The '''Bottom of the Well''' is the smallest room within the vicinity of the [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|mansion]] in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and its [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|Nintendo 3DS version]]. It can be accessed from climbing down a [[ladder]] inside the well in the [[Courtyard (Luigi's Mansion)|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 (Luigi's Mansion series)|ghost]], a [[Ceiling Surprise]], or a [[Purple Bomber]] in the PAL and Nintendo 3DS versions' Hidden Mansion.
The '''Bottom of the Well''' (Japanese: 井戸の下 ''Bottom of the Well'') is the smallest room of the [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|mansion]] in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'', though it technically is not part of the mansion itself. It is cleared in the third Area.


When Luigi peers through the mouth of a stone lion, he looks into the Secret Altar and finds [[Mario]] trapped in a [[Mario's Painting|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.
Following the [[Toad]]'s advice, Luigi dropped down to the Bottom of the Well, via a conveniently placed ladder. East was the only way to go, so [[Luigi]] explored. At the end of the short room, Luigi peered through the mouth of a stone lion into a sparkling room that looked quite religious. The room was golden and sparkling, and didn't look too run-down and dreary like the rest of the Mansion. It was then Luigi noticed a painting mounted on the far wall. Inside the painting, he saw his brother, trapped inside, pounding on the frame for help! Luigi tried to reach out for his brother, but it was no use. He would have to find a way into that room. Turning back, the dejected plumber came face to face with a [[Ceiling Surprise]] (a [[Purple Bomber]] in the PAL Hidden Mansion). Luigi put the ghost in the dust bag of his [[Poltergust 3000|vacuum]] and procured the Key to the [[Rec Room]]. Luigi climbed up the ladder back into the Courtyard and used his new Key to enter the Rec Room.

{{LM mansion map}}
*"'''Bottom of the Well'''" is another name given to a dungeon found in ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'' video game.
*The cutscene with Mario can be watched a second time. During the blackout, the cutscene replays, although King Boo is absent, as [[Boo]]s do not appear in dark areas.
*While listening closely outside the well, one can hear Mario saying "Hey Luigi! What's the holdup?"
*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.
*If Luigi enters the Bottom of the Well during the blackout, he can see Mario again through the statue, but King Boo will not be visible.
