+------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% Introduction %%%%%| INTR | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== Introductions. My god, I HATE introductions. Not because they're boring to write, but I'm not really any good at them. I haven't been good at introductions for any type of writing... essays, playwrights, books, and FAQ work is no exception. For a while, I was a very, very active FAQ writer on GameFAQs. I slowly climbed up the ranks since August 2003, and in August of 2004 I sorta calmed down for a bit. Why? School, money, personal issues, social life. I've decided to get back into FAQing, after three and a half months of not doing FAQs. Like I expected, FAQ writing is still fun for me, although I won't be as active as I was before. Maybe a FAQ once every month or so. Before, every day was a FAQ work day, and it got a little insane and sad to tell you the truth. I had no time for more important things. Anyway, I'm quite proud of this FAQ and how it turned out. I don't think I'll be making any changes for a while, maybe never, since I think it's fine the way it is. ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% Version History %%%%%| CH02 | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== +-----------+---------------+-------------------------------------------------- |Version 1.0| Jan. 1, 2005 | Happy new year! And what better way to start off +-----------+---------------| the year than finishing this FAQ? It's done, and | no new changes should be added, though I'm not | marking it as final just in case I DO decide to | make some changes. +-------------------------------------------------- +-----------+---------------+-------------------------------------------------- |Version .9 | Dec.31, 2004 | Finally finished all the chapters, all I have to +-----------+---------------| do is format the guide. I can hopefully finish this | tomorrow. +-------------------------------------------------- +-----------+---------------+-------------------------------------------------- |Version .7 | Dec.29, 2004 | All the chapters have been added except for the +-----------+---------------| Introduction, Legal, Contact, and Credits. Those | will be added within the next few days or so. +-------------------------------------------------- +-----------+---------------+-------------------------------------------------- |Version .5 | Dec.21, 2004 | Added Area Four and the Boos chapter. I still have +-----------+---------------| a few more chapters to go before I format it, but | the guide should be done within the next ten or so | days. +-------------------------------------------------- +-----------+---------------+-------------------------------------------------- |Version .3 | Dec.14, 2004 | Nothing big, just addded Area Three. Still haven't +-----------+---------------| formatted it or anything, I just have the | information. +-------------------------------------------------- +-----------+---------------+-------------------------------------------------- |Version .1 | Dec. 4, 2004 | After a three and a half month break from FAQing, +-----------+---------------| my motivation has been refilled so I've decided to | start on guides agian. Instead of starting with | some gigantic project, I've decided to do a small, | realitively easy game (also the game that my first | crappy FAQ got posted). And if you haven't figured | out the game I've decided to do, it's Luigi's | Mansion. At the moment, I've gotten Areas One and | Two done, nothing else. +-------------------------------------------------- ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% Controls %%%%%| CONTROL | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== ~Control Stick: Use this to move Luigi around. Since this is a 3-D game, he can move in a three-hundred and sixty degree circle. ~C-Stick: Use this to move the vacuum around. Luigi must use both the control stick and C-Stick in cooperation with each other in order to capture ghosts. ~A button: Not that big of an importance in this game. Luigi can use the A button open doors. Also, when you're not in front of a door, you can shake an object to check for treasure/Boos or call out for Mario. There are many different calls for Mario, and the call depends on how much health Luigi has. ~B button: The B button is Luigi's flashlight. Hold B to turn it off. You can turn off your flashlight to get close to ghosts without them disappearing. ~L button: The L button triggers your element. If you have an element sucked into your vacuum, hold L and you'll spit it out. Push L in all the way to shoot a fire/water/ice ball out. ~R button: The R button is your vacuum. Hold it and Luigi will start sucking in. Along with the control/C-stick, this is the most used button in the game. ~X button: The X button is your "search" option. Press it and you'll go into a first-person view looking through your Game Boy Horror. If you search gallery ghosts, you can find weaknesses and you can also reveal Golden Mice and hidden areas. ~Y button: Bring up the map by pressing the Y button. Rooms you haven't been to are in grey, while rooms you have been to are in white. If you have a key, a key icon will hover above the door that the key goes in. The map will always come up automatically after you get a key. ~Z button: The Z button shows all your items. This will show you your treasure, elements, lost items, and gallery ghosts. If you select a gallery ghost, you can find out a little information about each one. -Standard Control- This is the more realistic control, but I never use it since it's frustrating. The Standard control will make Luigi turn in the direction that the control stick is pointing. This is irritating if you want to stay focused on one point, but just move left or right. I do NOT recommend this option if you're a beginner. You can choose the control you'd like at the beginning of the game, or at the pause screen. -Sidestep Control- This is the easier, more helpful control. Sidestep does just what its name suggests: Luigi will sidestep left or right if you move left or right while keeping his flashlight fixed in a certain direction. If you want to move Luigi around, use the C-Stick. ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% Walkthrough %%%%%| WALKTHR | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Area One Area1 | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Foyer- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After the introduction, Luigi will find himself in the Foyer. There's nothing downstairs and if you try to open the door you'll be blasted back and lose five hit points. Go up either set of stairs to find two more doors, one on your left and one in front of you. The one on your left is locked, as is the one in front of you. But if you try to open the one in front, you'll hear a strange noise downstairs. Head back down to see a spirit hovering with a key. It'll drop the key and disappear up into the Parlor, which is the door you just tried to open. Pick up the KEY (PARLOR). It just so happens to be the key to the door we just tried to go through, so head back upstairs and try to open the door again. This time, you'll be able to go through. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Parlor- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The moment you enter, you'll see a cinema scene of Luigi sneaking around the house. All of a sudden, the ghost that appeared before will show up. Just as it's about to grab Luigi, something will try to grab it. You'll see a little old man trying to suck it up with a vacuum. After the ghost and the man run around, the connection between the man and the ghost will break and the ghost will disappear. The man will introduce himself as Professor E. Gadd (E. Gadd. Cute) and will talk for a little before three more ghosts appear. Luigi and E. Gadd will run back to the Ghost Research Laboratory. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Ghost Research Laboratory- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is the only room outside the mansion, and it's where Gadd does his ghost studies. Luigi will explain that he and his mother won the mansion in a contest they didn't enter and Gadd will say that the mansion didn't appear until a few days ago. Gadd will explain that Luigi can't rescue his brother without any help so Gadd will teach Luigi how to deal with ghosts. You now can choose between Standard or Sidestep control. Choose which one that fits you best (I STRONGLY recommend Sidestep but it's your choice). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Training Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gadd will quickly explain how to control your flashlight and Poltergust 3000 but that's not enough; the control scheme is pretty damn complicated and you'll have to use the B button, R button, control stick, and C-stick all as a team in order to capture a ghost. Once you get it down, it's incredibly easy but you might need to go to the Training Room a few times before you think you're ready. A total of ten ghosts will pop out. You can't stun them with the flashlight from far away because the beam isn't strong enough. After you get the hang of things, you'll want to check out Gadd's gallery. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -The Gallery- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Gallery, simply put, is total crap at the moment because every single painting is empty. Why? Because all the ghosts escaped, that's why! Aside from rescuing your brother, a very very very very large sub-plot is trying to gather all the gallery ghosts in the mansion. Once you've checked everything out (which isn't much) you can return to the lab and from there, proceed to the mansion. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Foyer- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The game will begin for real now. There are no ghosts in the Foyer, only a crying Toad. Talk to Toad and you'll learn that he's upset because Mario is missing (my god, what a horrible game that was). Cheer him up and he'll turn on the lights and offer to save your game. Once the lights have been turned on in a room, they'll never go off (except for one point in Area Four but I'll get to that later). When the lights are on, it's time to scour the room for treasure and there just so happens to be a large amount in the Foyer. First, do not stay in the center of the room for long or the chandelier will fall down on you, causing damage. Stay back from it and focus your vacuum's power on the chandelier. If nothing happens, head upstairs and blow on it. A bunch of bills and coins will escape, so vacuum all of it up. Also, the little lamp in front of the shielded door on the first floor has a few coins, so make sure to blow on the lamp as well. One last thing: there is a sheet covering a mirror on the first floor. Suck the sheet up and you'll find the mirror behind it. In any part of the mansion that has a mirror (with the exception of the very large mirror in the Mirror Room) you can look through it with your Game Boy Horror and press A to be warped back to the Foyer. Remember this if you find yourself in a tight spot and need to get back to a safe place quickly. Now head upstairs and collect the coins if you haven't already, then head into the Parlor. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Parlor- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-----------------------------+ |BOO: Bamboo*** | |"I am BamBoo, if you please" | |HP: 30 | +-----------------------------+ Collect the coins around you and shine your flashlight on the chandelier. Shake the chandelier and a gold bar will pop out. After you collect that, you should notice six purple candles. Blow them all out and the painting will get a little too pissed. After all the paintings threaten you, your first few ghosts will pop out. This battle is for real so remember what you learned in the Training Room and take out the three ghosts (they only appear one at a time so it should be no problem). The lights will come on and a chest will appear. You'll get a reward after every battle, usually a key but sometimes the reward will be treasure. Check the cabinets and drawers for treasure, and you should get a few bills and coins. Now open the chest to get a KEY (WAITING ROOM) to the door that happens to be in the northern section of the room. *** - Once you free the Boo's halfway through Area Two, you can search the rooms for Boos. Almost every room in the mansion will have one, and you'll want to capture one as soon as you light a room. When you first travel through the Parlor, you won't be able to capture Boos so ignore the Boo info for now. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Waiting Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-------------------------+ |BOO: Bootha | |"Looking for me? Bootha!"| |HP: 50 | +-------------------------+ This is one of the rare rooms that doesn't give you anything after you clear the ghosts out. Nothing triggers the ghost's appearance this time, they'll just appear randomly. The orange ghosts are back but a new kind of ghost, the pink ghost, will appear. The only thing different about it is that it has twenty HP instead of ten and should also prove to be no problem for you. Make sure to search the drawers and chandeliers to find cash and coins, then head into the Closet. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Closet- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-----------------------------+ |BOO: GameBoo Advance | |"Wanna play GameBoo Advance?"| |HP: 30 | +-----------------------------+ This is the first room that should provide a challenge for Luigi. There is a new, tougher ghost in here which you'll find out about in a second. First, do NOT open the wardrobe doors until I tell you to. Take out the orange ghosts that appear and then a huge, green Garbage Can Ghost. These guys have forty HP and throw slippery bananas around. You'll need to be skillful in order to capture these guys without breaking connection or slipping on their bananas. Once you're sure all the ghosts in the room are gone (the lights will still be shut off but wait until ghosts stop appearing) then open the right wardrobe and a Speedy Spirit will appear. These guys look like regular blue ghosts but they are incredibly fast and will produce a ****load of cash if you catch them. If you fail to capture them the first time, then you won't get a second chance so you might want to save before attempting to catch these guys (there's a Toad on the balcony on the left, lucky you). Also, once the lights are on, the guys disappear forever which is why you always have to get them before you capture all the ghosts. Immediately stun it with your flashlight and start to vacuum it up. Luckily, Speedy Spirit's only have ten HP so the battle should be brief. Vacuum up all the cash and then open the other two wardrobe doors one at a time. The middle one will produce treasure and the left one will produce a Gold Ghost (orange ghosts). Once that ghost is gone, the lights will come on. No chest will appear but you'll find the key on a hanger. Vacuum the KEY (STUDY) down from its resting place and head through the door on your left. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Second Floor Balcony- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is crying Toad here. Talk to him and he'll turn on the lights as well as save your game. Later, when you have the Water Element Medal, you'll be able to come back here and water the plants for a blue diamond and a gold bar. From here, you'll want to return to the Closet and look through the mirror with your GBH to return to the Foyer. Head upstairs and through the door on your left to enter a second floor hallway. This is where the second half of Area Two takes place. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -West Wing- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No, not the president's office, just a small hallway in the western part of the mansion. Let me tell you right off hand, ghosts won't stop appearing in hallways until you clear the area in which they take place. However, they aren't big ghosts, only mice, bats, and incredibly weak bombers. Follow the line of coins to a door but do NOT enter it. The door is a fake, meaning when you try to open it you'll simply be slammed into the wall, losing hearts and coins. Don't go through a door that I don't mention and you should be fine. If you're unsure whether a door is fake or not, blow on it with your vacuum. If the door shakes, it's real but if it doesn't then it's fake. Head into the first room on Luigi's right as he enters the hallway. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Study- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +---------------------------+ |BOO: Taboo | |"Speak not my name: TaBoo!"| |HP: 50 | +---------------------------+ There's a Gold Mouse AND Speedy Spirit in here, which means LOTS of treasure. First, make sure you've saved because you don't want to miss out on either of these guys. The Speedy Spirit should be hiding in the desk, so shake that. If it doesn't appear, then search other places (including the rocking chair Neville's in) for it. Once you spot it, suck it up and collect the treasure. Now go behind the desk and look through your Game Boy Horror. You should spot a piece of cheese. Examine it and a Gold Mouse will pop out. Quickly go back to your regular view and suck up the mouse for a lot of treasure and a few diamonds. You should now have over 150 coins, over 100 bills, and a couple of diamonds. That's enough treasure hunting for now though. You notice I have said nothing so far of the ghost that rests in the rocking chair. That's Neville, your first gallery ghost. Neville needs to be put away into a painting but the gallery ghosts can't be caught like normal ghosts can. Each gallery ghost has a different weak spot, but Neville's is very noticeable. Face away from the rocking chair with your flashing off (hold B). When Neville starts to yawn, turn around and release B to stun him. Quickly turn your vacuum onto Neville. Every gallery ghost (with the exception of the final boss) has 100 HP and slowly get harder to catch. If you read my introduction, I explained how to catch gallery ghosts but here's a quickly summary: the ghosts will move all over the room trying to escape so you have to always try to face them with the C-stick while rapidly tilting the control stick in the opposite direction. Pearls will drop from the ghosts as you drain their hit points: a small pearl for ten points in a single pull, a medium pearl for fifty points in a single pull, and a large pearl for ninety points in a single pull. If you get only small pearls, you'll get a bronze-framed picture in the gallery. Medium pearls will get you a silver-framed picture while a big pearl will net you a gold-framed picture. Each picture is different, with the gold ones always being the coolest. A poison mushroom will drop from the ghost overtime so make sure to avoid that because it will cause you to lose the connection with your ghost. Once Neville has been capture, the lights will turn on. Collect the pearls and search the desk and chandelier for money. The books hold some information on gallery ghosts and mice so read them if you want. Then open the chest to get a KEY (MASTER BEDROOM). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Master Bedroom- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +----------------------------+ |BOO: Boolicious | |"I am the yummy Boolicious!"| |HP: 30 | +----------------------------+ This room doesn't hold anything super special, but it DOES hold Lydia, the second gallery ghost. Once again, this ghost has a specific weakness and it's harder to point out than Neville's. No matter, me frog is here to save you! Anyway, you'll find that Lydia likes to stare at the mirror and comb her hair. That's it. Nothing else. If you've seen "Ring" then you'll get a creepy resemblance. Anyway, Lydia doesn't like wind. I have no idea why, she's a ghost, but she doesn't like it. Go over to the curtain's and pull the one closest to Lydia all the way back. When she looks over and notices the draft, shine your light and suck her up. She should be another easy one, so you should be able to get the big pearl. When she's gone, the lights will come up and a chest will appear with a KEY (NURSERY). Scour the room for treasure, as usual, and then head off to the final portion of Area One. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Nursery- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +----------------------------+ |BOO: Turboo | |"I am Turboo, and off I go!"| |HP: 50 | +----------------------------+ This room holds the boos, a big heart, and (later) a Speedy Spirit. The Speedy Spirit will appear in the crib during the blackout of Area Four (I'll remind you to go back here in case you forget). If you're low on health, you can open the drawer on your right to find a heart that will restore fifty hit points (very convenient when you're in a tight spot). Now go over to the rocking horse and collect the coins. Then make the rocking horse move by blowing on it and the baby, Chauncey, will wake up. He'll ask if you want to play with him. You have no choice, so quickly turn around and vacuum up the ball. It'll stick to your vacuum so turn around and face Chauncey, then release the ball at him. This will knock Chauncey back. That's it. You beat the boss. Actually, that was a really crappy warm-up. The real boss is about to come. Chauncey will make you grow small. Really small. Then he'll transport you to his crib. Then... well, what do you think happens? Boss section. Duh. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Nursery- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The lights will come on and a giant chest will appear. You can search the room for treasure, although you'll only find a few coins. Then open the chest to get a KEY (FIRST FLOOR HALL). Suddenly, Gadd will call from the GBH. You'll automatically return to the lab after every boss battle to empty your Poltergust 3000 of gallery ghosts. -Ghost Research Laboratory- Back here, Gadd will show you his Ghost Portificationizer (long word) which turns ghosts into visible forms, and then into paintings (he also says it works in reverse as well... who cares?). Once they're all paintings again, you can see what frame color you got and you can also add up how much cash you got. You should have over eight million right now if you got the Speedy Spirits and the Gold Mouse but if you don't have it, don't fret. You get a lot more in Areas Two, Three, and Four. You can now go to the Gallery to view your portraits or return to the mansion to start Area Two. +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Area Two Area2 | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Foyer- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now that you have Chauncey's Pink Key, you can enter the Main Hall, which is where you'll access basically every part of the mansion. This is where the real game begins; the areas are longer, the ghosts are tougher, the money is high, and there's a bunch of new upgrades you can get. Oh, and you get to fight the Boos as well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Main Hall- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The main hall connects you to the basement area and the second floor, as well as an extra eleven areas which lead to new areas which lead to new areas which lead to... yeah. So this area has a lot of mice and bats, including a single gold mouse that will appear one out of every four or so times you visit the hallway. A noise will sound when it appears, so make sure to grab it for the cash because, believe me, you want that mouse. Anyway, some ghosts will drop down, but they have zero HP so simply stunning an activating your vacuum will have them sucked up. They keep re- spawning, however, until you beat the area boss which is Bogmire. So I suggest you just ignore the ghosts as you head through the hall. Your first destination is the bathroom. Go right, up, left, and up until you reach the back of the hallway. Enter the room on your left, which is unlocked. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Bathroom- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is no treasure in here, no gallery ghosts, no Boo... nothing. Just a key which you need to get. There's nothing behind the shower curtain so don't bother. Just wait for the two ghosts to pop up. These new Grabbing Ghosts will sneak up on you and grab you, rapidly depleting HP. Shake the control stick left and right to get the ghosts off your back. Suck them up the same way as you do all ghosts and the lights will come up and a key will be revealed on the upper shelf. Knock it down and grab the KEY (BALLROOM). Now return to the Main Hall and head to the Ballroom. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Ballroom- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +------------------------+ |BOO: Boo La La | |"Hello! I am Boo La La!"| |HP: 60 | +------------------------+ This is a big room containing a new ghost and a gallery ghost, as well as some treasure. There are no Speedy Spirits or Gold Mice. There are Shy Guy ghosts. There are three per dance floor but they appear in pairs of twos. You'll want to suck off the masks first, so get close to the Shy Guys and activate your vacuum. Without the masks, the Shy Guys will try to hide their faces. Shine your light and vacuum these guys up (20 HP each). When all six Shy Guys are gone, the Whirlwinds will appear on the left ballroom floor. Stand on the floor and face away from them. If you face them, they'll disappear (flashlight on or off) and if you step off the floor they'll disappear. Wait until the Whirlwinds spin and bow, then shine your light on them. You'll be capturing both at the same time, but they stupidly never let go making it all too easy for you. This ghost might be a bit tougher than the Area One ghosts but it should still be pretty simple (the spinning floors make it a little more difficult). Once they're gone, the lights will come on, a chest will appear, and the floors will stop spinning. Search the chandeliers for treasure and a gold bar, then open the chest to find a key to the Storage Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Storage Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-----------------------+ |BOO: GameBoo | |"Just call me GameBoo!"| |HP: 50 | +-----------------------+ First off, a Speedy Spirit rests in the chair on your right. Shake the chair and the ghost will appear. Capture it for a bunch of treasure and cash, and then defeat the Purple Punchers and the Grabbing Ghosts. There should be four or five of them. The lights will then come on and you'll see that this room really doesn't have anything special in it and that it seems to be a dead end. YEAH BUT GUESS WHAT? YOU'RE WRONG CUZ YOU SUCK! Look in the mirror to see a button reflected in it. The wall opposite the mirror has a button. If you can't find it, look at the wall with your GBH so you can view it for yourself. Press this button and the wall will roll back, revealing another part of the room. Here, you'll find a trapdoor and a poster with "DANGER" on it. Pull the poster (vacuum it off the wall for those of you who don't understand) to reveal another switch. Seeing as how this switch was covered by a poster marked "DANGER" then we really shouldn't press this but... do it anyway. Wow, if you did that then you're an idiot. Fifty Boos plus King Boo (the one with the jewel on his head if you couldn't tell) will appear. Just before they attack Luigi, King Boo will notice the Poltergust 3000 on Luigi's back and will all scatter in different directions. You'll then get a call from Gadd on your GBH. He'll invite you back to his lab, which Luigi does. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Ghost Research Laboratory- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gadd will explain that it was the Boos that took Mario, but he has no idea what they've done to him. Seeing as how Mario had been able to take on Boos before, I don't know why he can't do it now but oh well. Gadd will then show you the Boo Radar (you know how I remember the spelling of radar? It's a palindrome! COOL HUH?), a GBH feature that tells you when Boos are nearby. Blue means no Boo is in the room, flashing yellow means there is a Boo in the room (it flashes faster as you get closer) and red means that you're right next to the Boo. Boos, however, can trick you by throwing out bombs or balls and then you'll have to find them again. I'll explain more about Boos in a second, but now it's time to return to the mansion. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Foyer- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There are no Boos in the Foyer (or any other small room) but you need to backtrack your Area One steps starting from the Foyer, then head into all the Area Two rooms you've been in so far. Boos only show up in a lit room, so you won't get a flashing radar in a room until it has been lit up. At the moment, you can capture eight Boos. Since Boos always appear in the light, you'll be able to deplete their HP about twice as fast as normal. However, you can't lock on to them so you have to manually follow them with the C-Stick. Sometimes, the Boos will go through the wall to the next room. If they escape into a dark room, it will be very hard to capture them since their HP depletes about half as fast as normal ghost's HP does. Try to lure them back into a lit room if that happens. Sometimes, the Boos will escape entirely. When that happens, you have to wait ten or fifteen minutes for the Boo to return to its original room. It might be a good idea to keep a checklist handy so you know what Boos you have or haven't captured. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Washroom- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Once you've gone through the previous rooms and collected all the Boos, it's time to go to the Washroom. Gadd will tell you to go there after five Boos have been captured (if you try to enter before you have five Boos a nervous Toad will tell you that the room is occupied). After you have your Boos, enter the room that is below the Bathroom. There is a crying Toad here. Talk to him and he'll say that he dropped something really important in the toilet. Tell him not to worry and he'll turn the lights on. After saving your game, shake the light for a few coins and then shake the toilet to have a KEY (FORTUNE-TELLER'S ROOM) pop out. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Fortune-Teller's Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The lights are off, but no ghosts are going to appear in here. There's a Boo in here, but the lights are gonna go on late in Area Three, which is quite some time from now. There is a gallery ghost in here, Madame Clairvoya. You can talk to her if you focus your light on her crystal ball but she has nothing for you now. BTW, Madame Clairvoya is the only nice gallery ghost that actually tries to help you (when you try to capture her, even though she lets you, it's still quite a struggle). Anyway, there is ONE thing that you can do here. Go behind Clairvoya's little tent and look through your Game Boy Horror to find a piece of cheese. Examine it and a Golden Mouse will pop it. Vacuum it up for a bunch of treasure. Yay. Now head through the door on the right. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Mirror Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-----------------------------+ |BOO: Kung Boo | |"Feel the wrath of Kung Boo!"| |HP: 40 | +-----------------------------+ The mirror in here is the only mirror in the game that doesn't allow you to warp to the Foyer, probably because it is totally different from the other mirrors (it's about 10 times bigger). Anyway, this is where you'll get the Fire Element Medal but you have to watch out for the Grabbing Ghosts. This time, they're invisible until you shine your light on them. However, if you look in the mirror you can see their reflection and you can also see their shadow (though in a dark room, their shadow isn't much help). Make sure to shake the control stick left and right if you are grabbed. Once the ghosts have been wiped up, a huge chest will appear, the lights will come on, and the door... will remain locked. Open the chest to grab the FIRE ELEMENT MEDAL. Gadd will contact you and say how this medal allows you to shoot flames from your Poltergust 3000 by holding L. However, you must have vacuumed in a fire element first and those can be found in fire (mainly candles that never go out). In the lower-right corner, there is on such candle. Shake it and a fire element will pop out. Suck it in and a meter will appear showing you how much fire energy you have. Light all six candles in this room to unlock the door. Quickly scour the area for any treasure and return to the Fortune-Teller's Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Fortune-Teller's Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Once again, you can't light the room. You can, however, light the twelve candles in the four corners of the room now that you have your Fire Element Medal. Once all twelve are lit, a key will appear on a pillar. Knock it down and grab the key to the Laundry Room, which is where we're going next. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Laundry Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +----------------------------+ |BOO: Boogie | |"Yow! Get down! I'm Boogie!"| |HP: 40 | +----------------------------+ This room holds a couple of Grabbing Ghosts and a few Purple Punchers. Nothing new here, take them out to turn on the lights. Since this is a small room, the Boo Radar will start beeping like mad so take out the Boo before you do anything else. Also, the door at the northern part of the room is fake. Now that you have the power of fire, you can burn fake doors so do that with this one so you don't get confused. Open the chest to reveal lots and lots of treasure. Yep, this room doesn't have a key, it just has lots of treasure. Now shake the washing machine and MARIO'S CAP will pop out. You can bring this to Madame Clairvoya later (you can do it now in fact but wait until you get Mario's other four items). Now head back out into the Main Hall. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Main Hall- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You might've noticed the candelabra floating around the Main Hall. Yes, that serves a purpose. Light all three candles and Shivers, the mansion's butler, will appear. The fire will freak him out and he'll run (which is a very slow drag) to the Butler's Room. You can follow him into the Laundry Room and then the Butler's Room if you want, but it's easier to just rush there now to get some things done. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Butler's Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-------------------------+ |BOO: PeekaBoo | |"You found me, PeekaBoo!"| |HP: 40 | +-------------------------+ If you arrived quickly, well before Shivers, then you can defeat some mice and grab a blue gem. After you wipe out the mice, head to the bucket in the lower left-hand corner and shake it. A blue gem will pop out. Now simply wait for Shivers to come in. He'll head over to the chair and sit on the fire, trying to extinguish it. Now shine your light at Shivers before he disappears and he'll be stunned. Grab him and try to vacuum him up without coming into contact with any spare mice. This room is pretty damn cramped so try not to get hit by the poisonous mushroom as you are sucking up Shivers. Once he's gone, the lights will come up. Grab the KEY (CONSERVATORY). We can go over to the Conservatory or we can get a ****load of treasure by going into an extra room, the Hidden Room. After you search the Butler's Room for treasure, go over to the right side, above the toilet paper. Look through your GBH to find a mouse hole. Examine it and a vortex will appear. Exit your GBH and you'll be sucked in through the vortex and into the Hidden Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Hidden Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +---------------------------+ |BOO: GumBoo | |"It's my own self, GumBoo!"| |HP: 40 | +---------------------------+ Ooooh... Hidden Room... yum... Anyway, this thing contains a new type of ghost, a ****load of treasure, five gold bars, and one blue, red, and green diamond. Also, during the blackout in Area Four, there will be a Speedy Spirit. I'll tell you to come back here when the blackout occurs just in case you forget. First, you'll want to collect the gold bars in the vases on each side of the room. Then you'll want to open the far left chest (make SURE you have a Fire Element though) and a Flash will pop out. This icy guy must be blasted with fire before you can harm it. So give it a blast to make it lose five hit points, then stun it with the light and suck up the fifteen remaining points. The upper-left chest also has a Flash, as well as the middle chest and the far right chest. Once all of the Flash ghosts are gone, the room will light up. Capture the Boo and shake the chandelier for a bunch of cash. Open the remaining chests for some cash, then open the green one for a _LOT_ of money. Now head to the left wall and look through the mouse hole again to be warped back to the Butler's Room. From here, head to the Conservatory. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Conservatory- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +------------------------+ |BOO: Boomeo | |"Wherefore am I Boomeo?"| |HP: 40 | +------------------------+ I love this room, partially because you can play the old Mario Bros. theme song in it and it sounds so good. You'll find a bunch of instruments here: a saxophone, a harp, a cello, a bells set, three drums, and a piano. Activate all except the piano to hear the Mario Bros. tune. Walk over to the piano and Melody Pianissima will appear. She'll compliment you on your music and then play a song. The song will either be the famous Mario Bros. "Underwater" tune or the Super Mario Bros. 3 tune. Answer the question correctly and she'll get angry and throw her sheet music around (if you get it wrong, she'll disappear and you'll have to leave and re-enter, then re-activate the instruments). Vacuum up her sheet music and Melody will moan in frustration. Shine your light on her, then suck her up. Once the lights are on, capture the Boo and then search for money. Open the chest to get a KEY (DINING ROOM). By the way, there's a Speedy Spirit in here when the blackout occurs. I'll remind you to visit this area in case you forget. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Dining Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +----------------------------+ |BOO: Boodacious | |"Name's Boodacoius! Got it?"| |HP: 80 | +----------------------------+ This room holds a lot of treasure, and a gallery ghost. There are no regular ghosts here, but there is a Speedy Spirit, and we're gonna get that first. Head over to the left side of the room and open the cabinet to have the ghost pop out. Quickly stun and vacuum it, then collect all the treasure that it leaves behind. Now head over to the left cabinet and open it for some treasure. Collect a Fire Element if you haven't already and light all the candles on the table. Mr. Luggs will appear, eating his food. Vacuum up his food and it'll slowly disappear. He'll call for the waiters to come. If they arrive before the food is gone, stun and vacuum them up so they aren't a bother. Once all of Mr. Luggs's food is gone, he'll go psychotic and start spitting fireballs at you. A lot of fireballs. A LOT of fireballs. Simply move back and forth to avoid them (sorta like how you avoided Chauncey's rocking horses). When Mr. Luggs collapses from exhaustion, stun him and suck him up. Personally, since he's so large and since this room is huge, I think he's one of the easier ghosts to catch, though some people may disagree. When he's gone, capture the Boo and open the chest to get quite a bit of treasure. Just a quick treasure check. If you've been following the guide, you should have close to or over 350 coins, over 300 bills, at least 10 gold bars, at least 25 small pearls, 20 medium ones, and hopefully at least 3 big ones. You should have three blue gems, three green gems, two red gems, and one silver gem. You're about to get a lot more money though, so don't worry if you're a little short. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Kitchen- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +--------------------------+ |BOO: Booligan | |"Boy howdy, I'm Booligan!"| |HP: 80 | +--------------------------+ There's a Golden Mouse here that shows up randomly, as well as a Speedy Spirit, and the Water Element Medal. First, go over to the oven on the left and open it up to reveal the Speedy Spirit. Stun and vacuum it up for quite a bit of cash. Now open the other oven up and light the pot on fire to reveal a red diamond. Grab that and exit the room. A Golden Mouse appears randomly in this room, so exit and re-enter the room until you hear the sound that means the mouse is out. Quickly vacuum it up for some more cash. You need all the mice and Speedy Spirits you can get for the S ranking so keep at it until you have the mouse. Now open the cabinet at the front and check to see if there's any cash. Now open the refrigerator from afar (otherwise you'll get hurt) and a Flash will pop out. Stun it with fire and then vacuum it up to turn the lights on. A chest will appear containing the WATER ELEMENT MEDAL. Gadd will explain that it has purifying effects (duh, it's water). Search the sink for a Water Element and vacuum it up to replace your fire element with water. Now, before you go any further, you'll want to backtrack to previous rooms (to be specific, Second Floor Balcony and the Master Bedroom) and water the plants there to get some gems. Also, make sure you have the Golden Mouse from the Main Hall. Enter from the Foyer and exit and re-enter until you hear the sound confirming the appearance of the mouse. Chase it down the hall and... you know the drill. Once you've done all that, return to the Kitchen and extinguish the flames blocking the door. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Boneyard- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here, you can collect a gallery ghost and, later, a very very valuable diamond worth 20,000,000 G. First, head over to Spooky's (that's the dog) water bowl and fill it. Spooky will wake up, but then chase Luigi around the yard. After a while, Mr. Bones will wake up and try to shut Spooky up. Capture him and he'll drop a bone, which Spooky will run over to. While Spooky is distracted by the bone, stun him and suck him up. Spooky is one of the harder ghosts to catch, so don't kill yourself if you don't get a big diamond your first try. Once he's gone, the lights will go on. Now head over to the plant seed in the garden. Water it until it grows a little. If you water this plant after Bogmire's battle and after the battle with Boolossus, then you'll get the diamond (I'll remind you, don't worry). Head over to the doghouse and look through with your GBH. Examine the hole and a vortex will appear. Exit the GBH to be sucked into the vortex. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Graveyard- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is where the boss, Bogmire, lies. First, go to the right and shake the pipe to make a red diamond pop out. Now go over to the graves and shake all of them to make some Mr. Bones pop out. Vacuum up all of the Mr. Bones and a glow will appear around the head gravestone. One of the gravestones has a big heart that restores fifty HP so grab that if you need to and then head up to the big gravestone to be warped to the boss arena. Obviously, see the bosses. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Graveyard- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Back here, a chest will appear with the Green Key, which unlocks the path to the garden and the main area of the second floor. Once you have it, Gadd will contact you and ask that you come back to his lab, which is what you're gonna do of course. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Ghost Research Laboratory- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Once again, the Ghost Portrificationizer will be used to turn the ghosts into paintings. You should've caught five gallery ghosts this time (Mr. Luggs was an optional one but I really hope you got him anyway). Also, you should have over 30,000,000 G. If you do, you're in good shape for the best ranking at the end of the game. Now you should head to the gallery, especially if you got a lot of gold portraits. The gold's for Spooky and Bogmire look pretty damn cool so I hope you got those. Once you're ready, return to the mansion to begin Area Three. +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Area Three Area3 | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Boneyard- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From the Foyer, immediately head to the Boneyard and water that plant again. If you watered it before you faced Bogmire, then it should be a small flower. Once watered after you fight Bogmire, it'll grow into a bigger flower. You need to water it once more, but you can only do that during Area Four (I'll remind you at the beginning again). Now head to the Main Hall and go through the shielded door with your Green Key to open a path to the Courtyard. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Courtyard- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lots o' crap to do here. We have some ghosts to capture some treasure to earn, a letter to find, a Toad to cheer, and a chest that needs revealing. First things first, wipe out all the little floating Flying Fish all over the place. Then walk around the area and a couple of Ceiling Surprises and Purple Bombers will drop down. Vacuum all these 0 HP ghosts up and the lights will come on (it's not much brighter, but it helps). A chest will appear, so open it and a bunch of money will pop out. Vacuum up all of this and then listen. You can hear screaming... hmmm... We're not going to locate the voice just yet. Go over to the fountain and grab a Water Element (by means of the fountain) if you don't have one. Water all the plants you see and treasure and a green stone will pop out. After you have all that, use the ladder to climb down into the well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Bottom of the Well- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There's nothing much to this area. Go right, up to the little hole, and a cut-scene will occur of Luigi looking through the hole to find Mario... trapped in a painting! HOLY POOP ON A STICK! Seeing as how Nintendo isn't stupid, they didn't make it so Luigi could climb through the hole, making us have to go through two more areas. Oh well. After the cut-scene, turn around and head back. A Ceiling Surprise will pop out. Oh, the horror. Vacuum it up and it'll drop a KEY (REC ROOM). Now climb back up to the Courtyard. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Courtyard- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You'll want to go right, over to the birdhouse, and shake it. Out will pop MARIO'S LETTER, the second of the five dropped items. Head over to the shack and use your vacuum from a distance to open it (if you try to open it normally, you'll take damage). Inside is a crying Toad. Cheer him up and he'll save your game. Now you've done everything you can do, so head into the Rec Room by means of the door right next to you. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Rec Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +--------------------------+ |BOO: Booregard | |"It is I, fair Booregard!"| |HP: 100 | +--------------------------+ This mansion has everything, doesn't it? Except an elevator, which would've been handy but oh well. Anyway, this room has nothing but treasure, an optional gallery ghost, and an optional key that allows you to create a shortcut. First, we have to get the Speedy Spirit. Go down and look to your right to find a bicycle machine thingymbob. Check the lower one and the Speedy Spirit will pop out. Stun it and vacuum it up for your usual treasure reward. Now head over to the punching bags in the center. Biff Atlas is lifting weights (with no one to spot him I might add... he probably died by being crushed). What you want to do is hit one of the punching bags (press A) so that it whacks Biff Atlas (how this actually hurts him, I have no idea). He'll get mad and come after you. Run away and hit him once more with a punching bag. He'll get super-angry and start waving his fists around, but one more whack will knock him out. While he's down, stun him and then vacuum him up. The obstacles in the middle of the room should stop him from going anywhere, so this should be an easy capture for you. Once he's gone, a treasure chest will appear containing a lot of valuable things, including a few gold bars and a crystal diamond. Once you have everything in the chest, search the area for money (I know the left chandelier should have a gold bar) and then walk over to the treadmill. Get on and start running. Run for a while and a key will pop out. This KEY (1ST FLOOR) will allow you to access a shortcut that keeps you from having to always go through the Courtyard when you want to get to this side of the mansion. Exit through the door south of you. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Main Hall- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Since we haven't been in this area yet, it's still dark. Using the 1st Floor key you just got, open the door on your left. This will save you at least thirty seconds or so, probably more, each time you want to transfer from the first floor to the second. Right now, we're going down to the basement to get a Speedy Spirit (that will become unavailable when we actually have to go into the room). Head south and turn right, then go through the door. Climb down the steps into the Basement. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Basement- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We're only in here briefly, since there's really no place you can go except for one unlocked room. Go up to enter the Breaker Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Breaker Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This room will save your ass later in the game, but for now it just contains an endless supply of blue mice. Check the table to your left and the Speedy Spirit will pop out. Vacuum it up and collect the treasure it leaves behind. There's nothing else you can do here so exit and return to the Main Hall, then go back to the part that is still dark. From here, head to the Main Hall on the second floor. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Main Hall 2F- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Right up here, you'll notice a room that has a fire blocking it. You can access this room now, but we don't need to just yet so wait. Go through the door into the actual Main Hall 2F. There's a Golden Mouse in here that appears randomly so if you want, enter and exit the room until a chime tells you that the mouse is out. The mouse appears rarely, so it may take a while. Anyway, head left all the way and go through the far left door. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Washroom- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Open the toilet and a Temper Terror will pop out. These guys need to be sprayed with water before they can be defeated, so give it a blast of water and then vacuum up the remaining five hit points. The lights will come on and a chest full of money will appear. Collect the money, then exit the room and return to the door covered with fire. Extinguish the fire and enter to reach the Tea Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Tea Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +---------------------------------+ |BOO: Mr. Boolangles | |"Jingle, jangle, Mr. Boojangles!"| |HP: 50 | +---------------------------------+ First, go right and open the drawers to find a red gem. Yay. There's a Golden Mouse in here, and we're not gonna pass up an opportunity to grab a creature as beautiful as that, are we? Nope. There's only two ghosts so wipe out one of them (ONLY ONE) and then go behind the table on the left. Here, you'll find a piece of cheese so look through your GBH and examine it. The mouse will pop out. Give chase and suck it up to grab the treasure in all its beauty. Vacuum up the remaining ghost and the lights will come on and a large chest will appear on the table. TOO BAD YOU CAN'T REACH THE TABLE! No matter though. After catching the Boo and collecting any spare treasure, walk over to the lower right-hand corner and step on the red and blue circle to reverse the gravity. Walk over to the table and step on the circle on the ceiling to drop down onto the table. Open the chest for the ICE ELEMENT MEDAL, the last of the medals. You can shoot out blasts of ice by hold L all the way in, freeze water, and freeze ghosts. It's the best of the elements, in my opinion. Now you must head to the Bathroom, which is the door above the one to the Washroom. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Bathroom- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ With the power of ice, you can capture Miss Petunia, the gallery ghost in the bathroom. Pull back the curtain to reveal a very fat, naked ghost. Actually it's just a very fat ghost. The idea of WHY Luigi will pull back the curtain when the shadow of the ghost fits a "Shallow Hal" description is unknown to me. Freeze her with ice and then stun her with your light, then suck her up. Since the room is small, she won't have anywhere to go but that also means that the poison mushroom has a better chance of getting you, so watch out for that. Once she's gone, collect the pearls and open the chest for a KEY (BILLARDS ROOM) that is located in the Main Hall of the first floor. So we have to head back down there now. However, before you do that, take a trip to Nana's Room, which is the door opposite the Bathroom door. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Nana's Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +----------------------------+ |BOO: LimBooger | |"Stinky, stinky, LimBooger!"| |HP: 100 | +----------------------------+ This is a rare part of the game where you can visit a few rooms in any order so I'm just going here next because it's directly across from where we just came from. First, a Speedy Spirit is located somewhere in the right side of the room. Head over there and check the armchair (not the couch) to make the Spirit appear. After grabbing the money it leaves behind, it's time to capture Nana. Walk over to the bowl of yarn and press A to knock the yarn over. Nana will get pissed at you and start moving around in her rocking chair firing... laser beams at you. Odd... anyway, vacuum up a yarn ball, aim it at Nana, and release it. If you hit her, she'll get angry and speed up. You have to hit her with all three yarn balls to make her vulnerable. If you miss with just one, or if you take too long, Nana will disappear and you'll have to exit and re-enter the room, then start the process over again. Once Nana is vulnerable, stun her and suck her up. When she's gone, open the chest to get a KEY (TWIN'S ROOM). After you get the Boo and any spare treasure, head back down to the first floor and into the Billards Room (use the map on your GBH if you get confused). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Billards Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +--------------------------+ |BOO: Boohoo | |"Snifff... I'm... Boohoo!"| |HP: 50 | +--------------------------+ This room is optional as well, but it contains another Gallery Ghost and a Speedy Spirit. It's just you and Slim Bankshot here, so you don't need to worry about any other ghosts attacking while you try to capture the Speedy Spirit. Walk over to the table in the lower right corner and shake it to make the ghost pop out. After capturing it, head over to watch Slim Bankshot play pool. After he hits the three balls, vacuum one of them up. Aim the ball at the cue stick (since Slim turns invisible when you face him, you have to rely on his cue stick) and release to damage him. He'll hit another three balls and you must use a ball again to damage him. Do this three times and he'll bend over in what looks like pain (don't ask). Now's your chance to grab him! After he's gone, the room will light up and a chest will appear. This chest contains another crystal diamond, making it your third one, and a few gold bars as well as coins and cash. Let's do a quick treasure count here, just to make sure you're caught up. You should have, if you've been following this guide, over 675 coins, 550+ bills, 25+ gold bars, 55+ small pearls, 30+ medium pearls, and 5+ large pearls. You should have seven blue diamonds, six green, seven red, and three crystal. If you're a little behind, don't worry because sometimes cash appears randomly. Once you've searched this area for treasure, it's time to head right, into the Projection Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Projection Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-------------------------+ |BOO: ShamBoo | |"Fresh, clan... ShamBoo!"| |HP: 50 | +-------------------------+ I've always wanted a projection room... those things are cool. Anyway, it seems that there are no ghosts, but you have to activate the projector and start the empty film reel, and then they'll show up. The Grabbing Ghosts are invisible, but you can see their shadows on the screen and the puffs of smoke in which they appear. The Grabbing Ghosts will appear one by one, but eventually two at a time will appear and, at one point, three at a time. Once they've all gone a treasure chest containing MARIO'S GLOVE will appear. By the way, the Boo in this room should be your twentieth Boo if you've been capturing the Boos in every room you've visited so far. After searching the area for treasure, we have to go back to an early part of the game, the West Wing. There, you can use your key you got from Nana to open the only remaining locked door. By the way, a fun little thing you can do in this room is pull on the projection screen with your vacuum. Go back as far as you can and then let go. A huge poster of a Boo will appear with the message "Get out of here!" Nothing happens, but it's a cool easter egg. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Twins' Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +--------------------------------+ |BOO: Booris | |"Call me Booris! Und be avraid!"| |HP: 100 | +--------------------------------+ There's a Speedy Spirit in here... we seem to have a lot of those show up now, don't we? Go over to the bunk and vacuum the top bunk. The Speedy Spirit will appear up there so stun it and vacuum it, then collect the treasure as usual. Now shine your light up onto the mobile. Vacuum it and start circling with the C-stick to make it spin, waking the Twins up. They'll ask Luigi what's he's doing by himself, then offer to play a game of hide-and-seek. Exit the room and they'll tell you that it's safe to come in. There are five boxes in the room, two of them contain the Twins. The Twins are in boxes that shake when you vacuum them. After you find both Twins, they'll hop on their toys and star moving around the room. You have to capture them one at a time while the other one is trying to attack you so this can be a bit difficult. Once both Twins are gone, the lights will come on and a chest will appear. Open it to get MARIO'S SHOE. After searching for treasure and grabbing the Boo, return to the Main Hall 2F and head through the only unlocked door you haven't gone through yet. Make sure, however, to bring fire with you. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Astral Hall- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +--------------------------+ |BOO: Boonswoggle | |"I'm Boonswoggle! Plooah!"| |HP: 100 | +--------------------------+ The Astral Hall is a small, cramped room with nothing but access to the next room, the Observatory. Using the Fire Element you should've brought, light the fifteen candles and Golden Ghosts, Shy Guys, and Grabbing Ghosts will appear. Wipe out all of them and the lights will come on. Shake the chandelier for money and grab the Boo, then head through the door on your right to reach the Observatory. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Observatory- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What a messed up room this is. It's very small and there are no ghosts, but it's very important that you visit this place. Search the room for treasure (the drawers and the chandelier are the most likely places) and then head over to the telescope and press A. Luigi will look through and you'll see an amazing view of the stars. Luigi will zoom in on the moon, and you'll exit the telescope view. Then, the right wall will disappear (don't ask) and you'll be able to go out into what looks like space. Strange because you're only on the second floor of the mansion and the outside hardly looks like this but I'm not supposed to mention that. Capture one of the 100000000 shooting stars falling with your vacuum and aim it at the moon. It's hard to get accurate aim, so this may take you a couple of tries to do before you actually hit the moon with the star. The moon will then explode... (>_<) and a path of light will appear. Follow it to the end, where the last of the five lost items, MARIO'S STAR, will be waiting for you. Now that you have all five items, you can return to Madame Clairvoya to get them examined. You should know where that room is by now. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Fortune-Teller's Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +--------------------------------+ |BOO: Booigi | |"Hi, I'm Luigi! I mean, Booigi!"| |HP: 40 | +--------------------------------+ You can finally light this room and capture Madame Clairvoya, but not after going through a painfully long and un-necessary process of getting Mario's five items examined. Shine your light on the crystal ball until Clairvoya appears, then talk to her. One by one, she'll reveal clues to Mario's whereabouts. The first one will say that he's alive, the second one will say that he's trapped in a painting in an altar, the third one will mention King Boo, the fourth one will say that the Boos grow powerful in numbers but fear your Poltergust, and the final one will mention something about Bowser. Nice way to finish the explanation off, even though Bowser has nothing to do with this game whatsoever. Oh well. Anyway, Clairvoya will allow you to capture her... well, she SAYS that and waits for you to start vacuuming, but once you do she tries desperately to get away and throws down poisonous mushrooms at you and stuff. Little odd, don't you think? Anyway, the lights will come on once she's gone and a chest containing a KEY (SAFARI ROOM) will appear. This is the last leg of Area Three, and unfortunately you're far away from the Safari Room. Go up the second floor, picking up an Ice Element on the way since you'll need it soon, then go down the hallway and up to the third floor. Go through the southern room (the northern door is a trap) to enter the Safari Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Safari Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There's a Golden Mouse in here. We haven't seen one of those things for a while but we need to grab it because, after all, every little bit of money helps toward an A ranking. Go to the right part of the room and look through your GBH near the big chair to spot the cheese. By the way, this reminds me of a time way back when I was in the seventh grade. For some weird reason, in my math class, we were doing something that had to do with mice (no relation to math). Our teacher said "to catch a mouse, you need the cheese" and then my good 'ol friend Patrick (not my friend, BTW) shouted out, "But we can't do that, because mice prefer chocolate over cheese!" Anyway, the mouse will escape so vacuum it up for your money. Now shake the trophies on the wall to make the ghosts appear. There are Blue Blazes here, and they can be defeated only by ice. Spray them with ice and then vacuum up their remaining 25 hit points. There are three Blue Blaze ghosts and two of the old Garbage Can Ghosts. Once all of them are gone, the room will light up. Shake the table in the right corner (lower) for a big heart that restores fifty hit points and grab the KEY (BALCONY). After getting the Boo, head into the East Hall. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -East Hall- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HAVE YOU WATERED THE BONEYARD PLANT A SECOND TIME? If you didn't, do it NOW so you can get the golden diamond after Area Three. Also, make sure you've gotten the Golden Mouse in the Main Hall 2F since you won't be able to after the lights go on. Head down the hallway to the end. If you don't have at least twenty Boos, a Boo will appear and send you back to the Foyer. You need twenty Boos to be able to access the Balcony. If you DO have your twenty Boos, simply head through the locked door. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Balcony- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is who the boss battle with Boolossus takes place. Your Boo Radar will go completely haywire the moment you enter the area. There are a few plants you can water here, but do that later, in Area Four (since you have to visit here again at the start of Area Four anyway). Head over to the left to find fifteen Boos. After giving Luigi a little scare, they'll form into one big Boo, Boolossus. See the boss section for help on this boss. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Balcony- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A large chest will appear, as usual, and this time it'll contain the Blue Key, which opens the second part of the third floor (which is only four extra rooms, but they're very important). Gadd will contact you and invite you back to his lab for dinner. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Ghost Research Laboratory- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Back at the lab, you'll put your vacuum in the Ghost Portrificationizer, as usual, to turn the gallery ghosts into paintings. The gold to Nana looks weird, but Madame Clairvoya's gold looks pretty nice, as well as Biff Atlas's gold (he looks like a comic book superhero). The gold for Boolossus looks really cool (I've only gotten it once though 'cause I suck) and the silver and bronze for him look kinda lame, so I hope you didn't get those. And your treasure count should be at 50,000,000 G+ (mine was at 54,700,000 G when I wrote this). In Area Four, the longest area, that money count should more than double if you follow the rest of the guide. Basically, if you're at the 50,000,000 G mark now, you're almost guaranteed an A rank as long as you get the two gold diamonds. Anyway, you can look in the gallery if you want or head back to the mansion to begin the final leg of your journey, Area Four. +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Area Four Area4 | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Boneyard- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Right at the start, head to the Boneyard (you should know where it is) so you can water your precious flower for a third time. The plant should be a giant bud. When you water it, it'll grow, open up, and produce a gold bar, a bunch of coins and cash, and a GOLD DIAMOND worth 20,000,000 G, which should roughly equal the amount that you got in Area Three. So in the first two minutes of Area Four you've already matched your money count with the previous areas. I love those gold diamonds, they're so wonderful. Anyway, it's time to use our Blue Key so return to the Balcony. Make sure to stick with your Water Element so you can get the treasure from all the water. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Balcony- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Balcony has a lot of plants that contain lots and lots of diamonds. There are two green diamonds, one red diamond, and a few gold bars. After you get all of that, head over to the west side and go toward the door. As you approach, the force field will go out. But then... shoot. After the shield goes down, a cinema scene will play with lightning. Lightning will strike the top of the mansion and take out every single light in the place. Well now... crap. You'll get a call from Gadd who will tell you to be careful for ghosts, who will appear non-stop from now on in each room. Ghosts will instantly appear at the Balcony, but ignore them and head through the door to get to the upper level of the West Wing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -West Wing 3F- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the West Wing, there's only one unlocked door. Go down and to the left to enter the Telephone Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Telephone Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The phone will be ringing the moment you enter the room. Head over to the middle phone and step in front of it. Luigi will ask who is speaking, then give his name. Luckily, Toad will be on the other line. He'll save your game for you and then hang up. After that call, Toad will vanish from the mansion and you will be unable to save. Coupled with the fact that no Boos will appear, you won't able to save your game until the power goes on, so you need to restore power as quickly as possible. The next phone will start ringing and it will be Gadd, who will tell you that you need to get the Breaker Key from Uncle Grimmly to restore power. He doesn't know where he is, but he does know that Grimmly prefers rooms with mirrors, which really wires down the search. After he hangs up, ghosts will start appearing. Leave the room and return to the West Wing. We have a small adventure ahead of us, but we have the opportunity to capture some Speedy Spirits, and who wants to turn down an opportunity like that? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Nursery- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Remember this room, where we fought Chauncey? A Speedy Spirit rests here now. Wipe out all the ghosts (two Golden, one Purple Puncher, and one Blue Twirler) and then head over to the crib. Shake it and the Spirit will pop out. Collect it for the cash. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Hidden Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In case you forgot how to get into the Hidden Room, enter the Butler's Room and wipe out all the ghosts (make sure to bring fire though because you are going to encounter some Flash ghosts). Then look through your GBH at the right wall. You should spot a mouse hole. Examine it to start a vortex. Enter and you'll be sucked into the Hidden Room. After wiping out all the ghosts here, open the far right chest and a Speedy Spirit will pop out. Capture it, grab the cash, and head to the Conservatory. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Conservatory- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In this music-filled room, wipe out the Golden Ghosts and Purple Puncher, then head over to the piano stool. Shake it and the Speedy Spirit will pop out. Capture it for the cash and you're ready to restore power. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Closet- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Closet was the fourth room you visited. If you forgot where it is, just head up the stairs in the Foyer, go into the Parlor, and head through the series of doors to reach the Closet. This is a room with a mirror and, in case you forgot, Uncle Grimmly likes rooms with mirrors. There are no spare ghosts here, just Grimmly. Turn around and wait. When Grimmly raises his hands, he is about to scare you. Turn around and stun him with your light, then vacuum him up. He is one of the easiest ghosts to capture. A chest will appear containing a KEY (BREAKER ROOM) to the Breaker Room. We've been there before, briefly, to capture a Speedy Spirit. Head downstairs to the basement and enter the northern door (the basement stairs are located on the lower right side of the Main Hall). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Breaker Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-----------------------------+ |BOO: Boo B. Hatch | |"I'm Boo B. Hatch! I'm nuts!"| |HP: 200 | +-----------------------------+ The moment you enter this room, rush over to the breaker and flip the switch and... presto! All the lights in the mansion will turn on, except for the ones that are in rooms you haven't been to yet. A chest will also appear containing a KEY (CELLAR). The Boo is a little tough to capture since it has 200 HP and you haven't explored any other basement area yet but don't worry; once other basement rooms are lit up, you'll get him. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Cellar- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +--------------------------+ |BOO: Booripedes | |"It is I, fair Booripedes"| |HP: 100 | +--------------------------+ There's a Speedy Spirit in here, which is always a good thing. To your left is a chest. Shake it and the Spirit will appear. Shine your light up and capture it. Since there's a wall next to you, all the treasure should stay in one place, making it easy to pick up. Now you'll want to go around the room and slowly vacuum up all the dust piles, since they really limit your movement. Once all nine dust piles are gone, shake the two barrels in here to reveal Purple Punchers. Wipe them both out and the lights will come on. Grab the KEY (CLOCKWORK ROOM) and shake the shelves in the center for a gold bar. Now you have to head all the way back up to the third floor, and into the Telephone Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Telephone Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +------------------------------+ |BOO: Boomerang | |"Boomerang coming back at ya!"| |HP: 300 | +------------------------------+ You can skip this room if you want to, but that would mean missing out on a Boo and a lot of cash. There are three chests in this room. Two of them hold Mr. Bones ghosts. Vacuum the two up and the lights will come on. Check the room for treasure, as usual, then open the chest and a bunch of treasure will pop out. After collecting that, search the room for Boomerang. This guy has 300 HP, and this is the only third floor room you've lit up, so it'll be pretty hard to capture him. Wait until you have lit up the other rooms, then go back and capture this guy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Clockwork Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +---------------------------------+ |BOO: Boocaster | |"Time for the six o' clock Boos!"| |HP: 300 | +---------------------------------+ This room is pretty damn huge, and you can get a gallery ghost here, though it's one of the harder ghosts to get in the game. There's no extra ghosts other than the Toy Platoon. You'll see three clockwork soldiers standing still here. You have to go to each of the upper corners of the room and turn on the clocks, then turn on the one that's on the small table. All three will wake up and start trying to attack you with their sticks. You have to capture each one individually and the third one that you try to vacuum will be the one that determines whether you get a bronze, silver, or gold frame. So try to focus on one at a time and DEFINITELY don't start vacuuming up the third ghost if one of the other two are still around, because they can hit you and break the connection. To vacuum up the ghosts, aim your nozzle at them until their corks come off, and you'll automatically start vacuuming. When all three are gone, the lights will turn on and a door will open. After grabbing the Boo and searching the area for treasure, step through the little door in the northern part of the room to be sent to the Roof. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Roof- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Welcome to the Roof. This place is freaking huge, and there's a bunch of ghosts here, but no Boo. It is also the start of a very, very, very fun sidequest with a ****load of rewards. Even if you don't want to take the sidequest, you still have to enter this room so you can get the key to the Armory. First, you'll find a lot of Shy Guys dancing around and fire. You know what to do with these guys, so suck off their masks and start vacuuming. Once all the Shy Guys are gone, some Flash ghosts will show up so using a Fire Element (there's one in the fire if you don't have one) burn them and then suck them up. Once they're gone, a chest will appear on the upper left tower. If you're short on hearts, you can find some in the pillars (you must shake them, not vacuum). Go up the ladder to the left tower and grab the KEY (ARMORY). We're about to go on a sidequest involving three rooms, a ****load of treasure (I mean a SHITLOAD... UNCENSORED), and an extra gallery ghost. If you don't want all that because you're on some kind of drug, them skip the next few rooms until you reach the Armory room. Otherwise, climb up the ladder to the right tower and drop through the chimney. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Sealed Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Remember you kept passing up a boarded up room on the second floor? This is that room and it has about twice as much treasure as the Hidden Room did. Of course, what treasure room isn't complete without a Speedy Spirit? There are nine chests in the room. From where you are, go down and to the right. The chest to the right of the long table holds the Speedy Spirit. After you capture it, search the corner chests for money and then the trophies for gold bars. Now open the far left chest, and then the one closest to the fireplace. The remaining one holds eight or nine ghosts of different kinds. After you vacuum up all of the ghosts, a chest will appear containing a KEY (SITTING ROOM). It seems like there's no way to get out of here, but there is. Go to the upper-right corner and vacuum the towel off the wall to reveal a mirror. Using your GBH, warp to the Foyer. From there, make your way back to the second floor and enter the only remaining locked door. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Sitting Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +----------------------------+ |BOO: Boolivia | |"I am Boolivia! I hate you!"| |HP: 100 | +----------------------------+ This room is completely dark, but there seems to be no ghosts. Grab a Fire Element from the candle on the table and light the two candles on either sides of the picture. Suddenly, a BUNCH of Golden Ghosts will attack you. My advice is to just burn all of them with flame because it takes away five HP each time. Two blasts of flame to each of them will simply make them vanish for good. Once all the Golden Ghosts are gone, a few Temper Terrors will appear. Grab a Water Element from the corner and spray these guys to make them vulnerable. Once they're gone, the room will light up. Capture the Boo and water the plant in the corner, then head into the Guest Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Guest Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-------------------------+ |BOO: Boonita | |"I'm the lovely Boonita!"| |HP: 100 | +-------------------------+ The moment you enter, Luigi will realize something's up. Oh, it's nothing except for the fact that the entire room is upside down. Weird. Anyway, you should spot a girl sleeping on the bed that's on the ceiling. Without opening her eyes, she'll threaten you. A little freaky. Head over to the girl, whose name is Sue Pea, and start spraying water at her. After three hits, she'll wake up. Stun her and start sucking her in. She'd be a real easy ghost to catch except for the fact that her toy snowmen are flying everywhere. Try to avoid the snowmen as you capture Sue Pea. When she's gone, a chest will appear... on the ceiling >_< Head out of the room and it'll start to shake. When the shaking stops, head back into the Guest Room to find that it's right-side up. After grabbing Boonita, open the chest for a crystal diamond, some gold bars, and a lot of treasure. Water the plant in the corner and head out of here. So that's it, that was the side quest. Now you need to go to the third floor and enter the Armory to continue your main quest. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Courtyard- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-------------------------------+ |BOO: UnderBoo | |"UnderBoo's makin' a comeback!"| |HP: 150 | +-------------------------------+ The Armory has six ghosts that hide in suits of armor and in the chests. If you check the suits of armor, they'll fall on you if they're holding a spiked ball thingy. Check from behind or the side. Ghosts should pop out. Vacuum up the ghosts as you see them and watch out for the falling spikes. Some of the suits of armor can be hard to spot so search in corners and things. Once they're all gone, search the remaining chests for treasure and then grab UnderBoo, as well as the KEY (PIPE ROOM) then head into the Ceramics Studio. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Ceramics Studio- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-------------------------+ |BOO: TamBoorine | |"Who shaking Tamboorine?"| |HP: 200 | +-------------------------+ This room is optional, but there's a lot of treasure and a gallery ghost to be found, as well as the usual Boo. Here, there are nine jars you can interact with, not including a tenth icy jar that contains an Ice Element (surprise, surprise). You need this Ice Element to capture Jarvis (the gallery ghost). Shake the pots a little and eventually Jarvis will pop out of one of them. He'll offer to play a game with you. Say yes and Jarvis will disappear into one of the pots. When he pops out, quickly run over to him and give him an icy blast. He'll retreat and pop out into another jar. Do the same thing. Do this seven times (he stays in one place for a shorter and shorter period of time as you go along) and he'll be ready for capture. The problem here is that there are pots that are flying around. You might want to vacuum up those pots first so they don't interfere with your capture. Jarvis is a pretty tough gallery ghost to get, so don't worry if you don't get a gold frame the first time. Once he's gone, a chest with a lot of treasure will appear. After grabbing the treasure, head down to the basement and go into the Pipe Room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Pipe Room- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +---------------------------------+ |BOO: Booffant | |"I'm booffant: nice hair, green."| |HP: 300 | +---------------------------------+ The Pipe Room is a small room with a small purpose, though I like it. First, you need to capture the three Grabbers (two red, one white). Stay in the corner and try to capture all three at once, though it's not really necessary to do so (it's just cool if you can). Once the three are gone, the lights will come on... but where's the reward? Ignore your Boo Radar for now and grab an Ice Element from the barrel if you don't have one yet. Careful near that sewage water; it's poisonous, so turn your ice onto it until the river freezes. Walk across and turn the valve to shut the water off. You can now walk across the board and grab the KEY (COLD STORAGE). Now grab the Boo (remember, they don't like ice and this is a place with an easy Ice Element) and then head into the Cold Storage. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Cold Storage- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +------------------------+ |BOO: Boolderdash | |"Catch me? Boolderdash!"| |HP: 150 | +------------------------+ You're very near your goal. The Cold Storage holds the twentieth gallery ghost, Sir Winston, and also contains the key to the final "real" room of the mansion (the quotes mean the final room where anything actually happens) before you go off to fight the final boss. Careful in this room; it's incredibly slippery but someone has decided to make a fire here. Why the ice hasn't melted yet, I have no idea but grab the fire element and head over to the two unlit fires. Light them both to reveal a giant block of ice. Sir Winston is frozen here, and we're going to be a very nice person and thaw him out. What a good person Luigi is, aside from the fact that he brutally "re-killed" a baby. Wait... apparently, Sir Winston really wants to kill you for saving his life, so he sends waves of icicles at you. Avoid them and spray fire at the ice block to melt it completely, then Sir Winston will be ready for capture. This is a very hard ghost to get a gold on because there are icicles falling everywhere, the whole floor is slippery, and Sir Winston is very, very fast. You should be able to easily get a silver but aside from that, I don't know. I just have to wish you luck on this one. Once Sir Winston is gone, the icicles will stop falling. Capture your forty-ninth (I hope it's your forty-ninth) Boo and grab the KEY (ARTIST'S STUDIO) that leads you to the final and toughest gallery ghost. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Artist's Studio- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +-----------------------+ |BOO: Bootique | |"Bootique, c'est chic!"| |HP: 300 | +-----------------------+ This is the studio of Vincent Van Gore, the mastermind behind every single friggin' ghost that you've seen (aside from the Boos... yes, the gallery ghosts are his work as well). He's a little pissed that you've destroyed all of his artwork (hey, I would be too) so he's set up a little challenge for you. Twenty-one ghosts, all at the same time. No, just kidding, not all at the same time (that'd be so much fun though). He spits out seven different types of ghosts, in threes. First, it'll be three Golden Ghosts. Then three Purple Punchers, three Blue Twirlers, three Grabbing Ghosts, three Shy Guys, three Garbage Can Ghosts, and finally three Purple Bombers (what a sorry way to finish the battle). Once all twenty-one are gone, he'll be ready for capture. Even though there's no distractions going on around you, Vincent Van Gore is one tough gallery ghost. He'll twist and turn and try to rush away as fast as possible, which is pretty damn fast. Hopefully, you're experience with the vacuum should allow you to use the C-stick and the control stick in a way where Vincent Van Gore shouldn't be able to escape from. Once he's gone, the final KEY (SECRET ALTAR) to the final, final area in the game will appear. Also, this is where the fiftieth Boo is. After you have all fifty Boos, you'll get a GOLD DIAMOND worth 20,000,000 G. Now THAT is a nice reward. If you're missing some Boos, make sure to check back with other areas to see if you left some behind. The ones in the basement and the ones in the West Wing 3F are the hardest to catch. At one point in the West Wing 3F, I was chasing three separate Boos at a time through the Armory, Telephone Room, Clockwork Room, and Ceramics Studio. It was a mess, I tell you. Heal up to the max, save your game at the Foyer, then head down to the Basement. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Basement- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Go to the very back of the hall. If you have less than forty Boos (which is pretty sad, seeing as how you ALWAYS have at least thirty-five before entering Area Four), King Boo will appear and send you back to the Foyer. You SHOULD have all fifty though, so there should be nothing to worry about. Head down the final, twisted hallway and open the door to reach the Secret Altar. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Secret Altar- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you stupidly didn't heal yourself and save, then there's a mirror to the left of you when you enter. Also, we can get some last minute cash! The torch on the right has a bunch of coins and bills, and the torch behind that has a gold bar. The chandelier closest to you holds a blue jewel. Once you have that, head forward and a cinema scene with King Boo will occur. After talking a bit, he'll turn around and then disappear inside a painting of Bowser. Bowser's mouth will open and Luigi will be sucked into the painting as well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Roof- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You're on top of the roof, except the whole background is fiery (I'm glad they didn't have a stupid battle with rain and lightning like every single other game has). Also, there's no escape down the chimney this time. It seems like you're along, but then suddenly... Bowser will drop down from behind you. But IS it Bowser? Hey, remember when we captured Madame Clairvoya? I said Bowser had nothing to do with this game and I wasn't lying... Oh yeah, the boss section will have all you need for this boss, as usual. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Ghost Research Laboratory- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is where Luigi will put the portrait of Mario into the Portificationizer as it works in reverse to get Mario back to normal. That's the ending. Crappy, huh? Anyway, your total treasure count should be over 115,000,000G if you followed this guide all the way, giving you the "A" ranking. Also, you'll unlock the Hidden Mansion (next chapter). So congratulations on clearing Luigi's Mansion! Short game, huh? Pity, pity... ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% The Hidden Mansion %%%%%| HIDDEN | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== The Hidden Mansion isn't actually a different mansion, it's just the same thing as the Mansion with some tweaks. In the PAL version of the game, I believe there's a lot more stuff but for the stupid, crappy American version, we just get two additional things. The first thing is that the vacuum has 1.5 times the suction power. That doesn't seem like much, but it can be very, very useful for gallery ghost battles in which you failed to get a gold frame on in the first frame. The second thing is that you take twice as much damage. Yeah, it sucks, but it provides for a bigger challenge. Other, smaller things are: -the portraits of the gallery ghosts are carried over to the Hidden Mansion -if you get a bronze portrait of a ghost in the Hidden Mansion, but got a silver or gold in the regular Mansion, then you get to keep the higher frame -likewise, if you get a higher frame in the Hidden Mansion, then that replaces the old frame That's basically it. Nothing worth adding into a separate chapter, but I didn't know where else to put this. ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% Bosses %%%%%| WALKTHR | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== After coming out of a four month break, I've decided that it would be better if I put the bosses in a separate section. I doubt any of you are going to use this guide all the way through, and many of you just need help on a boss. So... without further ado... here's the bosses. +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Chauncey (Dif. 3/10) Chaunc. | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ Chauncey is the third gallery ghost. Boss gallery ghosts are a little different. What portrait frame you get depends on how much HP you lose. I'm not totally sure of the exact numbers but I think if you lose ten or less you'll get a gold, fifty or less nets you a silver, and fifty-one plus nets you a bronze. Do not take my word for that, I'm not totally sure. Anyway, let me say this right now: you deserve to be beaten down and destroyed by this guy because you attacked him with a giant ball and all he wanted to do was play with you. I should just stop the guide right now and let Chauncey finish you off but since I'm such a nice guy, I'll tell you how to beat him up even more. Chauncey has three attacks and they all repeat in the same blatantly obvious pattern. The first attack involves hurling wooden horses at you. It's only fair that you get trampled by a wooden horse because, after all, you attacked a baby. Stand in the middle of the arena and wait for the horse to approach you. When you hear the sound of it turning, quickly head left or right and you'll dodge it. It is very very very very very simple to avoid this horse. The second attack in Chauncey's bag o' tricks is throwing a bunch of balls (like the one you used to nearly kill... shut up.... him with) into the crib and letting them bounce around. It's only fair that you get knocked out by a giant bouncing ball because, after all, you attacked a baby. There's no actual pattern to avoiding this attack, you just need to watch the shadows of the balls and run away from them. The third attack will be used after you attack Chauncey. Chauncey will bounce around the arena himself, trying to body slam you. It's only fair that you get squashed by Chauncey because, after all, you attacked a baby. Chauncey seems to only know one way around his crib because he'll bounce around the perimeter. Stand in the center and wait and nothing will happen to you. So that's it. Those are Chauncey's attacks. They do practically no damage to you so it should be very simple to get a gold frame on this even on your first try. But wait, I haven't told you how to attack him yet, have I? After all of the balls disappear, you'll find that one is remaining. Since Nintendo is so original, you're going to have to suck up the ball again, aim it at Chauncey, and release. Once again, Chauncey will get hurt. Now's your chance to turn your vacuum on him (you don't have to stun him with your flashlight). Boss ghosts are pretty damn hard to keep a connection with. It's practically inevitable that you'll break the connection at least once during a battle. You have to always be facing exactly where Chauncey is facing and tapping the control stick back as fast as possible. If you're a beginner, you should be able to get twenty or thirty hit points out of him in one go. Advanced players will be able to get fifty or sixty out at once. Once you break the connection with Chauncey, the attack pattern will start all over again with the horses and balls. However, after you get Chauncey below fifty hit points, he'll throw in a trick to his horse tossing. Sometimes, two horses will come at you from either directions. Stand and wait in the middle (don't try to run left or right) and the horses will simply pass by you. Continue whacking Chauncey and vacuuming him until you have his hit points down to zero. Great job, you've done some pretty bad damage to a baby. Aren't you proud of yourself now? +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Bogmire (Dif. 4/10) Bogmir. | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ At first, I had difficulty with Bogmire. But after a few battles, I can beat him without losing a single hit point. I'm just gonna get right down to business here since there's nothing much to say other than the actual strategy needed to defeat this boss. Bogmire himself doesn't have any attacks. He just stands around and looks pretty (which is pretty hard for him... HAHAHAHAHAHAH WASN'T THAT FUNNY? I'M A FUNNY GUY! LOLOLOLOLOL... sorry). A bunch of other spirits will rise. Usually, I just ignore all the spirits when I attack Bogmire but now I've realized a much easier thing to do: wipe out all but one spirit. Usually, you'll want to wipe out all but the big spirit. With a clear field, suck up the remaining spirit and it'll stick to your vacuum. Aim it at Bogmire (the purple/pinkish ghost that casts the shadow) and release. Hmmm... does that strategy seem familiar? Anyway, this will trap Bogmire in a blob. Now's your chance to use your Poltergust 3000 to try and clean Bogmire up. If you used a big spirit on him, then it should be harder to break the connection. Otherwise, you'll have to be a near perfectionist to wipe out fifty or sixty hit points in one go. If the other spirits were around, then this would be a LOT harder since hitting them would break the connection and damage you. But since we made a clear field, then there's nothing to this guy. Eventually, the connection WILL break, there's no avoiding it. About six or seven lightning strikes will hit the field, spawning new spirits (more spirits, I might add). Again, wipe out all but the biggest one and then use it on Bogmire. Once more, try to vacuum him up. The connection will probably break earlier this time, but if you're lucky you should grab Bogmire on the third or fourth try. If you stay aware of your surroundings and purposely break connection whenever you're about to hit a spirit, then you should have no problem getting the gold-framed Bogmire portrait, which looks really cool. +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Boolossus (Dif. 7/10) Boolos. | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ I hate this boss. It's not hard really, it's just frustrating. I suppose at first it can be fun, but near the end it just gets really tedious and you can get upset at the game pretty fast. Boolossus is basically fifteen Boos combined into one. Obviously, you have to defeat these fifteen individual Boos in order to defeat the boss, but they do a good deal of damage to you, which makes it hard to get a gold frame for this boss (in the Hidden Mansion, your vacuum's suction doesn't really matter so it's twice as hard to get a gold frame in the Hidden Mansion). One awesome thing about this boss is that it gives you an additional fifteen Boos to your collection once its gone but still, I almost prefer capturing them individually. Besides, it would make the game longer since there would be fifteen more rooms. Anyway, Boolossus doesn't have any actual attacks other than bouncing around the arena trying to squash Luigi. At first, Boolossus is huge but as more and more Boos disappear, Boolossus will grow smaller, stronger, and faster. Oh joy. First things first, rush over to one of the two unicorn statues and grab an Ice Element. With that in hand, you're ready to fight Boolossus. Using your vacuum, try to trap Boolossus (which is pretty tough considering how large he is) in your vacuum's suction. Once you've done that, guide your vacuum toward a unicorn horn to pop Boolossus. This will cause fifteen Boos to scatter in all directions. They'll underestimate you here and charge at you mindlessly so you can run around spraying ice everywhere. If ice touches a Boo, it'll freeze and you can vacuum it without a problem. At first, you should be able to get about three to five Boos in, hopefully more. The Boos, however, will soon form into Boolossus again. It should be smaller and easier to capture in your suction this time, so steer it once more toward the horn to pop it. The Boos should be a little more intelligent now, and when they see you spray ice they'll run away. If you stop spraying ice, they'll get close and that's when you can freeze them. You should be able to hopefully get another three to five in, knocking the count down to, at least, two- thirds its original size. As more and more Boos disappear, Boolossus will get smaller and smaller and the Boos will grow more intelligent. Eventually, when there's only two or three left, they'll steer clear of you if you have ice and won't get anywhere near you. If you stop spraying ice, they'll charge. That's when you have to get them, when they're charging. If you mess up, they'll ram into you and you'll lose hearts which is something you CANNOT afford to lose during this battle since you need ninety for a gold frame. You might try hold L all the way to send out ice blasts, which are incredibly inaccurate, but long range. If you get good with shooting those, you'll be able to hit the Boos from a distance. When there's just one Boo left, it'll bounce around wildly and hover high up over Luigi to try and trick him. At this point you either have to have GREAT timing when the Boo comes charging toward you or you need to be able to hit the Boo with your blast of ice. The latter is definitely recommended if you're going for the gold frame. Once the last Boo has been picked up, Boolossus will disappear for good. That should make your Boo count jump to thirty-nine. Only eleven more to go! +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | King Boo (Dif. 9/10) KingBoo | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ NOTE: When I refer to "King Boo" or "Bowser" I'm referring to the same thing. King Boo is in a Bowser costume, which is why I sometimes switch references. You're only fighting one thing here, and that's King Boo. Just wanted to clear that up. I really like this battle. I find it so fun. But I also find it incredibly hard to get a gold frame on because you basically have not get hit ONCE. King Boo's attacks are incredibly powerful so you have to be very, very careful. Anyway, down to the basic battle plan. First, King Boo's attacks... No Bowser is complete without a fire breathing attack, and that's just what King Boo's most preferred attack is. The fire can go a long way, but it stops at the orange line that appears as Bowser spreads his head left and right, extending the fire. You won't want to run too far away, or King Boo will do the stupid leap, but you won't want to get anywhere near the fire. This attack will take away ten HP if you're hit. You can afford to get hit by fire only once and nothing else to net the gold frame. King Boo's second attack is the one that gives you the opportunity to damage him, but I'll get to that later. King Boo will make three mines appear. He'll roll them down the path as if they were bowling balls. If you get hit by one of these mines, it's five hit points off your heart count (this is the only attack that takes away less than ten) and if a mine explodes it's ten hit points off. If you try to get around behind King Boo, but are too close, Bowser will whip his tail and cause twenty damage to Luigi. You can NOT get hit by this if you want the gold frame, since you need at least ninety HP to grab a gold frame. But you should never have to run behind Bowser anyway, so this shouldn't be a problem for you. Bowser's most devastating attack isn't all that difficult to avoid. However, if you're caught, it wipes out your chances for a gold frame and makes it pretty damn tough to get a silver frame as well. King Boo will breath in a huge breath of air. If you're caught in this, try to run the other way, against the force. However, if Luigi is overcome, he'll be sucked into Bowser's mouth, where King Boo will beat him up a little inside. He'll then be spit out. Luigi will be stunned at this point so King Boo will use that opportunity to throw a little fire toward him. This fire can't be avoided. In total, the attack does twenty-five damage (that's fifty on the Hidden Mansion, which is half your HP!). After King Boo throws mines at you, he'll always charge toward Luigi and stop just in front of him to breath some fire. If you're caught during this charge, you'll take twenty damage. It shouldn't be a problem, as long as you back away when Bowser's charging. If you're far away from King Boo, he'll leap high into the air. Quickly run and keep running, but don't stay in the same place. Bowser will eventually land very close to you (HOW do these guys always change direction in midair... it's so freaky). If you're hit, you'll lose twenty hit points. When King Boo is under 200 HP, the Bowser head will go on backwards. King Boo will be unable to see, so Bowser will be wandering around the roof running into pillars. If he tramples Luigi during this, twenty hit points will be taken away. This shouldn't be TOO hard to avoid. Eventually, King Boo will put the Bowser head back on facing the front. The final attack happens when King Boo is out of the Bowser costume and you're damaging him. The Bowser head will be floating around the area, shooting bolts of ice at you. Stay in one place and when ice is spit, step to the left or right and it'll miss you. Depending on how much the ice hits, you'll suffer ten to twenty damage. Now for a strategy on beating him. King Boo will always open up the battle by breathing fire, which isn't unusual for all bosses (to open with their main attack). After this, King Boo will throw the three giant mines toward Luigi. Avoid them and then when they've landed, pick up the one closest to you with your vacuum. King Boo will charge toward you. Aim the vacuum at Bowser and back away as he's charging. Just as Bowser breathes in to start the fire blast, release the R button and the mine will fly into the head, blowing it off. King Boo will fly out, totally vulnerable, with a whopping 500 HP. Don't worry though, you can usually knock off 100 to 150 HP in one go. Since it is so freakishly bright in the area, King Boo's HP will deplete VERY quickly, and he doesn't move around much either. Simply stand under him and vacuum, stepping out of the way when an ice bolt comes toward you. Try not to get stuck in a corner, or it'll be hard to avoid the ice. Eventually King Boo will fly back into the Bowser head. The strategy will repeat itself. Do the same thing until King Boo's HP is at 200. Once the HP hits 200, the Bowser head will go on backwards (like I said before) and King Boo will run around not knowing where he's going. Sometimes, he'll hit pillars. When hearts show up, GRAB THEM. You definitely want the gold frame here, so hearts are wonderful. Sometimes, poisonous mushrooms will appear out of the pillars so avoid those. Eventually, Bowser's head will come back on facing the front. From here, the battle just repeats itself until you have gotten King Boo's 500 HP into your vacuum. Afterwards, you'll get a red jewel (from his crown) and Mario's portrait! ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% Everything Money Related %%%%%| Money | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== What a crappy chapter title. This guide basically tells you the location of the Speedy Spirits, the Golden Mice, the plants that give you money, the how much each piece of money is worth, and the rankings you get at the end of the game. I didn't think splitting each of these things up into a separate chapter was worth it, since they would all be super small, so I just decided to merge them into one big chapter. Anyway, I'll give you the locations of the Speedy Spirits and Golden Mice first, so... onto the locations of the Speedy Spirits and Golden Mice. +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Speedy Spirits Speedy | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ -Speedy Spirit #1- Location: Closet (2F, off the ) Notes: The Speedy Spirit is in the far left wardrobe. I suggest taking out all the ghosts in the area except for the one in the right wardrobe before tackling the Spirit. -Speedy Spirit #2- Location: Study (2F, off the West Wing) Notes: The Speedy Spirit can be found inside the table. I like to get this one during the blackout, mainly because Neville won't interfere with you catching it. -Speedy Spirit #3- Location: Nursery (2F, off the West Wing) Notes: This Speedy Spirit can only be gotten during the blackout. During the blackout, you can find the ghost inside the crib. -Speedy Spirit #4- Location: Storage Room (1F, off the Main Hall) Notes: You can find this Spirit inside the chair on your right. Try to take out all but one ghost before you tackle this guy. -Speedy Spirit #5- Location: Butler's Room (1F, off the Main Hall) Notes: Speedy Spirit number five can be found in one of the stools in the Butler's Room. I suggest getting this before you make Shivers enter the room; it'll be easier since no ghosts will be bothering you. -Speedy Spirit #6- Location: Hidden Room (1F, off the Main Hall) Notes: In this treasure-filled room, you can find a Speedy Spirit inside the right (not the far right) chest during the blackout. If you open it before then, it'll be empty. Try to take out every ghosts before tackling this guy, so you don't suffer any interference. -Speedy Spirit #7- Location: Conservatory (1F, off the Main Hall) Notes: During the blackout, you can find a Speedy Spirit inside the piano bench on the far right. Be ready to point your nozzle up at the Spirit as it appears above you. -Speedy Spirit #8- Location: Dining Room (1F, off the Main Hall) Notes: In the far left cabinet, you can find this Spirit. This is a fairly easy Spirit to get because there is NOTHING that will interfere with you capturing it. -Speedy Spirit #9- Location: Kitchen (1F, off the Main Hall) Notes: The Spirit hides in the left oven. Nothing special here. -Speedy Spirit #10- Location: Rec Room (1F, off the Courtyard) Notes: The Spirit lies in one of the little bags on the right. It's the lower bag, and there's nothing else you need to know. Just make sure to do it before you anger Biff Atlas, otherwise it might be a bit tough to catch. -Speedy Spirit #11- Location: Nana's Room (2F, off the Main Hall) Notes: This Speedy Spirit is a fairly simple one to get. Simply go to the far right side of the room and shake the armchair. The Spirit should pop out. -Speedy Spirit #12- Location: Twin's Room (2F, off the West Wing) Notes: A fun Spirit to get. Before you wake up the twins, climb up to the top bunk and start vacuuming the bed. The Spirit should pop up right above you. If you vacuum it up there, none of the treasure should leave the bed and you should get all of it at once. -Speedy Spirit #13- Location: Cellar (Basement) Notes: Right when you enter the cellar, shake the table on your left and the spirit will pop out. Shine your light up at it since it'll appear above you. -Speedy Spirit #14- Location: Sealed Room (2F, off the Roof) Notes: Inside this treasure-filled room, open the lower right chest to find the Spirit. Make sure to get this after getting any spare ghosts (but NOT the ghosts in the chests). +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Golden Mice Golden | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ There are two types of Golden Mice. First, there are the random ones, which appear in specific rooms and the two Main Halls. Then there are cheese mice, which always appear when you trigger a certain event in five specific rooms. Mice will only appear in dark rooms, but they can escape to a lit room if you're too slow catching them. I'll list the random mice first, then the cheese mice. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Random Mice- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Every so often, when you're walking in one of five areas, a golden mouse will simply appear out of nowhere. You'll hear a sound that triggers this, so you'll always no to hurry and catch the mouse before it gets away. These are where the five mice appear: -Main Hall 1F -Main Hall 2F -Kitchen -Tea Room -Sealed Room The Sealed Room mouse is very tedious to get because you always have to constantly go all the way up to the roof, fall down the chimney, and if it doesn't work you have to warp back to the Foyer, make your way to the roof, and repeat. I just ignore this mouse entirely, unless I happen to get it on my first visit inside the room. And once the room is lit up, you can't get the mouse anyway, so if you want the mouse then you have to get it before you get anything else in the room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Cheese Mice- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Study (behind the desk) -Fortune-Teller's Room (behind Madame Clairvoya's table) -Dining Room (behind the dining table) -Tea Room (behind the left table) -Safari Room (on the far right side) +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Money Plants Plants | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ Once you get the Water Element Medal, you'll be able to water certain plants to get jewels and gold bars, as well as some money. This portion of the chapter will state the location of every plant that gives you a jewel or a gold bar. They're found all over the mansion... remember, every little bit of treasure helps! -Money Plant #1- Location: 2nd Floor Balcony (2F, off the Foyer) Treasure: Blue Jewel Where: The middle plant on the right -Money Plant #2- Location: 2nd Floor Balcony (2F, off the Foyer) Treasure: Gold Bar Where: Not a plant, but the lamp next to do the door -Money Plant #3- Location: Master Bedroom (2F, off the West Wing) Treasure: Green Jewel, Gold Bar Where: In the upper right hand corner, spray the potted plant -Money Plant #4- Location: Boneyard (1F, off the Main Hall) Treasure: Gold Diamond Where: This one's a bit tricky. When you first enter the Boneyard, before you clear Area Two, water the plant in the garden once and it'll grow. After you beat Bogmire, return to the plant and water it again. Once you defeat Boolossus, water the plant a third time and it'll open and produce tons of cash and coins, along with the 20,000,000G diamond! -Money Plant #5- Location: Courtyard (1F, off the Main Hall) Treasure: Gold Bar Where: The lower left plant near the fountain -Money Plant #6- Location: Courtyard (1F, off the Main Hall) Treasure: Green Jewel Where: The upper right plant near the fountain -Money Plant #7- Location: Balcony (3F) Treasure: Green Jewel Where: The lower right plant, in the corner -Money Plant #8- Location: Balcony (3F) Treasure: Gold Bar Where: The far right, middle plant -Money Plant #9- Location: Balcony (3F) Treasure: Red Jewel Where: The upper right plant, in the corner -Money Plant #10- Location: Balcony (3F) Treasure: Green Jewel Where: On the right side of the west bench, up at the top -Money Plant #11- Location: Balcony (3F) Treasure: Gold Bar Where: The lower left plant, in the corner -Money Plant #12- Location: Sitting Room (2F, off the Main Hall) Treasure: Gold Bar Where: The potted plant in the upper left corner -Money Plant #13- Location: Guest Room Treasure: Blue Jewel Where: The potted plant in the upper right corner -MONEY VALUE- There are twelve different types of treasure, and they are all worth a different amount of money. You need different amounts of money to get the different rankings (which I'll list next). -Gold Coin- Value: 5,000G -Red Diamond- Value: 5,000G -Bill- Value: 20,000G -Small Pearl- Value: 50,000G -Gold Bar- Value: 100,000G -Medium Pearl- Value: 100,000G -Blue Jewel- Value: 500,000G -Green Jewel- Value: 800,000G -Red Jewel- Value: 1,000,000G -Big Pearl- Value: 1,000,000G -Silver Diamond- Value: 2,000,000G -Gold Diamond- Value: 20,000,000G +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | House Rankings Ranking | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ At the end of a game, the total amount of money you earned throughout the areas will total up. Depending on how much you have, Luigi will buy a better house. The rankings go from H (a tent) to A (a huge mansion). -Rank H- A tent: Less than 5,000,000G -Rank G- A one-room house: Less than 20,000,000G -Rank F- A one-room, two-window house: Less than 40,000,000G -Rank E- A three-room house: Less than 50,000,000G -Rank D- A four-room, two-story house: Less than 60,000,000G -Rank C- A seven-room, two-story house: Less than 70,000,000G -Rank B- A twelve-room, two story house: Less than 100,000,000G -Rank A- A nineteen-room, three-story house: Over 100,000,000G There is also an S-Ranking, but currently I don't know how to get it or what the mansion looks like. If anyone does, please let me know! ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% Enemies %%%%%| ENEMY | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== Not counting the gallery ghosts, and the bosses, there are a total of twenty different enemies in the game. They can range from walking skeletons to Shy Guys, and some of them are a lot harder than others. I'll list the name of the ghost, the HP, and how to beat the ghost. -Bat- HP: 0 Notes: The Bat has no HP and doesn't need to be stunned by the light. Simply focus your nozzle on the beast and you'll automatically suck it up. -Blue Blaze- HP: 20 Notes: The Blue Blaze is one of three Elemental Ghosts that require you to use one of the three elements (Fire, Water, or Ice) to defeat it. The Blue Blaze requires an ice element. Spray the ghost with an icy blast and it'll be stunned and lose five hit points. It's at this time where you can vacuum the spirit up. -Blue Mouse- HP: 0 Notes: Like the Bat, the Blue Mouse doesn't need to be stunned. Simply start sucking up the air and the mouse will come with it. -Blue Twirler- HP: 30 Notes: The Blue Twirler is an uncommon ghost. They won't become common until Area Four, where you'll run into a lot of them. The Blue Twirler is sort of an upgraded version of the Gold Ghost and Purple Puncher. While it can ram into Luigi, it can also cause shockwaves. If you're hit by a shockwave while trying to vacuum a ghost up, the connection will be broken. The Blue Twirler can't release shockwaves while it's struggling to break free of the Poltergust 3000 so try to vacuum up all Blue Twirlers in the room before any of the other ghosts. -Bowling Ghost- HP: 0 Notes: In the Basement and the 3F West Wing, Bowling Ghosts will appear. They look like your average Golden Ghost except you'll know they're different once they start rolling bowling balls down the corridors. You simply need to stun them and you'll be able to suck them up instantly. -Ceiling Surprise- HP: 0 Notes: The Ceiling Surprise is only found in the two Main Halls, the Basement, and the 3F West Wing. The Ceiling Surprise will drop down from behind or in front of you, and you'll lose HP if you run into it. Stun it with your light and activate your vacuum, and the ghost will automatically be sucked in. -Flash- HP: 10 Notes: The Flash is one of the three Elemental Ghosts that require you to use one of the three elements (Fire, Water, or Ice) to defeat it. The Flash requires a fire element. Spray the ghost with a fiery blast and it'll be stunned and lose five hit points. It's at this time where you can vacuum the ghost up. -Flying Fish- HP: 0 Notes: Once again, this is an enemy that doesn't require to be stunned by the light. The Flying Fish will float around and will try to attack you, but just aiming your nozzle at it will defeat it. -Garbage Can Ghost- HP: 40 Notes: The third type of ghost you meet is the ghost with the most HP, aside from the gallery ghosts and the bosses. The Garbage Can Ghosts, luckily, are rare in the game but you'll run into at least fifteen of them throughout the game. The Garbage Can Ghosts like to run around and throw banana peels onto the floor. If Luigi steps on these, he'll slip, lose coins, and take damage. Also, if you were to be vacuuming a ghost up, you'll break the connection if you slip on a banana peel. While you're vacuuming the ghost up, it'll throw the peels all over the place so make sure to avoid those while you're trying to capture the ghost. -Gold Ghost- HP: 10 Notes: This is the most common ghost you'll find in the game. They are the only types of ghosts that appear at first, and there is nothing special about them. Gold Ghosts simply try to punch you, but they have to "charge" their punch before they actually release it, which should give you plenty of time to capture the ghost. -Gold Mouse- HP: 0 Notes: There are only ten Golden Mice in the game. Five of them are found in specific rooms and random times and the other five are found inside cheese (see the chapter Speedy Spirits, Golden Mice, and Everything Money Related). They don't need to be stunned, but you might have to move toward them as you suck them up because they're pretty fast. Once you suck them up, they'll release a bunch of cash. -Grabbing Ghost- HP: 20 Notes: The Grabbing Ghosts can come in different colors. The first types you'll meet are white, but you can also run into red and blue. There are no differences between the ghosts except the color. Grabbing Ghosts like to sneak up on Luigi from behind and grab him. While they're strangling Luigi, his health will deplete rapidly. To get a ghost off, push the control stick to the left and right rapidly. In the Hidden Mansion, Luigi's HP will deplete twice as fast so it's essential that you get the ghost off you. -Mr. Bones- HP: 30 Notes: If I can remember correctly, there are only six Mr. Bones in the game, four of them appearing within five minutes of each other. Mr. Bones is simply a skeleton that will try to harass you by throwing bones at you. Simply stun it while avoiding the bones and vacuum him up. -Purple Bomber- HP: 0 Notes: Like the Ceiling Surprise, the Purple Bomber can only be found in areas that lead to single rooms. The Purple Bomber will drop down long corridors and drop bombs. Once again, stun them with your light and turn your vacuum on them to defeat the ghost. -Purple Puncher- HP: 20 Notes: This is the second type of ghost you'll meet, the Purple Puncher. Basically, these purple ghosts are just like the Gold Ghosts except that they're larger and have twenty HP. The Purple Punchers also deal ten damage to Luigi, instead of the Gold Ghost's five HP. -Shy Guy- HP: 20 Notes: It's a Mario game, so at least ONE of the classic enemies has to have made it in here, right? It just so happens that the Shy Guy is the only one (SHUT UP THE BOOS DON'T COUNT!) to have made it. You can't stun or lock on to the Shy Guy at first. When you see one, try to vacuum its mask off. It'll cover its face for a few seconds. You can now stun it and vacuum it up. Watch out for the spear that it carries. If you get too close, the Shy Guys will stab you with it. -Spark- HP: 0 Notes: This is the only enemy in the game that you can't actually suck up. If you get too close to the Spark, it'll start to flash and eventually explode. If you try to suck it up, nothing will happen except that they will explode. Try to avoid them as best you can throughout the game. -Speedy Spirit- HP: 10 Notes: Fourteen of these special ghosts reside in Luigi's mansion. When you find them, quickly stun them and suck them up. They'll release tons of cash. -Temper Terror- HP: 30 Notes: The Temper Terror is one of three Elemental Ghosts that require you to use one of the three elements (Fire, Water, or Ice) to defeat it. The Temper Terror requires a water element. Spray the ghost with an watery blast and it'll be stunned and lose five hit points. It's at this time where you can vacuum the spirit up. -Waiter- HP: 10 Notes: There are only two Waiters in the entire game and once they're gone, they're gone. Without a doubt, the Waiter is easily the most pathetic ghost that involves using a flashlight. When you're trying to capture Mr. Luggs, he'll call on the Waiters to bring him more food. To make your capture easier, simply stun the Waiters to make them vulnerable, then suck 'em up. They don't try to attack you at all, and barely struggle, so it should be easy. ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% Gallery Ghosts %%%%%| GALLERY | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== If you're stuck on a specific gallery ghost, I've put together this little guide to help you get through. The descriptions have barely any depth, since that's in the guide and I can't really say more than what I've said there. Here, I'll simply give you the bare bone strategy of how to defeat the gallery ghost. It should be enough for regular gallery ghosts, but you might want to head to the bosses section if you're stuck on a boss. Also, I'll be putting the in game description of the gallery ghost in here, for anyone that's interested. ~~~~~~~ Neville ~~~~~~~ Bio: 42 years The Bookish Father Neville -Neville spends his afterlife reading all the books he missed while living. Found: Study (2F, off the West Wing) How to beat: You first portrait ghost is definitely the easiest one. Turn your back to Neville and when he yawns, turn around and stun him with your light to make him vulnerable. ~~~~~ Lydia ~~~~~ Bio: 34 years The Mirror-Gazing Mother Lydia -She's stashed her secret savings away to prepare for her long afterlife.

It's not that big of a thing, namely where each one is found and what area they're in. But first, I'll list a few tips to capturing Boos: -Remember, if a Boo escapes a room, you can follow it into another room. If a Boo escapes into a dark room, it'll be much more difficult to suck up the HP. -A Boo will never escape into a different floor. It will always remain on the floor it was originally on. -The Boo in the Astral Hall is a tricky bastard. Do not let it escape through the door on your left or it'll try to escape into the wall, making it impossible to capture until you leave the mansion and re-enter. -The vacuum in the Hidden Mansion won't help you capture Boos any faster. Not a tip, but just a heads up. So, small hints but they will help you if you remember them. +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ | Area One Area1B | +====--------------------------------------------------------------------====+ Name: BamBoo 30 HP Location: Parlor Quote: "I am BamBoo, if you please."

However, people seem to not respect the rules. I understand that there were many that did, and I'm sorry this had to happen, but I am moving to a closed list. There have been many pointless IMs, including people who bash, advertising people (0_0), spammers, and people who "wnt to maek convursashon bye tlking liek thiz" which gets incredibly annoying. So it's only e-mail now, sorry. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ E-mail contact rules ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My e-mail address is cskull@frogdesign.com. There are a few things that you can e-mail me about, and few things that you can't. First the things that are okay. Information on the game. No this does NOT mean full world guides, because if it isn't there I haven't gotten to them yet but I will. It means additional TIPS on beating a world or correcting information that I messed up. Secrets are _TOTALLY_ accepted. Praise mail. I used to be against this, but now I realize how rare praise really is. Just don't send me things like, "Yer faq is kewl, lol!!!" Suggestions for the FAQ. Something like, "Why don't you add such and such in your FAQ. NOT "Why don't you totally re-do your FAQ because it sucks!" That is just plain rude and annoying. If you don't like my FAQ, tell me things to make it better! The things that you CAN'T e-mail me about are... Spam. This is the NUMBER 0NE thing that you must not send. I get at least twenty spam e-mails a day and I don't need yours it doesn't help. Please don't send any. Asking permission to use this FAQ. No, you can't, so don't bother. Only four sites, which I have listed at the top of the guide, can use this FAQ. Hate mail. No I don't appreciate it if you send me an e-mail saying, "Your FAQ is the biggest piece of **** ever created! It sucks!" That just fills up my inbox and it really annoys me. Spelling/Grammar mistakes. I used to get about ten e-mails a day saying, "You spelled these two words wrong." or something like, "You used inappropriate grammar in this chapter." Please people! I can find those on my own! And that wraps up the contact. Once again my e-mail is: cskull@frogdesign.com ===================--------------------====================------------------- | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | |%%%%% Credits/Closing %%%%%| CRCL | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | -------------------====================--------------------=================== CJayC: His awesome game site, and for posting this guide on it.
