Anomaly Description
The Wario Apparition is an anomaly that can appear in the hallway leading to the ninth stage of the game, Dire, Dire Docks, which can be found in the Castle Basement of Super Mario 64. It appears as a large floating Wario head as well as multiple other gruesome or mangled forms. It will chase the player down the Dire, Dire Docks hallway, though the hallway will become seemingly endless. If the Wario Apparition catches the player, the game will instantly crash or the player will lose all of their health and lose a life. The player will appear in front of the bridge leading to the castle door, and the game will continue as normal.

It is believed that the Wario Apparition actually appears differently, though reporters attempting to describe the true form of the Wario Apparition can suffer from memory loss, sudden unconsciousness and stroke-like symptoms. These symptoms have also been reported simply upon spotting the Wario Apparition or being caught by it.

The Wario Apparition is theorized to be a fail-safe for QARC, appearing when errors are detected, checksums fail, or variables read invalid integers. The Wario Apparition is also able to appear if the player "wants" Wario to appear in the game.

The Wario Apparition is believed to be one of the main sources of the 2020 Leakage, and thus a cover-up of the Wario Apparition is considered a Gamma level priorit

Multiple accounts of the Wario Apparition describe the Wario Apparition as a boss instead of an unstoppable obstacle. These accounts vary in the details of the fight, appearance and other specifics about the boss. Attached is an account from an unknown Fandom user going by the name Toh.

Due to the public knowledge of the Wario Apparition due to comments and posts such as this, cover-up of the Wario Apparition have such far failed. Further manuevers are currently underway.
