They are similar to the [[Blue Mouse|Blue Mice]] and [[Purple Mouse|Purple Mice]], but they are more prominent because they release treasure if vacuumed into the [[Poltergust 3000]]. In this regard, they are similar to [[Speedy Spirit]]s, which are also hidden ghosts that release treasure. Like Speedy Spirits, Gold Mice release a variety of treasure, which can include [[coin]]s, [[bill]]s, [[Gold Bar]]s, and even a [[Stone (Luigi's Mansion)|Stone]]. Every Gold Mouse releases 30 coins, ten more than what Speedy Spirits release. In the PAL [[Luigi's Mansion#Hidden Mansion|Hidden Mansion]], each Gold Mouse drops 30 coins, 20 bills, a Gold Bar, and a [[Blue Diamond]]. If defeated with an [[Elemental Ghost|element]], however, Gold Mice do not release any treasure.

'''Gold Mice'''<ref>Sinfield, George. ''Luigi's Mansion'' Official [[Nintendo]] Player's Guide, page 85.</ref> are mice ghosts that appear in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. They are similar to the [[Blue Mouse|Blue]] and [[Purple Mouse|Purple Mice]], but are more prominent because they release [[treasure]] if vacuumed into the [[Poltergust 3000]]. In this regard, they are similar to [[Speedy Spirit]]s, which are also hidden ghosts who release treasure.


Ten Gold Mice appear throughout [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|the mansion]], and they appear in a specific room from either one of two conditions. The five '''cheese golden mice'''<ref name=GM>{{cite|author=Loe, Casey|publisher=Versus Books|language=en-us|date=November 19, 2001|title=''Luigi's Mansion'' Perfect Guide|page=78|isbn=1-931886-00-8}}</ref> (or '''cheese mice''')<ref>{{cite|author=Loe, Casey|publisher=Versus Books|language=en-us|date=November 19, 2001|title=''Luigi's Mansion'' Perfect Guide|page=19|isbn=1-931886-00-8}}</ref> emerge from a hidden piece of [[cheese]] if [[Luigi]] scans it with the [[Game Boy Horror]], while the five '''random golden mice'''<ref name=GM/> (or '''Random Mice''')<ref>{{cite|author=Loe, Casey|publisher=Versus Books|language=en-us|date=November 19, 2001|title=''Luigi's Mansion'' Perfect Guide|page=42|isbn=1-931886-00-8}}</ref> have a 20 percent chance of appearing in a predetermined room or hallway. When one appears, the "puzzle complete" jingle plays, followed by the mouse squeaking. Luigi must capture a Gold Mouse before it escapes into the wall. However, unlike with Speedy Spirits, Luigi has another opportunity at catching the Gold Mouse if he reenters the location later, as long as the lights are not on.
Ten Gold Mice appear throughout the [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|mansion]], and appear in a location from either one of two conditions. Half of them emerge from a hidden [[cheese]] block if [[Luigi]] scans it with the [[Game Boy Horror]], while the other five have a twenty percent chance of appearing in a predetermined room or hallway. Luigi must capture a Gold Mouse before it escapes into the wall. However unlike Speedy Spirits, Luigi has another opportunity at catching the Gold Mouse if he re-enters the location later, as long as the lights are not turned on.
 
Gold Mice release a variety of treasure, including [[Coin]]s, [[Bill]]s, [[Gold Bar]]s, and even a [[Stone (Luigi's Mansion)|Jewel]]. Every Gold Mouse releases thirty Coins, ten more than the amount released by Speedy Spirits. In the PAL [[Hidden Mansion]], Gold Mice relinquish a [[Blue Diamond]] instead of a Jewel.
