A Spooky[1] is a creature wearing a Lantern Ghost-like disguise appearing only in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its Game Boy Advance version. Spookies float near the ground, occasionally "jumping" to briefly gain more altitude, especially when they are nearing the player. If they reach a wall while floating up a slope, they will stop instead of turning around. A Yoshi can stand on them and let them carry him. Spookies are capable of stealing Baby Mario, but to do this, they need to land directly on top of a Yoshi.

If a Yoshi attempts to eat a Spooky or attacks it with a Ground Pound, the disguise will disappear and the green Shy-Guy under it will be revealed. However, if Baby Mario has been stolen by the Spooky, it will be a Bandit instead. A Spooky is one of the few enemies a Yoshi cannot defeat by breathing fire.
