Course | Big Boo's Haunt |
Go on a Ghost Hunt is the 1st star of Big Boo's Haunt. It is collected by defeating the Big Boo that spawns upon defeating the five small Boos.

It is possible to get this star with 0 A presses.
Mario needs to defeat all boos on the first floor and defeat King Boo to collect the star at the entrance to the second floor accessed by a rising staircase.
The main technique that allows Mario to access the second floor without jumping is the use of Vertical Speed Conservation (VSC) due to Mario's vertical speed not resetting to zero upon landing. Therefore, by making Mario land while he is still ascending, Mario can retain positive vertical speed, and the speed can be reactivated if Mario does not move at all except punching and breakdancing. Therefore, Pannenkoek takes advantage of the rising steps, which allows Mario to store vertical speed, punch to the edge of the step to reactivate the stored speed, and ledge-grab onto the second floor. There is only one chance to perform this technique, as the steps only rise once.
Later on, this technique is required for the remaining stars except for Ride Big Boo's Merry-Go-Round and 100 coin star, and therefore Mario would select the first mission to complete these stars.
The star is 281 units above the floor[1], barely reachable by dive-recovering.
