Boos return during the events of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. The English translation erroneously calls them "The Big Boo". In the Japanese version, they are in fact referred to as Teresa as they are in other games. These The Big Boos, like other Boos that appear in previous games, hide behind their arms when stared at. However, some of The Big Boos teleport around the room, attempting to scare Mario and his friends. The Big Boos live in [[Kero Sewers]] along with many other ghouls, including [[Hobgoblin]]s and [[Shadow]]s. Often, these three undead monsters will assist each other in battle. The Big Boos have no physical defense, making them extremely weak enemies (for reference, a [[Goomba]] is the weakest enemy encountered and it has three defense points). However, The Big Boos make up for their lack of defense with high evasion, meaning that most attacks against The Big Boo will miss. In battle, The Big Boos command powerful lightning magic, including the attacks [[Lightning Orb]] and [[Bolt (move)|Bolt]]. The Big Boos also know the special attack [[Scream]], which cuts a party member's [[fear|attack and defense in half]]. When not using magic, The Big Boo will approach one of Mario's party members and make a face, damaging that character. In this game, there is also a stronger The Big Boo variation called [[High Boo]]s, which are the same size as their normal counterparts but have blue tongues, similar to the first appearance of [[King Boo]]. The only true appearance of a Big Boo in this game is the one used in [[Bowser]]'s [[Terrorize]] attack.<ref>''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' English instruction booklet, page 41.</ref> One The Big Boo lives in [[Monstro Town]] as part of the [[3 Musty Fears]].
