The Bottom of the Well is the smallest room within the vicinity of the mansion in Luigi's Mansion and its Nintendo 3DS version. It can be accessed from climbing down a ladder inside the well in the Courtyard. The area is very restricted, as Luigi can only go to the right where the hidden side of a lion statue is, from where the Secret Altar can be seen. There is only one ghost, a Ceiling Surprise, or a Purple Bomber in the PAL and Nintendo 3DS versions' Hidden Mansion.

When Luigi peers through the mouth of a stone lion, he looks into the Secret Altar and finds Mario trapped in a painting, guarded by King Boo. The aforementioned ghosts only appears after the cutscene. Once the ghost is vacuumed, the Key to the Rec Room appears.

  • The cutscene with Mario can be watched a second time. During the blackout, the cutscene replays, although King Boo is absent, as Boos do not appear in dark areas.
  • In both the original and the remake versions, if Luigi is outside of the well or stands at the ladder's upper part, the player can slightly hear Mario screaming, "Hey, Luigi! What's the holdup?" This only occurs when Luigi has obtained the key.
