| '''Polterpups''' are ghost [[dog]]s in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''. During the game, Luigi encounters a sole Polterpup throughout several missions in the game and take various objects of importance that [[Luigi]] needs. These range from [[Key]]s to [[Gold Bones]]. A Polterpup, the one only encountered in the story, may also revive Luigi, who has lost all of his [[Heart Point|HP]], if Luigi happens to have a Gold Dog Bone with him. When a Polterpup has taken something, Luigi must track it down using the [[Dark Light]] function. When the Polterpup is found, he must suck it up. Upon being sucked up, their color changes to gold. Only one Polterpup is met during the main game, named ?????, consistently escaping from the [[Poltergust 5000]].

| | |
| Polterpups also appear in a specific multiplayer mode called [[ScareScraper|Polterpup Mode]]. In this mode, the group must find the kennels or locations where the Polterpups are hiding and acquire them all. Each Polterpup has 50 [[Heart Point|HP]], except for Big Polterpups, which have 100 HP, are found only in Polterpup mode of the [[ScareScraper]].<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uswNpCwIQA</ref>

| In the game's ending, it is shown that Luigi keeps the Polterpup met in the story as a pet.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *When a Polterpup goes through a wall, it leaves an imprint, referencing the Slimer from ''[[wikipedia:Ghostbusters (film)|Ghostbusters]]''.
| |
| *Despite being a ghost itself, other ghosts seem to have a dislike of Polterpups, which is shown at the [[Old Clockworks]] where one of them steals a clockhand from some [[Greenie]]s.<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xM8qViUXoYI</ref>
| |
| *A [[Nintendo 3DS#Swapnote|Swapnote]] message regarding ''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'' was sent by [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] prior to the game's release. According to the note, the Polterpup is Miyamoto's favorite ghost in the game.
| |
| *The Polterpup, ?????, is the only ghost in the Ghostvault without a name.
