The '''Dry Bones Shell''' is an item in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', available in the editor as an alternate object to [[Dry Bones]]. Unlike [[Buzzy Shell]]s and [[Spiny Shell (red)|Spiny Shell]]s, Dry Bones Shells are upside down and cannot be worn on the head. Instead, they can be worn by Mario in a similar way to a [[Goomba's Shoe]] and are used to float across liquid hazards (including [[lava]] and [[poison (obstacle)|poison]]), ground pound, and become invulnerable temporarily by turning into a pile of bones. Additionally, they can be kicked, though they break upon hitting a wall.

The Dry Bones Shell is the only possible means of [[Ground Pound]]ing in the ''Super Mario World'' game style. Much like giant Goomba's Shoes, Ground Pounding with a Dry Bones Shell instantly defeats boss enemies, even [[Bowser]], as if a [[Thwomp]], a [[Muncher]], or a solid object landed on top of them. The only enemies that cannot be defeated with a Dry Bones Shell are Thwomps, Munchers (both of which are instead treated as terrain), the [[Angry Sun]], and [[Phanto]]s produced from [[Cursed Key]]s (both of which still damage the player).

When a Dry Bones Shell is placed or kicked underwater, it floats towards the surface instead of sink down like other items; when worn, the player acts as if they grabbed an item: the player cannot use the jump buttons to swim, but they float towards the surface when not inputting any buttons, and can also manually float by pressing {{button|switch|Up}} or sink by pressing {{button|switch|Down}}. 

In the story mode, [[Undodog]] gives Mario the job [[Swamp Escape by Shell!]], which when completed gives Undodog a big Dry Bones Shell as a doghouse. Another job called [[Secret of the Dry Bones Shell]] focuses on the shell as well.

Even though there are Dry Bones in the ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' style, the Dry Bones Shell is not available in that game style.

In the climax of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', [[Invincible Mario|Invincible Luigi]] briefly uses a Dry Bones Shell from a defeated Dry Bones as a shield.
