History
Haunted Towers was abandoned for some time and was used as a greenhouse prior to its abandonment, but the whole area became infested with plants and started to fall apart. Everything in the mansion runs off a Hydro Generator. The Haunted Towers were owned by The Three Sisters, as three portraits of women can be found in the Family Room, toys for a child in the Rumpus Room, and a Bedroom in the west tower. For unknown reasons, there is a large graveyard behind and under the mansion.
In-Game Description
These remarkable towers are built around a colossal tree. The original owners had a liking for gardening and exotic plants, which are now growing out of control!
Missions
| Level | Image | Description |
|---|---|---|
| B-1: A Job for a Plumber | 
|
The towers' machinery isn't active. I'm guessing the ghosts broke it already. We need to get the Hydro Generator running before we can search for the next Dark Moon piece. |
| B-2: The Pinwheel Gate | 
|
With the water flow restored in the Haunted Towers, we can resume our search for the Dark Moon piece. And now I have a better idea of where it might be! |
| B-3: Graveyard Shift | 
|
It's time to repair that pinwheel lock! Once that's done, you should be able to get inside the Hollow Tree and look for the passageway to the top. |
| B-4: Pool Party | 
|
The Toad you rescued in the Crypt managed to bring back a snap shot from my tridimensional security camera! Let's take a look at it. |
| B-5: Doggone Key B-5: That Dog, the Key Hog |
|
A very frisky spectral pooch took the special key that we need! Track the dog down and get that key! |
| B-Boss: Tree Topping | 
|
We've finally got our mitts on that elusive special key! Now we've just got to get to the treetop and grab the Dark Moon piece. |
| B-Bonus: Hostile Intrusion | 
|
We have a small problem. The Parascope found significant paranormal signs in the towers. Nothing you can't manage! |

Trivia
- This is the only Mansion to have its own personal opening cutscenes for each mission.
- 6F (5F in PAL regions) is seen as ? instead of 5F
- Located in the in the Rumpus Room (Play Room in PAL Version) there is a pink doll house. The house is a close model of which resembles Haunted Towers, except without the huge tree in between the east and west tower. It is presumably what the building had originally looked like before it was abandoned. And when it was infested by the plants, it can only be assumed that the tree that had grew there had destroyed the middle tower.
- If the player positions Luigi under the leaky pipe in the staircase, Luigi will take off his cap and uses it to scrub his in between his arms while whistling a tune, as if he is in a shower.
