Henry and Orville, Luigi's Mansion

Henry and Orville are a pair of two ghosts in Luigi's Mansion and its remake. They are the sons of Neville and Lydia and the elder brothers of Chauncey. Both twins have teal skin, blond hair, and glowing green eyes. Henry wears a purple-tinted long-sleeved shirt with a purple stripe on each end, covered by a purple vest. Orville wears the same outfit, except his shirt and the stripes on each end are yellow, and his vest is red with gold buttons. Henry is named after the automobile entrepreneur Henry Ford and Orville after the flight entrepreneur Orville Wright. The twins' portrait number in the Gallery is 14.[1]

Henry and Orville are found in The Twins' Room, where they show up after Luigi uses his Poltergust 3000 to twirl around a helicopter mobile on the ceiling. The twins decide to play hide-and-seek with Luigi. Following their instructions, Luigi goes outside the room and then re-enters to find five boxes. He can use an element from the Poltergust 3000 to easily determine which boxes each of them are hiding in. The twins become mad and accuse Luigi of cheating before sealing the door. True to their namesakes, Henry gets on a toy car and Orville on a toy airplane. Henry attacks by trying to drive into Luigi, while Orville does by throwing bombs down, inflicting ten HP of damage either way. Luigi can vacuum in a twin after vacuuming them off of their vehicle, though only Orville drops pearls. When Henry and Orville are caught, a treasure chest with Mario's Shoe spawns, though in the remake's Hidden Mansion, Henry and Orville are optional because Mario's Shoe is in the Billiards Room instead.
