'''Boo Buddies''', also known as '''Circling Boo Buddies''',<ref>Nintendo ''Mario Mania'' Player's Guide. Page 51.</ref> are a spinning circular formation of [[Boo]]s with different facial expressions, first found in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. The circle has a single large gap and several small gaps between the individual Boo Buddies, allowing [[Mario]] to jump through. Unlike normal Boos, Boo Buddies do not stop moving when Mario faces them.

In games such as ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', [[Peepa]]s fulfill the role of Boo Buddies. Similarly, in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', there are groups of [[Octoboo]]s which behave just like Boo Buddies. A similar Boo formation is the [[Boo Buddy Snake]].

In ''Super Mario World'', Circling Boo Buddies appear in small rooms in [[Ghost House]]s and other haunted areas, including swamps and shipwrecks. They first appear in the [[Donut Secret House]]. Touching any one of the buddies can damage the Mario Bros. Unlike regular Boos, they do not become shy when looked at, suggesting Boos have more confidence in groups.

Boo Buddies reappear under their current name — which itself was previously used for regular Boos in ''Super Mario World'' — in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]''. This variant of Boos can be made in the Course Maker by shaking a Boo. Like many objects, they can be enlarged with a [[Super Mushroom]] and given wings, the latter of which will make them move in and out when they are circling. They can be placed in [[Warp Pipe]]s, [[Bill Blaster]]s, [[Block]]s, [[Lakitu's Cloud]]s and [[Track (object)|tracks]]. Because of the fact that these Boo Buddies did not appear before ''Super Mario World'', new sprites have been made for the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' game style. Also, Boo Buddies do not make facial expressions unlike in other games.
