The Poltergust 5000 is an object in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'' and ''[[Luigi's Mansion 2 HD]]''. It is the vacuum that Luigi uses throughout the game. When the [[Ghost (Luigi's Mansion series)|ghosts]] of [[Evershade Valley]] become hostile due to the shattering of the [[Dark Moon]], E. Gadd escapes, leaving the Poltergust 5000 behind. As part of the [[Poltergust 5000 (mission)|first mission]] of the game, recovering the vacuum from the vehicle in the [[Garage (Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon)|Garage]] is Luigi's first objective. While the Poltergust 5000 is marked as an improved version of the Poltergust 3000, they share the same basic properties. Players can use the Poltergust 5000's vacuum by pressing {{button|3ds|R}} and blow things away by pressing {{button|3ds|L}}. While the Poltergust 5000 does retain the [[Flashlight]] attachment, it works differently than the original version's. The basic light can no longer stun ghosts, so the player has to first find the [[Strobulb]] in order to do so. The Strobulb can be used by pressing {{button|3ds|A}}. If the player long presses {{button|3ds|A}}, the Strobulb's range will increase, however, the Strobulb can stun a maximum five ghosts, three of which can be captured, but the other two will not be captured.  While the Poltergust 5000 cannot expel elements like the Poltergust 3000 could, an additional [[Dark-Light Device]] can be added to the Poltergust 5000, which is used to uncover invisible secrets.

Unlike the Poltergust 3000, the Poltergust 5000 can perform a "Power Surge"<ref>{{cite|title=''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'' instruction booklet|quote=(When POWER GAUGE appears) Press {{button|3ds|A}} for power surge}}{{page needed}}</ref> attack while sucking in ghosts. After charging a meter for a short time, players can press {{button|3ds|A}} to deal extra damage. A blue, green, or red surge drains 10, 20 or 50 health respectively. Furthermore, sucking multiple ghosts fills the meter faster and surges will damage all of them. Ghosts defeated with a blue, green, or red surge drop 3 coins, 1 gold bar, or 3 gold bars respectively. Catching multiple ghosts at once also causes each to drop an additional gold bar. The Power Surge is required to defeat [[Creeper]]s, enemies with [[paranormal shield]]s, and [[Possessor]] bosses.
