'''Bowling Ghosts'''<ref>Sinfield, George. ''Luigi's Mansion'' Official [[Nintendo]] Player's Guide, page 85.</ref> are ghosts encountered by [[Luigi]] in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''.
'''Bowling Ghosts''', also known as '''Bowlers''',<ref>{{cite|author=Loe, Casey|publisher=Versus Books|language=en-us|date=November 19, 2001|title=''Luigi's Mansion'' Perfect Guide|page=23|isbn=1-931886-00-8}}</ref> are ghosts encountered by [[Luigi]] in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|its Nintendo 3DS remake]], Bowling Ghosts are fairly common, though they appear only in the corridors instead of the rooms. They resemble [[Gold Ghost]]s in shape, but are yellow, have longer, green eyes, and the points atop their heads curve downward instead of pointing straight up. Bowling Ghosts haunt the corridors instead of the rooms, and are usually found along with [[Ceiling Surprise]]s and, in later areas, [[Purple Bomber]]s. They throw bowling balls at Luigi, trying to trip him. They are one of the weakest ghosts in the game as they have zero HP. Even if the player wards them off with the [[Poltergust 3000]] or an element, they eventually return. In the PAL and 3DS Hidden Mansion, four Bowling Ghosts appear also in the [[Telephone Room]] and one on the [[Roof (Luigi's Mansion)|Roof]].
 
==History==
===''Luigi's Mansion''===
In ''Luigi's Mansion'', Bowling Ghosts are fairly common. They resemble [[Gold Ghost]]s in shape, but are yellow, have longer, green eyes, and the points atop their heads curve downward instead of pointing straight up. Bowling Ghosts haunt the corridors instead of the rooms (in the PAL and 3DS Hidden Mansion, four also appear in the [[Telephone Room]] and one appears on the [[Roof (Luigi's Mansion)|Roof]]), and are usually found along with [[Ceiling Surprise]]s and in later areas [[Purple Bomber]]s. They throw bowling balls at Luigi, trying to trip him. They are one of the weakest ghosts in the game as they have zero HP. Even if the player wards them off with the [[Poltergust 3000]] or an element, they eventually return. They are gone when an area is finished, just as any other ghost.
 
===''Mario Power Tennis'' / ''New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis''===
A Bowling Ghost also appears in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' in the [[minigame]] [[Terror Tennis]] as a ball boy.

In ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', Bowling Ghosts appear in the minigame [[Specter Inspector]], alongside Gold Ghosts.
