====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''====
Lantern Ghosts are enemies in every installment of the [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' series]]. They behave identically to Shy-Guys, as they only walk around and sometimes emerge from [[pipe]]s. A [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] can defeat a Lantern Ghost by either eating it or [[jump]]ing on it. In ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' and its [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|remake]], Lantern Guys are enemies commonly encountered in caves, and they appear in the same four color varieties as regular Shy-Guys: grey, green, orange, and brown. In ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', Lantern Ghosts are exactly the same as in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', but they instead appear in only three color varieties: white, red, and green. In ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', only green Lantern Guys appear, and they appear in the levels [[Lantern Ghost Grotto]] and [[Bandit Valley]].
