A holographic object processing apparatus and method are provided. The holographic object processing apparatus may include a display device to output a holographic object, a database (DB) to store change information of the holographic object according to a distance between a control object and the holographic object, a distance measurement sensor to measure the distance between the control object and the holographic object, and a processing unit to extract change information corresponding to the measured distance from the DB and change the holographic object based on the extracted change information. The display device may output the changed holographic object.
