'''Candles''' appear in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] as enemies and interactive objects.


'''Candles''' are objects in [[Earth|the real world]] that have sometimes made appearances in [[Mario]] games as enemies. They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Candles sometimes appear as background items in many games as well.  
==History==
===''Super Mario Bros. 3''===
In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', candles<ref>{{cite|quote=Usually, Hot Foot stays on a burning candle.|title=''Super Mario Bros. 3'' instruction booklet|page=38|date=1990|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|author=Nintendo}}</ref> are fixed to walls and are sometimes used as a hiding place for [[Hot Foot]]s. [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] can stand on one as on a platform.


Later in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]'', candles appear as enemies once again, where if Mario touches one, he will burn and lose a life.
===''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''===
Candles appear in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' in the episode "[[Princess Toadstool for President]]," where one [[Hot Foot]] leaps out and chases Mario and Luigi.


In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', a candle appears as an enemy in Chapter 2, when [[Mimi]] chased [[Mario]] and [[Princess Peach]] through the mansion. This candle shot fire at either hero, and it was invincible.  
===''Luigi's Mansion''===
In ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'', candles<ref>{{cite|author=Hodgson, David S. J., and Bryan Stratton|date=2001|title=''Luigi's Mansion'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Strategy Guide|page=7|isbn=0-7615-3753-8}}</ref> are often used to light the hallways of the mansion and solve certain puzzles. Candle lamps are also one of the many sources of [[Fire Elemental Ghost]]s. If [[Luigi]] uses the [[Poltergust 3000]] on a candle lamp, it would release a Fire Elemental Ghost which Luigi could capture to turn the Poltergust 3000 into a flamethrower.

===''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''===
[[Category: Traps and Obstacles]]
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', a candle appears in [[Joke's End]], on the third floor. It appears useless, but if the player fills Mario with water on floor four and brings the bros. back down to the candle, they can hit Mario over the head with Luigi's hammer to cause Mario to spit water at the candle, extinguishing it. This causes a hidden [[? Block]] to appear in the room below, which contains seven [[Hoo Bean]]s.
 
===''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series===
====''Mario vs. Donkey Kong''====
[[File:MvsDK Candle.png|thumb|left]]
In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', candles appear as obstacles in the [[Spooky House]]. They float up and down in the same fashion as the [[Oil]] obstacle. If Mario touches one, he will burn and lose a life. However, candles can be destroyed by hitting them with a [[Hammer]].

If a [[Mini]] toy touches one, it will instantly be defeated.

They appear in all levels that contain [[Boo]]s. Candles emit light that forces all Boos in range to stop in place (if they were moving) and become harmless, allowing the [[Mini]]s to pass through them. Their light can also enable specific blocks that resemble [[Rotating Block]]s, making them solid.
 
===''Super Paper Mario''===
In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', candle lamps appear as enemies in [[Merlee's Basement]], when [[Mimi]] chases [[Mario]] and [[Princess Peach]] through the mansion. The candle lamps shoot fire at either hero and are invincible. There are also candles in [[The Underwhere]] and [[Castle Bleck]] that [[Bowser]] can light.
 
===''Mario Party DS''===
In ''[[Mario Party DS]]'', the minigame [[Big Blowout]] involves the player characters having to blow out candles along their path.
 
===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', candles from the ''{{wp|Castlevania}}'' series appear in the [[Dracula's Castle]] stage in random locations. If a fighter hits one with an attack, it disappears and releases an item.
