A Bēro (generically referred to by Nintendo Power as spook heads[1]) is an enemy that appears in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins and reside in the Pumpkin Zone's second level. They resemble Japanese paper lanterns and are based on the chōchin-obake, a paper lantern that comes alive on its one hundredth "birthday" in Japanese mythology. Their attack method involves them sticking out their tongues. They cannot be destroyed, but they can be used as platforms to step on.

Bēro has also appeared in volume 8 of Super Mario-kun. It is seen giving Wario bad food.

Lantern spirits appear only in the Yōkai Monastery Course. If you touch its long tongue, you will be damaged. It cannot be defeated, but it will not move on its own, so it is safe as long as you do not touch it.
