'''Phantos''' are large, seemingly-living masks that appear in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where they are found guarding [[key]]s. According to the game's manual, they often guard various other treasures as well. Their name is a shortened form of the word "phantom", another word for ghost or specter, and is likely used in reference to ''{{wp|The Phantom of the Opera}}''.

In ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'', the Phanto's expression and color scheme most resembles its original artwork; starting with the original [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] version of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', they are given a distinctive evil grin, and subsequent remakes portray them as golden in color instead. Most of its appearances outside these games either draw from its original appearance, or else use the gold sprite from the remakes.
