* In the Shiverburn Galaxy, if you change the camera to first-person mode and look toward the cliffs above you, you can see three shadowy figures on the cliff, watching you, and following you. The file names? ''[=BeyondHellValleySky=]'' is where they reside, and ''[=HellValleySkyTree=]'' is the names; the ominousness of the trees were enough, but ''those names'' make them worse. The skybox implies that the cliff background is very far away, suggesting that these figures are somewhere between the size of a large hill to mountain-sized.
* The black hole that spawns at certain places, waiting to suck Mario in if he falls off within range. The [[HellIsThatNoise sound too doesn't help matters at all]].
* The black hole that spawns at certain places, waiting to suck Mario in if he falls off within range. The [[HellIsThatNoise sound too doesn't help matters at all]].
to:
* In The black holes, much like in the first game, can be found in many places just waiting to suck Mario in if he falls off within range. The [[HellIsThatNoise sounds they produce don't help matters at all]].
* This game introduces the Cosmic Clones, shadowy dopplegangers of Mario with glowing yellow eyes who mimic his every movement and cause damage on contact, suddenly appearing from nowhere with a high-pitched cackle and vanishing with a pained scream when the conditions are met to defeat them (usually doing something to make the level's Star appear). They'll likely only seem like a minor nuisance the first time you come across them, but in more restrictive spaces and when they spawn in large numbers, it's easy for just one brush with them to lead into either being dogpiled or knocked to your doom. The game also features Clone Comets, which force Mario to go through an entire level while being pursued by them, and which often feature [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiPYVJ_KC0o a menacing theme that combines the underground theme with the original overworld theme.]]
** Bear in mind it also [[NothingIsScarier isn't explained how or why these things exist]], and the fact that there's an entire ''comet type'' that causes them to appear seems to imply they have no affiliation with Bowser and are simply created by some kind of mysterious force that naturally exists within the galaxies.
* Digga-Leg is essentially a smaller version of the first game's Megaleg boss, sharing several of the same menacing qualities such as its gas mask-like face. Compared to its big brother, it's ''far'' less imposing in size and can't crush Mario instantly, but it still dwarfs the Mario bros, has [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]] and emits smoke from its "mask" on top of being far more mobile than Megaleg, being able to ''leap'' off-screen. It also has to be fought [[OneHitPointWonder under the conditions of a Daredevil Comet]].
* Mattermouths, new enemies to the series, appear as large and disembodied Dry Bones heads surrounded by dark purple aura that somehow consume matter itself, eating through parts of levels and leave gaping holes behind them. They can't be defeated or harmed, and the only thing Mario can do to them is stomp on them to make them eat in the opposite direction. The trails they leave behind have a similar appearance to Dark Matter in the first game, which combined with their names implies they're ''made'' from Dark Matter.
* Sorbetti, the boss of Freezy Flake Galaxy, a giant spiky [[SlasherSmile grinning]] snowball creature [[MonsterClown with a freaky clownish face]] that produces almost nothing but shrill giggles. It's big enough that Mario actually walks around on its body before launching to the arena planet, and in the fight it constantly rolls after Mario, only stopping when it hits him, which causes it to laugh before rolling at him from the opposite direction. After two hits, both it and the music will stop abruptly before starting up again at a faster pace as Sorbetti begins ''[[TurnsRed furiously]]'' rolling after the plumber, all the while sporting a terrifying grimace and making constant maniacal grunting sounds. It's difficult to outrun the thing even ''with'' the snow structures and trees which slow it down, and even then it mows through them relatively effortlessly.
** Speaking of Sorbetti, the planet leading up to it is quite a spooky area. It's engulfed in a blizzard which very suddenly kicks in as it's approached, and it obscures much of Mario's surroundings, leaving the entire place floating in a misty white void. It also uses [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6k7y_GkX1w a pretty mysterious and lonely theme]] that provides a major contrast with the galaxy's usual upbeat tune and atmosphere.
* Haunty Halls Galaxy is a [[SarcasmMode delightful little place]] which features pathways that move between ghostly portals, forcing Mario to hurry along rapidly-moving platforms fading in and out of existence, and the first mission has an entire area where Yoshi's Bulb Berry power-up is needed to traverse - get knocked off of Yoshi, and the entire level will vanish, leaving the plumber to fall to his doom in the endless abyss. It's worth mentioning that the level also features the aforementioned Mattermouths, as well as ghostly Octoombas that are bigger than Mario.
** The game's main ghost-themed galaxies continue to make use of the [[LifeStream ominous background featuring ghostly faces floating towards a light]] used in much of Galaxy 1's, but now they also include [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXu_N5HZVUU a very menacing remix]] of ''Super Mario World's'' already creepy Ghost House theme, which sounds even more oppressive with the higher quality instruments than it did on the SNES.
** There's also the ''giant'' Boo and its lackeys which will suddenly appear behind Mario and give chase. Thankfully, they don't appear in the Prankster Comet mission... [[FromBadToWorse because the comet mission for this galaxy is a Clone Comet, and Cosmic Clones will give chase throughout the entire level instead.]] Have fun!
* The slide segment of Slipsand Galaxy features Rhomps, giant rolling stone enemies which roll towards Mario from behind and need to be avoided. They're very comparable to Spindels from ''64'', except unlike them and their toothy grin, Rhomps only have an emotionless, unchanging smiley face carved into them, something which [[DissonantSerenity presents a bit of an unnerving contrast]] with the fact they instantly flatten and kill Mario on contact.
* ShiverburnGalaxy, if Galaxy appears to take place in some kind of canyon, as the level is surrounded by two enormous rock structures that tower over it. If you change the camera to first-person mode and look toward the cliffs above you, you can see three shadowy alien figures on the cliff, (pictured above), watching you, and following you. No matter where you are in the Galaxy, [[ParanoiaFuel they will always be there, and they will always be watching.]] [[NothingIsScarier Not once is their existence so much as hinted to in the game itself, and even to this day, absolutely no official reference has ever been made to the figures or their presence.]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWhqKaV1Yhg The eerily tranquil music used for the galaxy really doesn't help matters either.]]
** The figures are frightening enough on their own, but the file names for Shiverburn Galaxy's textures somehow make them ten times worse. The file names?''[=BeyondHellValleySky=]'' ''[=BeyondHellValley=]'' is where they reside, and ''[=HellValleySkyTree=]'' is the names; name of the texture featuring the figures themselves; the ominousness of the trees were "trees" was already enough, but ''those names'' make them worse. The skybox implies that the cliff background is very far away, suggesting that these figures are somewhere between the size of a large ''large hill to mountain-sized.

*The black hole Flash Black Galaxy is a nyctophobe's worst nightmare - a near pitch-black stage which is only briefly illuminated by flashes of light that spawns at certain places, waiting to suck occur in time with beats in the music, which is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tf3xgSeG3E an ominous remix of the underground theme]]. The level itself takes Mario through a tall vertical house area and a maze-like series of rocky platforms above a dark pit, with the background appearing to be a dark nighttime forest with a large tower-like structure in if he falls off within range. The [[HellIsThatNoise sound too doesn't help matters at all]].
the distance.
* Boss Blitz Galaxy, a BossRush against five of the first game's bosses, features [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDCqMZDtFU0 a rather quiet but urgent-sounding track]] that lends the stage a frighteningly lonely atmosphere and gives the periods before each fight an incredibly prominent sense of danger. Not helped by the galaxy's nearly pitch-black space background that stands in sharp contrast to both games' largely colorful takes on cosmic backdrops, or the fact that the stage includes the likes of Bouldergeist, a boss who already provides the image for the first game's NightmareFuel page.
** Even worse? You have to go through it again under the conditions of a [[TimedMission Speedy Comet]], making the music's urgent feel even more apparent than before. Good luck!

* An EasterEgg: In the yard at the end of any ghost house, waiting long enough causes a ghostly figure to appear in the background just behind the fence and will vanish after a few seconds. This figure doesn't actually do anything and cannot be interacted with, but what makes it creepy is that the thing resembles the Shiverburn Galaxy figures. They're not trees. They're still watching.

The GBA remake made him even worse by adding sound effects and making him grow as he chases you, and in the Satellaview version, big Phantos twice the normal size appear and chase the player without keys needing to be there.
