Miss Petunia is a portrait ghost in Luigi's Mansion and its remake. She wears a multicolored bathing suit with a matching shower cap. Miss Petunia has pig hooves for hands, a matching pink nose, a sideways oval shaped head with a very distinct chin, hot pink skin, and small yellow eyes with long black lashes. She was apparently the "Miss Ghost" runner-up six years before the game's events, but has had little modeling work lately, according to her Game Boy Horror profile. Miss Petunia's portrait number in the Gallery is 6.[1]
Miss Petunia can be found in the Bathroom on the second floor, taking a shower. Her silhouette on the curtain a slim figure washing her hair, contrasting with her actual design. When Miss Petunia is exposed by moving the shower curtains, she attacks by shooting a blast of hot water, inflicting ten HP of damage if it hits Luigi. When Miss Petunia is hit by a blast of ice from the Ice Element Medal, she sneezes and becomes vulnerable to being vacuumed into the Poltergust 3000.[2] This method is hinted at from Nana's diary, which reveals that Miss Petunia was subject to a practical joke from Nana filling her bathtub with ice. After Miss Petunia is caught, the key to the Billiards Room appears.
In the E3 2001 prototype, while Miss Petunia's silhouette is visible on the shower curtains of the Bathroom, Miss Petunia does not appear herself, so the silhouette merely contributes to the eerie ambience.
