'''Nana, the Scarf-Knitting Granny''', is one of the [[portrait ghost]]s from ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|its remake]]. She is found in [[Nana's Room|her own room]], in the third area of the [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|mansion]]. Nana resides in the room knitting a scarf, which she never finished in life and has gotten very long. Her portrait number in [[Professor Elvin Gadd|Professor E. Gadd]]'s gallery is 3.


==''Luigi's Mansion''==
'''Nana, the Scarf-Knitting Granny''' (Japanese: ババーラ ''Babāra'') is one of the ghosts from ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. She is found in the aptly-named [[Nana's Room]], in the third area of the [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|mansion]]. When [[Luigi]] enters the room, he sees Nana knitting a scarf; he then knocks her nearby yarn balls onto the floor, thus provoking her into floating around the room on her rocking chair. Luigi must suck up the three yarn balls and hit Nana with them to expose her heart to attack, all the while avoiding her needle eye beams. If Luigi misses when trying to hit Nana with the yarn, she cackles and disappears. The only way to make her appear is to exit the room and enter again. She tries to escape with medium pulls but she is unable to defeat Luigi.
To get Nana's attention, [[Luigi]] knocks her balls of yarn onto the floor, thus provoking her into attacking him. She attacks by floating around the room on her rocking chair. Luigi sucks up the three yarn balls and hits Nana with them to expose her heart to attack, all the while avoiding her needle eye beams, dealing ten HP worth of damage. If Luigi misses, Nana cackles and disappears. The only way to make her reappear is to exit the room and enter again. She escapes with medium pulls when she gets sucked in by Luigi. In the 3DS Boss Rush mode, If Luigi misses the balls of yarn, the battle restarts.


==Physical appearance==
==Heart Quote==

==Trivia==
[[File:NanaPortrait.png|frame|The image.]]
*Nana is the oldest portrait ghost (that has a known age) in Luigi's Mansion.
*A portrait of a woman resembling Nana can be found on the east side of the [[Parlor (Luigi's Mansion)|parlor]]. This image may depict Nana's appearance when she was alive.
*In Nana's diary near the bookshelf, it is written that she once played a prank on [[Miss Petunia]] by putting ice in the bathtub she was in. This is a clue to defeating Petunia, as Luigi can later use [[Elemental Ghost|ice]] to weaken her.
*Nana is the oldest portrait ghost (who has a known age) in ''Luigi's Mansion''.
*Nana's name suggests that she is a grandmother, possibly to [[Henry and Orville]], as she owns the key to their room.
*On the bookshelf, Nana has a diary that states that she once pulled a prank on [[Miss Petunia]] by using the [[element medal|Ice Element]] on her bathtub; this is the same strategy [[Luigi]] must use to defeat her.
**Thus, she is probably [[Neville]]'s mother, as their names in Japanese are alike ([[Neville]]: パパーラ ''Papāra'', Nana: ババーラ ''Babāra''). In English, both names start with "N".
 
*Curiously, both [[Neville]] and Nana are in the second floor (reinforcing the idea that she belongs to the "2F family") and use rocking chairs.
*Oddly, Nana is the only portrait ghost that has a blurry representation of herself on her gold frame. This is in reference to famous painting "Scream"
*There is a painting on the right wall of the Parlor in that resembles Nana, possibly depicting her when she was alive.
*Strangely, in the gallery, Nana's portrait is #4 despite the fact that she is the 12th ghost caught.
