'''Horkus Porkus''' (also known as '''Phil''') is | [[File:Horkus Porkus.png|frame]] | ||
'''Horkus Porkus''' (also known as '''Phil''') is an [[List of enemies|enemy]] in the [[Smithsnorian Museum]] in ''[[Wario: Master of Disguise]]''. It is the statue of a God who can look straight into the heart of all men. Due to a tragic spelling error, most people call it "Phil" as said in the game. To defeat this statue, [[Wario]] must jump on it various times. 3 of these statues appear in the game. | |||
The statue's design is that of a man with a bird's head, which is very reminicent of the way in which Horus the falcon-headed god is depicted in [[wikipedia:Ancient Egyptian religion|ancient Egyptian mythology]], as is the overall statue motif. Horkus Porkus' name comes from the phrase "Hocus Pocus", which refers to magic. | |||
