'''Madame Clairvoya, the Freaky-Fortune Teller''', is a fortune-telling spirit and an ally of [[Luigi]], appearing as one of the portrait ghosts in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|its remake]]. Her name is an abbreviation of "clairvoyance", referring to extra-sensory perception (ESP), including the ability to see into the future. Madame comes from a part of a common fortuneteller name. Clairvoya has the ability to read fortunes by examining personal belongings. She also owns a [[Crystal Ball|crystal ball]] to help her see events to come. However, according to [[Professor E. Gadd]]'s [[Game Boy Horror]], the ball lets Clairvoya see less than 49 days into the future. Clairvoya's portrait number in Professor E. Gadd's gallery is 7.

Because she is afraid of Bowser and feels her purpose is fulfilled, Madame Clairvoya begs Luigi to return her to her portrait frame. She exposes her heart so Luigi can suck her up and, before he shines his flashlight on her, she giggles at the thought of returning to her "''sanctuary''" portrait and locks up the doors so Luigi can not go out. All Luigi has to do is turn on the flashlight, shine it on her, turn on his [[Poltergust 3000]], and suck her up. In spite of this, Madame Clairvoya drops a [[Poison Mushroom]] and struggles slightly with the capture, though her pull is the weakest of any ghost with a heart, not moving Luigi much at all.

In 3DS Boss Rush mode, Madame Clairvoya exposes her heart after Luigi shines the crystal ball.
