Appearances
Antasma first appears in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. In the story of the game, he is a bat king who feasted on nightmares. He kidnaps Princess Peach, and later steals the dream stone with Bowser. In the final area of the game, Neo Bowser Castle, Bowser betrays Antasma, and Antasma fights Mario and Dreamy Luigi in the dream world, as he wished upon the dream stone to be able to travel freely across the real and dream worlds. He is defeated, explodes and presumably dies.
