'''Super Mario 64 Big Star Secret''' is a partially-found [[YouTube]] [[screamer]] video based on the "secret" from Super Mario 64. The video was first uploaded to YouTube by Adam "LotusMan17" Bounds on August 15th, 2007, and was then deleted from the channel in late-2012. Aside from being just a Mario screamer, this is a lost screamer that anyone still searches for. Yet, even the people from Lost Media Wiki started hunting for the screamer from websites, which only lasted a year. A crappy screamer about unlocking Luigi in a such terrible quality is enough to provoke a huge amount of search from everyone with informations coming in hand recently. The video had amassed around 900,000 views at its peak.<ref name="LMWDiscord">[https://screamer.wiki/images/1/1c/LMWDiscord12.png LMW Discord #1]</ref>

The video shortly ended with the credits appearing from the top. The video used to have three different music, including as for the game-play and the credits, but it was muted due to copyright issues.

The video's audio has been muted to avoid copyright issues, so it was replaced with [https://009-sound-system.fandom.com/wiki/Dreamscape 009 Sound System's Dreamscape theme] in 2010.

Lotus has confirmed that the [[screamer]] took place inside the castle, mostly in the courtyard, rather than the ones claiming to have took place in the Bob-Omb Battlefield. Lotus mentioned that Mario has entered to an "alternate dimension", where textures (from which he drawn in MS Paint) are glitching out, possibly due to low memory issues with the emulator. On September 16, 2020, Lotus made two screenshots<ref>https://screamer.wiki/File:Mario_64_Screamer_Remake.png</ref><ref>https://screamer.wiki/File:Mario_64_Screamer_Remake_2.png</ref> as a remake such as for the thumbnail (depiction of Mario standing in front of the courtyard statue) and some part featuring Mario next to the castle.
