Ghost Vases[1] are objects in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. These floating stands appear mainly in World 3-
Ghost House and World 4-Ghost House, as well as a bonus room of World 7-Ghost House. When the player gets close to a Ghost Vase, it turns purple and flies into the air, rotating. However, it eventually stops and rotates faster. After this, it flies toward the player. The player can avoid the Ghost Vase simply by jumping over it or running away from it. If the Ghost Vase misses its target, it continues to fly until it hits a platform or a wall, where it breaks and releases a coin. This method of attack is considerably similar to Invisighouls in Yoshi's Island DS in that they remain still until approached, sway in the air, and are thrown directly at the player.
The Ghost Vase and King Bill are the only two enemies in New Super Mario Bros. Wii that do not return in New Super Mario Bros. U, though both games have a similar enemy to Ghost Vases named Ghost Block.
