The Beetle Whisperer (Scarab Nabber in the British English version) is one of the five types of boss ghosts encountered in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon's ScareScraper. One of them may be randomly found on every floor that is a multiple of five, barring the top floor.
Appearance[edit]
The Beetle Whisperer is a large, yellow Slammer. There are several different variations of Beetle Whisperers, but they all attack the same.
Abilities[edit]
The Beetle Whisperer's main attack is like that of a normal Slammer. If one of the Luigis get too close to the Beetle Whisperer, he creates a huge shockwave with his hands. When attempting to vacuum the Beetle Whisperer, he has a paranormal shield of any color protecting him, which must be removed with the Power Surge of the same color or higher. While the Beetle Whisperer is being sucked up, he releases several beetles to attack the Luigis. If a player is hit by one of these beetles when they are attempting to vacuum the boss, they are stopped and take damage. Different variations of Greenies (either regular or Strong Greenies) often aid the Beetle Whisperer in battle as well.
