Boo Man Bluff

Boo Man Bluff is an enemy which first appears in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.
==Profile==
===Physical description===
Boo Man Bluff is a variant of Boo that wears a black blindfold, preventing them from being able to see. In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Boo Man Bluffs are depicted as mid-sized peach-colored Boos with a green mouth and short, stubby arms.
In Yoshi's Story, Boo Man Bluffs are colored white and were given large pink ears, although they now lack arms and no longer have a green mouth. Their blindfold color was also changed to light-blue.
For Super Princess Peach, the design from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was reinstated, but the Boo Man Bluffs are still white and lack a green mouth like in Yoshi's Story.
===Behavior===
Because they are blindfolded, Boo Man Bluffs rely on sound to figure out where a Yoshi is, something that Yoshi's Story emphasizes by giving it ears. In Super Princess Peach, they appear in swarms.

===Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island===
There is only one Boo Man Bluff, and it appears in Bigger Boo's Fort. In the remake Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, some Boo Man Bluffs appear in the Endless World of Yoshis. A Boo Man Bluff cannot be defeated.
===Yoshi Story===
For this appearance, they are named Blindfolded Boos, or alternatively Blindfold Boos. Blindfolded Boos exclusively in the Ghost Castle, and two can be seen in the level's associated icon. Blindfolded Boos act similarly as in their first appearance. Much like in the previous game, Blindfolded Boos are invulnerable to attacks, and when a Blindfolded Boo goes after a Yoshi, it can move faster than the Yoshi can run.

Boo Man Bluffs first appear in the level Shriek Mansion 3-3. They are only encountered as an impenetrable swarm, and their movement causes the screen to move. Despite being blindfolded, a Boo Man Bluff's behavior is affected if Princess Peach looks at them, in which case they hide, while continuing to chase her. If Peach touches a Boo Man Bluff, she is forced to restart the room she is in. The Boo Man Bluffs stop chasing Peach once she leads them into light, causing them to vanish. In later levels, Boo Man Bluff are much quicker, and Peach can only escape from them using the Gloom vibe.
Boo Man Bluff are one of the few enemies to not appear in the Glossary.
