'''Bogmire''' is a [[portrait ghost]] in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|its remake]]. He is a shadowy purple ghost with a outstretched arms, a large mouth, and yellow eyes. Bogmire is the manifestation of the mansion's fear and despair; he does not speak (making him the only area boss without any dialogue) and does not have a heart for the [[Game Boy Horror]] to examine. His name is inexplicably a combination of the names of two types of swampland: "bog" and "mire." Bogmire's portrait number in the [[Gallery (Luigi's Mansion)|Gallery]] is 19.<ref>{{cite|date=January 25, 2023|author=RetroArchive|url=youtu.be/vsVY_MCWnPc?feature=shared&t=439|title=''Luigi's Mansion'' - Full Gallery Portraits Showcase (Bronze, Silver & Gold)|publisher=YouTube|timestamp=07:19}}</ref>
'''Bogmire, the Cemetery Shadow''' (Japanese: シャドーマ ''Shadōma''), is a purple portrait ghost of unknown age from the game ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. His name is derived from "bog" and "quagmire" (or just "mire"), two types of swamps. He resides in the [[Graveyard]] of [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|Luigi's Mansion]] during the events of the game and is the boss of the second area. Bogmire is the manifestation of the mansion's fear and despair, although he does not know who to fear or what to despair. Bogmire can summon [[Black Bogmire]]s. He can also teleport around an area with a flash of lightning.


Bogmire is the boss of Area Two. He is encountered in the [[Graveyard]] where Luigi can fight him after catching every [[Mr. Bones]], resulting in the large headstone glowing. As Luigi approaches the headstone, lightning strikes as Bogmire emerges from the ground. After jumping back in horror, Luigi is sent to an unknown arena, where a large [[Black Bogmire]] comes out and approaches him, while several others also appear in the field. Bogmire teleports around the arena, with his shadow and lightning strikes relaying his presence. Bogmire does not attack, though the Black Bogmires do. Some time after the Black Bogmires spawn, Bogmire and his shadow vanish, and Bogmire spawns elsewhere. Using his [[Poltergust 3000]], Luigi can change a Black Bogmire into a ball shape and then launch it at Bogmire. Upon being hit, Bogmire becomes vulnerable to the Poltergust 3000.<ref>{{cite|author=Sinfield, George|date=2001|quote=When the shadow hits its target, it will bog down Bogmire and prime him for a Poltergust 3000 attack.|title=''Luigi's Mansion'' Player's Guide|page=46|publisher=Nintendo of America|isbn=1-930206-14-3}}</ref> Bogmire usually breaks free of the grasp after a few seconds. Once Bogmire is caught, Luigi returns to the Graveyard, where a large [[Treasure chest|chest]] with the [[key]] to the [[Courtyard (Luigi's Mansion)|Courtyard]] appears.
[[Luigi]] encounters Bogmire during his quest to save his brother, [[Mario]], from [[King Boo]]. Three (five in the [[Hidden Mansion]]) [[Skeleton Ghost]]s hide in the tombstones in the area prior to the boss fight. After Luigi dispatches them with the [[Poltergust 3000]], the largest headstone begins to glow. As Luigi approaches the stone, Bogmire reveals himself and transports Luigi to an arena.

===Artwork===
After the transport, the battle begins. To attack Luigi, Bogmire creates Black Bogmires, ranging from small to large sizes. These duplicates attack Luigi as Bogmire warps around the arena. To capture Bogmire, Luigi has to suck in the ghosts, which transforms them into a shadowy ball. Luigi must fire the shadow ball at Bogmire, thus rendering him vulnerable. Luigi can then proceed to suck Bogmire in. During the process, Luigi has to avoid the duplicates. Eventually, Luigi captures Bogmire. A [[Treasure Chest|chest]] that contains the [[key]] to the [[Courtyard]] appears, allowing Luigi to proceed to the next area of the mansion.

==Trivia==
*Bogmire is the only portrait ghost who doesn't have any lines whatsoever during the whole game. It is impossible even to scan his heart for a line.
*[[Bouldergeist]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' slightly resembles Bogmire, as they have the same mouth and eyes. In addition, both are ghosts and both summon smaller, shadow-like ghosts to attack.
*[[Magmaw]]s from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' bear a slight resemblance to Bogmire, both in appearance and in the sounds they make.
