Halloween Discussion: Who is your favorite ghost featured in the Mario franchise?

[Captain Lumacey]

The Mario franchise has featured a lot of ghosts over the years, mostly as enemies. I thought it would be fun to discuss your favorite ghosts for Halloween.

My favorite ghost is Polterpup from Luigi's Mansion 2, since he has a nice character development from being a mischievous prankster to being Luigi's pal.

I will also shout out Lady Bow from Paper Mario 64, her character is pretty memorable and humorous and repeatedly slapping enemies is a hilarious way to attack.

looks to the left at the King Boo plush I've carried around campus with me every day for the last three years

Hard to say, really.

I notice that your current forum avatar is a variant of the Strong Greenie ghost from Luigi's Mansion 2. Is it an original character of yours?

It is, I made her back in 2019 when I first came out as trans.

this thing tends to get left out as opposed to the purple punchers, gold ghosts, and blue twirlers who make many later appearances so i feel bad for it

ive wanted greenies playable in mario kart or at least another mario spinoff for a very long time, i thought they would make very fun additions.

Personally is a Three way tie between the Boos Possesors and Poltergeists all just seem so fun!

The King Boo from Super Mario Sunshine and the King Boo from Mario Kart (the Luigi's Mansion one... not at all).

Thank you for reading.

Oh, that would be a good pick. (This also reminds me, has E. Gadd really still not turned up in Mario Kart?)
