'''Mr. Luggs, the Glutton''' is a thirty-year-old portrait ghost that was released from his canvas prison by [[King Boo]] immediately prior to the events of ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. Mr. Luggs is obese and as stated in his bio he even ate himself to death. However, even in death, Luggs is not satisfied, and spends his afterlife eating food in the [[Dining Room (Luigi's Mansion)|Dining Room]] of [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|Luigi's Mansion]]. [[Luigi]] can just walk by Mr. Luggs as he is eating and skip capturing him. If Luigi captures Luggs, Luigi is rewarded with money in a treasure chest. Mr. Luggs is the first optional boss in the game. His portrait number in [[Professor Elvin Gadd|Professor E. Gadd]]'s gallery is 11.

==''Luigi's Mansion''==
==History==
If Luigi chooses to capture Mr. Luggs, he uses a [[Elemental Ghost|Fire Elemental Ghost]] to light the candles on the table. After lighting all the candles, Mr. Luggs and his dinner becomes visible. To make Mr. Luggs vulnerable, Luigi needs to suck up Mr. Luggs' food with his Poltergust. Two [[Waiter]]s attempt to resupply Mr. Luggs with more food. Once they are sucked in, his meal can not be refilled. Mr. Luggs becomes enraged and attacks Luigi by spewing fifteen [[fireballs]] at him. Each fireball causes ten HP of damage and briefly lights Luigi on fire. However, Mr. Luggs quickly tires out, rendering him vulnerable to the Poltergust. If Luigi does not capture Mr. Luggs in time, Mr. Luggs gets back up and breathes five more fireballs before tiring again.

When Mr. Luggs runs out of food, he begins to spit fireballs at Luigi, infuriated.[4] Mr. Luggs tires out and becomes vulnerable to the Poltergust 3000. If Mr. Luggs is not caught in one go, he recovers and breathes more fireballs, but only five of them this time.[5] Once Mr. Luggs is captured, the lights turn on, revealing a green treasure chest. Mr. Luggs' portrait number in the Gallery is 11.[6]
