Ghosts,[1][2] also known as worms,[3][4] are enemies in Yoshi's Story. They are flying green snake-like creatures with red lips, blue tufts of hair, fangs and red eyes resembling Lunge Fish from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island encountered in Baby Bowser's boss fight. During the fight, ghosts fly in waves across the top of the screen, with Baby Bowser jumping between them. While on top of a ghost, Baby Bowser cannot be hit by eggs, as they bounce off the ghost's body instead. Instead, a Yoshi has to either throw eggs at the ceiling (causing falling spikes to fall down) or explode them at Baby Bowser's face.
A ghost appears in the Yoshi's Story segment of the manga Mario no Bōken Land.
