-'''Yikk''' is a character from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. When [[Bowser]] enters the [[Tower of Yikk]], and reads through a book he finds on a desk, Bowser's way out is blocked, and Yikk appears from the book as his undead form. Yikk claims he invented the Tower of Yikk and the [[Boo-ray Machine]]. He created the Boo-ray Machine to study [[Boo]]s and other spiritual beings. After Yikk explains his machine and how to use it, he shuts the book, and goes back into slumber.
