'''Horkus Porkus''' (also known as '''Phil''') is a statue 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 him "Phil" as said in the game. To defeat this statue [[Wario]] must jump on it various times. His name is based on "Hocus Pocus". The statue is also a statue of a bird.  
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.
