It is the only Luigi-themed race course in the series that is not a circuit or raceway course. It is also the only race course in the series to share its name with a [[Battle Mode|battle]] course, namely {{classic link|GCN|Luigi's Mansion}}; in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', this battle course uses an arrangement of {{classic|DS|Luigi's Mansion}}'s music.

Luigi's Mansion reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the fourth and last course of the [[Shell Cup]], and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting with the [[Halloween Tour (2019)|2019 Halloween Tour]].

==''Mario Kart DS''==

Racers start outside the mansion in a section of the [[Boo Woods]], and they will go through a curvy path to the entrance of the mansion, running along a narrow hall that leads the racers downwards to a room beneath the [[Foyer (Luigi's Mansion)|foyer]]. Various portraits of portrait ghosts from ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' can be seen hanging on the walls. The racers then go out of the mansion. Outside the mansion is the Boo Woods, which has a graveyard surrounding the mansion. After crossing a stone path tunnel, racers then reach the graveyard, leaving the mansion's grounds.  

Beyond the mansion's grounds is a swamp of mud, resembling a quagmire, infested with [[Walking Tree|sentient trees]]. When a character runs into one of these trees, instead of spinning out or rolling over, the character instead will just get stuck on the tree as if it were a wall. Finally, racers end up crossing the swamp to cross the checkered line.

Very few rooms from the original ''Luigi's Mansion'' game are actually explored in this course; in fact, the only notable rooms are the [[Foyer (Luigi's Mansion)|foyer]], hallways, [[Dining Room (Luigi's Mansion)|dining room]] and a hallway that resembles the one in the basement, just before the [[King Boo]] fight at the end of the game.

===Missions===

There are two [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|missions]] that take place on Luigi's Mansion, and the player controls [[Luigi]] in both of them.

*'''Mission 1-6''': The player must drive in reverse through the mansion until they reach the graveyard within 45 seconds.

*'''Mission 2-4''': The player must hit 5 moving [[Item Box]]es within 35 seconds. Each Item Box contains a [[Mushroom]].

In the original DS version, on the stairs right at the start of the race, if the player climbs up and starts turning (by holding down A and B), it will cause the game to crash. The reason why this happens is because there is a file in the game data called "no sound" (file number 4). Said sound file belongs to the stairs of Luigi's Mansion and, since there is no file in that place, it causes the game to crash. This was fixed in the Wii U Virtual Console version, and it is impossible to perform in the course's reappearances in ''Mario Kart 7'' and ''Tour''.

Luigi's Mansion makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the fourth and final course of the [[Shell Cup]], with various changes. The mansion's foyer has been redesigned to more closely resemble its original appearance. The carpet now continues onto the bottom floor, and the stone tunnel now has cobwebs. In the graveyard, a [[Glide Ramp]] has been added around a gravestone, allowing racers to glide over the gate wall leading to the swamp. Additionally, part of the wall is broken as a small shortcut to cross through with a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]]. At the first turn in the swamp, racers can take a new outer slope to reach another Glide Ramp. The portraits of various ghosts have all been replaced with various depictions of Boo, that now occasionally shake and pop outward. This behavior was [[List of Mario Kart DS pre-release and unused content#Courses|originally going to appear]] in ''Mario Kart DS'', but was cut before release. This is one of two Luigi courses that appear in the Shell Cup, the other being {{classic link|N64|Luigi Raceway}} from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''.

Luigi's Mansion reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', starting with the [[Halloween Tour (2019)|2019 Halloween Tour]]. The track mainly uses features from its 3DS appearance, with graphic improvements, and the area was given a tint of blue. Similar to ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', the ''Mario Kart'' logo uses a modern design instead of its classic design. The moon now has a bluish-white color, and the finish line banner has a new design. This version of Luigi's Mansion can also be seen in the background of [[GCN Baby Park]].
