Dancing Ghost Guys (originally known as dancing masked ghosts[1]) are a type of ghost in Luigi's Mansion. They are Ghost Guys with red and white masks with drawn on mustaches who dance in pairs (pink with purple, yellow with orange, and white with brown) in a circular motion, with one occasionally swinging its spear in a circular motion for the other to duck under. If Luigi captures one in a pair, its partner will pursue him spinning the spear to attack similar to how Green Ghost Guys attacks. A group of six dancing Ghost Guys appear in the Ball Room, where The Floating Whirlindas appear after Luigi catches them, and another group of six appears on the Roof near a fire. In the PAL version's Hidden Mansion, they appear slightly less, since the number on the roof has been reduced to two.
