'''Luigi's Mansion''' is a huge mansion that [[Luigi]] must go through in the [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] game [[Luigi's Mansion|of the same name]]. Luigi uses a [[Poltergust 3000]] to suck up the [[Boo]]s, [[Portrait Ghost]]s, [[Blue Mouse (ghost)|Mouse Ghosts]] and other ghosts, all in order to find [[Mario]], who had gone missing.
'''Luigi's Mansion''' is a huge [[Ghost House]] constructed by the [[Boo]]s that [[Luigi]] first encounters in the [[Nintendo GameCube]] [[Luigi's Mansion|game of the same name]]. Luigi wins the mansion in a contest that he did not even enter. When he gets there, Luigi finds that the mansion is haunted and that [[Mario]] has been kidnapped. Luigi later meets [[Professor E. Gadd]], who gives him the [[Poltergust 3000]], which allows him to suck up the [[ghost (Luigi's Mansion series)|ghost]]s who inhabit the mansion.
==History==
===''Luigi's Mansion'' series===
====''Luigi's Mansion''====
{{LM mansion map}}
[[File:Mansion LM 3DS.png|thumb|left|The mansion in the Nintendo 3DS remake]]
Prior to the events of ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'', Professor E. Gadd traveled the world in his youth capturing [[portrait ghost|ghosts]] and trapped them in portraits, with the final ghost he caught being [[Boolossus]]. [[King Boo]] freed Boolossus and the two of them freed the rest of the captured ghosts. They then conjured up a mansion near Professor E. Gadd's [[Lab]] to mock him and sent a message to [[Luigi]] and [[Mario]] telling them that Luigi won the mansion in a contest in order to lure them there. Mario arrives first and is captured by King Boo and sealed away in a portrait. When Luigi arrives, Mario is not there, so Luigi explores the mansion in an attempt to locate him.  


The mansion is split between three floors, a roof, and a basement, for a total of 41 rooms, with a majority of the rooms containing the escaped portrait ghosts. Several regular [[Ghost (Luigi's Mansion series)|ghosts]] also roam the halls and are found in several rooms. On the [[Game Boy Horror]], the rooms are color-coded by area. Yellow is area 1, blue is area 2, green is area 3, and pink is area 4. In the [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|3DS version]], yellow is area 1, pink is area 2, green is area 3, and blue is area 4. Despite the mansion being created by the Boos, they appear to have been trapped in a [[Storage Room (Luigi's Mansion)|Storage Room]] and become freed during the course of the game, where they are then found in most of the rooms.
== Appearances ==
=== ''Luigi's Mansion'' ===
Towards the beginning of the game, [[Professor Elvin Gadd]] revealed to Luigi that the mansion was built the ghosts who had deceived Luigi; by the end of the game, Luigi's Mansion was destroyed and, with the funding Luigi had collected on his adventures, rebuilt in [[Luigi's NEW Mansion|a considerably nicer form]], which varied depending on the amount of money collected by the [[player]] during the game time. (Inexplicably, the new mansion has only reappeared as a cameo in the background of the [[Luigi Circuit]] course in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', while the regular, now-ruined mansion has reappeared several times). There is also a harder version of the mansion known as the '''Hidden Mansion''', which can be chosen after Luigi defeats King Boo. The Hidden Mansion is rather similar to the normal mansion of the game, but the entire mansion is mirrored from the normal one, and the ghosts and [[Boo]]s are stronger. The [[Poltergust 3000]] is about 1.5 times more powerful in the Hidden Mansion.


At the end of the game after Luigi defeats King Boo, the mansion vanishes and a [[Luigi's NEW Mansion|new one]] is built in its place using Luigi's money collected by the player throughout the game. The size of the new mansion is dependent on the amount of funds obtained by the player. Professor E. Gadd also reveals that the entirety of Luigi's adventure took place in only one night and that the mansion itself was just an illusion. There is also an alternate version of the mansion known as the '''Hidden Mansion''', which can be played after Luigi defeats King Boo. The Hidden Mansion is identical to the normal mansion in the NTSC GameCube versions, but the ghosts and [[Boo]]s are stronger. The [[Poltergust 3000]] is 1.5 times more powerful in the Hidden Mansion. In the PAL GameCube release, the mansion is mirrored and the ghost placement is vastly different as well. Most of the changes made in the PAL version were retained in the 3DS remake, with the exception of the mirrored layout and the stronger Poltergust 3000.
This mansion was created by Boos. [[King Boo]] had a plan to get rid of the [[Mario Bros.]] (apparently due to the trouble they'd caused him in the past), so he captured Mario. He also sent a fake note about winning the mansion in a contest to lure Luigi inside the mansion, but Luigi (as aforementioned) ended King Boo's plan and destroyed the mansion. Luigi's Mansion looks like a stereotypical haunted mansion (therefore resembling places such as [[Big Boo's Haunt]] and [[Boo's Mansion]]), though it is perhaps interesting to note that Luigi's Mansion's two, yellow-lit windows bear resemblance to eyes if the porch is to be thought of as a mouth, making the mansion look rather alive.

====''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon''====
=== ''Mario Kart'' series ===
At the beginning of ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'', the map Luigi used to get to the mansion hangs on the wall behind him.
Luigi's Mansion has made a few reappearances most notably in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]]; it has been seen in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', where it is a battle course, and ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', where it and what is thought to be [[Boo Woods]] (see below) is a race course.


===''Super Mario-kun''===
=== ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' ===
[[File:Luigi'sMansion SuperMarioKun.jpg|thumb|''Super Mario-kun'']]
{{rewrite}}
Luigi's Mansion appears in one chapter of volume 26 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. As in the game, Luigi wins it, but he stumbles on it after being lost in the woods and Mario being missing.
While the mansion is never seen in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' (for it appeared in an instant a few days before Luigi came), its location is implied as "Boo Woods", as Young Elvin Gadd states that he wishes to start another laboratory (after his past one was ruined by the eruption of [[Thwomp Volcano]]) at said forest, and his newer lab was seen in chronologically later games as right next to the then to-be-built Luigi's Mansion. However, ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> aforementioned cameo appearance of Luigi's NEW Mansion seems to create inconsistencies with this, as it showed the NEW Mansion, which is thought to be on the same site as the original Luigi's Mansion, as being in Luigi Circuit, which is almost devoid of trees and other woodland features.
[[Image:Mansion.PNG|right|thumb|left|Luigi's Mansion in ''Mario Hoops 3 on 3''.]]


===''Paper Mario'' series===
=== ''Mario Power Tennis'' ===
Luigi's Mansion is mentioned by one of the [[crow]]s in [[Twilight Town]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.
Luigi's Mansion also made a cameo in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' where it is in the background of the Luigi's Mansion court and [[Terror Tennis]] mini-game.


The [[Foyer (Luigi's Mansion)|Foyer]] of the mansion appears in the [[Mansion Patrol]] minigame of ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. The Foyer is depicted as black with no doors leading to the other rooms and lined with empty portraits, making it look different than its other depictions. However, the ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' Player's Guide for ''Super Paper Mario'' refers to it directly as "a Luigi's Mansion foyer".<ref>''Super Paper Mario Nintendo Player's Guide'', page 144.</ref>
=== ''Mario Hoops 3 on 3'' ===
It even appears in ''[[Mario Hoops 3 on 3]]'' as the second playable court in the [[Flower Tourney]]. Ghosts abound on the court and will grab the ball should it cross their path. Players must jump to grab the ball back. Interesting to note is that the baskets on this court are attached to chandeliers moving left to right, which can cause trouble for normal tosses at the basket.


===''Mario Kart'' series===
__NOTOC__
Luigi's Mansion is also the name of a [[GCN Luigi's Mansion|battle course]] and [[DS Luigi's Mansion|race course]] found in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. The courses take place both inside and outside the mansion, and feature many environmental elements originally seen in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. The battle course originally appears in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and later reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', while the race course first appears in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' and later in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''.
[[Image:LMansionBrawl.jpg|thumb|Luigi's Mansion in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'']]


Luigi's Mansion also appears as a haunted house attraction in the background of {{classic-link|GCN|Baby Park}} in ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart Tour''. In the ''Mario Kart 8'' iteration of the course, the mansion is redesigned.
=== ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' ===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros Brawl]]'', Luigi's Mansion is an unlockable battle stage. The stage shows 5 rooms from ''Luigi's Mansion'', and the mansion itself is destructible. Players can destroy a part of it by attacking the poles in the seperate rooms. When a player does this a few Boos will appear and then quickly fade away. If players destroy all the poles, the stage will just be flat. Later, the stage will rebuild itself. Also, if all the players are not in any of the rooms and the mansion is whole, it shows the front of the mansion.


===''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''===
====Songs in My Music====
While the mansion is never seen in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', the [[Boo Woods]], the area of which the mansion is located, is referred to after the eruption of [[Thwomp Volcano]]. The volcano destroys the young Professor E. Gadd's lab at the base of the volcano, prompting him to ponder moving his research to the Boo Woods. While also never seen, it is known that the Boo Woods is the location of his lab as seen in ''Luigi's Mansion''.

===''Mario Power Tennis''===
[[File:MPTLuigimansion.jpg|thumb|Luigi's Mansion Court]]
{{main|Luigi's Mansion Court}}
Luigi's Mansion Court is a default court in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', and is it set in the [[Courtyard (Luigi's Mansion)|Courtyard]]. There are numerous ghosts watching the game. In the normal version of this court, it is set on a concrete field, with no real gimmicks in it. In the gimmick version, on occasion, a ghost appears on either side of the court and can harass the players. This slows them down, making it more difficult to move and hit the ball at the right time. However, if a player lands the ball onto the mid-back space on the court (which has a picture of a light bulb on it), all the ghosts on the other side of the court disappear. The [[Minigame]] [[Terror Tennis]] is held on this court. Unlike in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', this mansion is actually the mansion (presumably in its older form) seen in ''Luigi's Mansion''.

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
{{main|Luigi's Mansion (stage)}}
[[File:Luigi's Mansion SSBU.png|200px|thumb|The Luigi's Mansion stage in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''.]]
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Luigi's Mansion is an unlockable battle stage. The stage shows five rooms from ''Luigi's Mansion'' (based upon the [[Nursery]], the [[Kitchen (Luigi's Mansion)|Kitchen]], the [[Study (Luigi's Mansion)|Study]], the [[Ball Room]], and the [[Foyer (Luigi's Mansion)|Foyer]]), and the mansion itself is destructible. Players can destroy a part of it by attacking the poles in the separate rooms. When a player does this a few Boos will appear and then quickly fade away. If players destroy all the poles, the stage will just be flat. Later, the stage will rebuild itself. If every player is not in any of the rooms and the mansion is whole, the front of the mansion is shown. It returned as a starter stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. In it, like in all other stages, players have access to an alternate [[smashwiki:Ω form|Omega form]] of the stage patterned after Final Destination: in this case, a balcony in front of the mansion's roof. The stage also reappears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
 
===''Mario Super Sluggers''===
{{main|Luigi's Mansion (baseball stadium)}}
Luigi's Mansion returns as a baseball stadium in ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. The stadium must be accessed at night, and is unlocked when the player purchases Luigi's Flashlight for 300 [[coin]]s from the [[Mario Stadium (baseball stadium)|Mario Stadium]] shop.

===''Mario Sports Mix''===
{{main|Luigi's Mansion (Mario Sports Mix)}}
[[File:LMSportsMix.png|thumb|A Volleyball match at Luigi's Mansion court]]
Luigi's Mansion makes an appearance in ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]'' as a volleyball and basketball court. During a basketball match, one of the ghosts may snatch the ball out of the player's hand and pass it off to one of their opponents. When playing volleyball, the volleyball net is covered in a large spider web. The volleyball and basketball match appears to take place inside.

Luigi's Mansion has been comfirmed as a playable stadium in the upcoming game, [[Mario Super Sluggers]]. The stadium will be located outside of the mansion itself, and will feature gravestones located throughout an over-grown outfield. Coming within a certain range of the stone will cause a generic ghost from the mansion to attack the player. It can only be accessed by playing night-time game.

==Trivia==
== Trivia ==
*Although the mansion does not appear in the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft]]'', the trailer of ''Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition'' features Luigi with the Poltergust walking into a ghost house, referencing the mansion and game.
*Luigi's Mansion is mentioned by one of the [[crow]]s in [[Twilight Town]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.
*From the outside, the central two frontal windows on the second floor are lit and drawn in such a way to resemble glaring eyes. This may be a nod to the eye-like quarter-circle windows previously on 112 Ocean Avenue, a real-world house known as the setting of ''{{wp|The Amityville Horror}}''.
*The [[Foyer]] of the mansion appears in the [[Mansion Patrol]] mini-game of ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. The Foyer is here depicted as black and lined with empty portraits, making it look rather different than its other depictions, though the [[Nintendo Power]] player's guide for ''Super Paper Mario'' actually referred to it directly as "a Luigi's Mansion foyer".
*The area [[key]]s and the key to the [[Secret Altar]] of ''Luigi's Mansion'' resemble playing card symbols. As such, area two has a heart shape on its [[door]], area three has a clover shape on its door, area four has a diamond shape on its door, and the Secret Altar has a spade shape on its door.
