなくなっちゃうらしい。
照れ屋さんだから「テレサ」という名前なのかな?
いろんなテレサがいて、なかには王冠をかぶった大きなテレサもいるんだって!」

Boo
A ghost that loves mischief, and often appears from dark areas.
Even though it slowly tries to fly down and approach you from behind, it seems if you turn and face it directly, it becomes embarrassed and completely unable to move.
Maybe its name Teresa comes from the word Tereya-san (shy person)?
There are various Boos, among them there's even a large Boo that wears a crown![15]

Mario Portal

「暗いところによく現れる、イタズラ好きなオバケ。
オバケなのにとても照れ屋で、目を合わせると恥ずかしくて動けなくなってしまいます。」

A ghost that appears in dark places and likes to play pranks.
Despite being a ghost it's totally shy, and upon making eye contact will become embarrassed and unable to move.

The official home of Super Mario

Mischievous ghosts who often appear in dark, abandoned places.

They may be spooky ghosts, but they're also incredibly shy. They will freeze in place and cover their eyes if someone looks right at them.[16]

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening (Nintendo Switch)

  • Figure bio: It's a Boo figure. Hm? It's looking at you in the eye and still smiling?
