Trivia

 * The Ghost Vase is one of the two new enemies from New Super Mario Bros. Wii that do not return in New Super Mario Bros. U, the other being the King Bill.
 * The Ghost Vase's method of attack is very similar to that of the Invisighoul of Yoshi's Island DS throwing furniture - remaining still until approached, then swaying in the air and thrown directly at the player. A laughing Boo also implies it was thrown by one, as the furniture was by Invisighouls.
