"Haha! Nothing's going to stop us from stealing this crystal, see!
Huhuhuh, yeah! Da Count's gonna make BANK wit' dis thing!
And by extension, US, see!!!
'Cause nobody stops da Boogiemen!"
― The Boogiemen
Harry and Larry, collectively referred to as the "Boogiemen", are a pair of minor antagonists first encountered in Stardust Woods, serving Koffin-K. They serve as the second midboss of Starlight Isles.
Profile[]
Appearance[]
Harry takes the form of a grey wolf-like monster (likely a werewolf), wearing only the vest, tie, and hat. His hat hides most of his face except for his mouth and eyebrows are shown as well.
Larry takes the form of a large, rotund Frankenstein's Monster, complete with bolts on his neck. His hat is badly damaged and his a spring showing. He wears a red suit and black pants.
Personality[]
Both of them are bumbling idiots with undeniable loyalty to Koffin K. They both cause mischief seemingly all for fun, like to pick up on others and do pretty much all sorts of stuff that Crossbones usually wouldn't let happen if he was present. They aren't against picking on eachother too, considering Harry and Larry can break into a fight over who's the one most loved, or just mess with the human when they're busy doing chores while they slack off. Still, they care for eachother considering they would rather die than to see one of their members die.
The only real difference is that Harry is more mischevious while Larry is more dumb... even though they're both mischevious and dumb in their own right. They're literally the EMBODIMENT of the "big henchman and scrawny henchman" trope related to many cartoons and even animes, so it would make sense that one is more of a brute than the other.
Main Story[]
Harry and Larry first appear trying to steal a crystal for the Count, but catch sight of the human. How they respond depends on the route.
Compassion/Neutral Route[]
Harry and Larry try to attack the human, but are foiled by Crossbones. However, they take advantage of his inability to cross into Navy territory so they can steal the crystal without repercussions. However, thanks to one of Papyrus's gadgets, they're scared off, thinking the Navy was nearby. They later appear again helping Mad Dummy lead Chara into Koffin Keep so the supervillain can forcibly recruit the human. They then drag Mad Dummy away on their boss's orders.
Chara is then forced to share the same room as the Boogiemen as they run about the Keep, causing mischief wherever they go (mainly for the human). Once Chara completes all of their tasks, Koffin-K calls for the human, having the Boogiemen take Chara up the stairs (before fleeing after realizing they never completed their own duties as well). Koffin-K then calls for the Boogiemen, and forces them to fight Chara. They can either be faced regularly without fear of killing them, or "compassionately", in which Chara makes the two fight one another by making them believe Koffin-K likes one over the other. This causes a huge brawl that Chara gets dragged into before all three crash into the courtyard. Koffin-K then sends all of his minions, the Boogiemen included, to the Starlight Festival to find and steal its "crown jewel", with the Boogiemen getting on a ferris wheel aptly named "The Crown Jewel". After Koffin-K is incapacitated peacefully, they stumble out of the ride before fleeing when ordered by the boss, and are not seen again.
Evacuation Route[]
When Harry and Larry first see the human, unaware of their true status, they believe them to be just an "eavesdropper" and prepare to attack. However, they are stopped by Crossbones, who mentions there being free ice cream at the shelter, with the duo flying off shortly afterwards. However, according to an Echo Flower, they later realize that the "eavesdropper" was a human, and become much more cautious. They later appear again helping Mad Dummy lead Chara into Koffin Keep so the supervillain can forcibly recruit the human. They then drag Mad Dummy away on their boss's orders.
At the entrance to the Starstruck Village, they are seen trying to push a piano out of the way, with Larry doing the heavy lifting. However, they notice the human, and with Harry's help, they are able to push the piano out of the way, but wind up unconscious as a result, and are unable to be attacked.
Ruthless Route[]
When Harry and Larry first see the human, unaware of their true nature as the killer human, they try to tell them to leave, only for Crossbones to appear using his powers and aptly warns them of Chara's nature. They don't believe him, and the two approach the human to egg them. Before Chara can attack them, Sans uses his powers to teleport them out of harms way. They later appear again helping Mad Dummy lead Chara into Koffin Keep so the supervillain can forcibly recruit the human. They then drag Mad Dummy away on their boss's orders.
At the entrance to the Starstruck Village, they are seen trying to push a piano out of the way, with Larry doing the heavy lifting. However, they notice the human, with Larry struggling to push the piano out of the way, despite Harry's pleas. After the piano is dislodged, they flee up to the cliff where Chara would gain a memory. The now cornered Boogiemen are left at the mercy of Chara as the human approaches. With no way out (their flying hats have run out of gas and Larry forgot the phone to call their boss) they are forced to fight Chara. Just before the fight, Larry makes a statement that the human has no SOUL, causing Chara to twitch. In the fight itself, it can only be won by bringing Larry's HP low enough to start wobbling before pushing him off the cliff, killing him. Harry then becomes so despondent that he allows Chara to kill him shortly afterwards.
