'''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, 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.

*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"
