'''Nana, the Scarf-Knitting Granny''' is one of the [[Ghost (Luigi's Mansion)|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]]. Nana resides in the room knitting a scarf. To get her attention, [[Luigi]] knocks her balls of yarn onto the floor, thus provoking her into attacking him. She attacks by floating around the room on her rocking chair. Luigi sucks up the three yarn balls and hits Nana with them to expose her heart to attack, all the while avoiding her needle eye beams, dealing ten HP worth of damage. If Luigi misses, Nana cackles and disappears. The only way to make her reappear is to exit the room and enter again. She escapes with medium pulls when she gets sucked in by Luigi.
'''Nana''' is a [[portrait ghost]] in Area Three of ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|its remake]]. She wears a light violet dress with colorful sleeves and triangular earrings. She has a light-blue body, a long nose, green eyes, poofy white hair, and a tooth on her lower jaw. Nana is the oldest portrait ghost, being 76. Her portrait number in the {{id|Gallery|LM}} is 3.<ref>{{cite|timestamp=01:39|url=youtu.be/vsVY_MCWnPc?feature=shared&t=99|title=''Luigi's Mansion'' - Full Gallery Portraits Showcase (Bronze, Silver & Gold)|author=RetroArchive|date=January 25, 2023|publisher=YouTube}}</ref>


==Physical Appearance==
Nana is found in [[Nana's Room]], doing her usual activity of knitting a scarf. When [[Luigi]] knocks the balls of yarn onto the floor, Nana is provoked and starts moving around on her rocking chair, shooting beams from her eyes that inflict ten HP of damage. After being hit by all three yarn balls, Nana's heart is exposed, leaving her vulnerable to the [[Poltergust 3000]]. However, if Luigi misses, Nana cackles and disappears; normally, Luigi has to exit then re-enter the room, but in the remake's Boss Rush mode, this restarts the battle.
Nana wears a light violet dress over a multicolored shirt. She wears a choker and triangular earrings. She has a single tooth protruding from her lower lip, a long nose, round green eyes, poofy white hair, and pale blue-green skin.


==Frames==
Nana has a diary on the bookshelf stating she had once pulled a prank on [[Miss Petunia]] by using the [[element medal|Ice Element]] on her bathtub, hinting at how Luigi can defeat Miss Petunia.
