'''Creepers''' are gooey, gelatinous ghosts that appear in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''. They have infinite [[Heart Point|HP]] because their defense is their attachment to the floor; simply pulling in the opposite direction cannot defeat them, so the player must charge up the Power Gauge and press {{button|3ds|A}} to unleash a Power Surge and pull them off the ground.

When Creepers are first encountered, they appear as large purple puddles. When fully revealed, they are purple beings with white eyes and always-smiling mouths with tiny upper and lower fangs, two arms, and a puddle underneath them.

Creepers can turn into puddles making them invincible. Once the [[Dark-Light Device|Dark-Light]] is shone on them or if the [[Poltergust 5000]] sucks them long enough, they reveal themselves. If [[Luigi]] walks over them when they are in puddle form, they rise up and imprison him in their bodies, causing damage. They can also break into smaller versions of themselves. Once smaller, they can be sucked up without a power surge. In the main story, Creepers can even hang from ceilings and drop on [[Luigi]] if he walks underneath them.

In ScareScraper, if a normal Creeper is summoned by a boss Creeper attack, and Luigi frees himself from it, it will disappear instead of breaking into smaller ones. They additionally make different sound effects than Dark Moon Quest.

{{footnote|note|1|In ''Luigi's Mansion Arcade'', each 12 HP Creeper splits into a pair of 6 HP Mini Creepers when flashed with the Strobulb, and each Mini Creeper splits into a pair of 3 HP Micro Creepers when flashed with the Strobulb.}}
*Creepers are the only ghosts not introduced through a cutscene, and also don't seem to interest Professor E. Gadd as much as the other ghosts.
*Creepers are the only common ghost to lack a Strong form.
*In ScareScraper, if a normal Creeper summoned by a boss Creeper attacks a Luigi and frees himself from it, it will disappear instead of breaking into smaller ones.
