Big Lantern Ghost

The Big Lantern Ghost is the mid-boss of the Shy Guy's Toy Box in the game Paper Mario. Although he carries a lantern, the Big Lantern Ghost lives in an extremely dark room. In fact, he loves darkness and dreads light. As such, Mario and his partners should attack the ghostâ€™s lantern, which in turn causes the room to brighten. Bow's slap attakcs are highly effective as they will cuase the lantern to fill the entire room. When the room is completely lit, Mario and company can attack the Big Lantern Ghost directly. After the ghost is defeated, Mario can shatter the lantern with his Hammer. A Liâ€™l Sparky named Watt will emerge from the lantern. As it turns out, she was trapped in the lantern and forced to be the Big Lantern Ghostâ€™s light source. After Mario frees her, Watt becomes Marioâ€™s sixth companion.

The Big Lantern Ghost may have been a large Shy Guy in disguise.

Tattle This is a Big Lantern Ghost. He avoids attacks by hiding in the dark. Your friends, like (ahem) me, will also be damaged when he does the flash attack. The flash attack's power is 2. Hit the Lantern many times to make it brighter, then you'll be able to attack him. As soon as you can see, hit him right in the head!
