Boo: Difference between revisions

'''Boos''' (originally known as '''Boo Diddleys''' and later '''Boo Buddies'''-but sometimes mistaken for '''King Boos''' without the crown even though there's only one [[King Boo]] (although it is possible that there are [[King Boo (Luigi's Mansion)|multiple]] [[King Boo (Super Mario Sunshine)|monarchs]])) are common ghost enemies in the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]] that first appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They are a type of white spherical ghost with menacing and constantly open mouths. They are known for their large tongues and small "arms" of some sort. However, the most distinctive characteristic of the Boos is their shy personality, where they cover their faces when someone looks them directly at the face. They will uncover their faces once the subject turns around. [[Goombario]]'s [[tattle]] for the Boo [[Igor]] in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' states: ''"He probably was a merchant before he became a Boo,"'' implying that current Boos may have once been living beings. It is revealed in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' that they speak in Booish.
