As their name suggests, these Boos are blindfolded. They were originally depicted as peach-colored mid-sized Boos with with a green mouth, but were depicted as white normal-sized Boos with a pink mouth in later appearances. Since it cannot see, the Blindfold Boo relies on sound to guide it. When it hears a sound, such as a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] gathering [[coin]]s, it will home in on the sound. In ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', only one is found in [[Bigger Boo's Fort]]. | ||
In ''Yoshi's Story'', they were redesigned to have light blue blindfolds, rather than black, and appear to have pink ears rather than arms. They only appear in Level 6-3, [[Ghost Castle]], and act just as they do in their first appearance. Much like in the previous game, they're invulnerable to attacks, and when pursuing a Yoshi, they can move faster than a Yoshi can run. | In ''Yoshi's Story'', they were redesigned to have light blue blindfolds, rather than black, and appear to have pink ears rather than arms.

In ''Super Princess Peach'', their appearance was changed once again to closer resemble their original sprite, but they only come as an advancing swarm wall this time. If [[Princess Peach|Peach]] is hit by the swarm, she will have to go back to the start of the room she is in. The chase ends when the princess leads them into light, causing them to vanish. They first appear in [[Shriek Mansion]]. Fast versions are introduced in [[Bowser's Villa]], and can only be outrun through use of the [[Gloom]] vibe. Like [[Beach Koopa]]s, blue [[Lava Bubble|Podoboo]]s, and [[Security Thwomp]]s, they do not appear in the in-game glossary. | In ''Super Princess Peach'', their appearance was changed once again to closer resemble their original sprite, but they only come as an advancing swarm wall this time.
