'''Carnivorous Plants''' are a type of enemy in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''.

To defeat them, Luigi needs to pull a spiky fruit off a nearby plant by using his Poltergust 5000 and shoot it at the plant, which then eats it and dies. In the Treacherous Mansion, the same strategy can also be used with a burning chicken to get 20 bills (100G) upon killing one of these plants in the Kitchen.
