'''Spooky, the Hungry Guard Dog''', is a four-year old bulldog portrait ghost. He was known to bite any seemingly edible thing in sight, but had a passion for bones (like all dogs). Like the other portrait ghosts, Spooky was released by [[King Boo]] after the capture of [[Boolossus]]. When [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|Luigi's Mansion]] materialized out of thin air a few days later, Spooky took up residence in the [[Boneyard]] in the mansion's backyard. Specifically, Spooky guarded the doghouse, the entrance to the cemetery and the lair of [[Bogmire]]. Ultimately, Spooky was captured and returned to his portrait prison by [[Luigi]].
'''Spooky, the Hungry Guard Dog''', is a four-year old bulldog [[portrait ghost]] in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|its Nintendo 3DS version]]. It is a lavender bulldog ghost with only two paws in front and a ghostly tail at the back. It sports tiny, pale blue eyes, a purplish black nose, droopy ears, and four large fangs in its massive lower jaw. It wears a red spiked collar around its neck. It is known to bite any seemingly edible thing in sight. Like the other portrait ghosts, Spooky is released by [[King Boo]] after the capture of [[Boolossus]]. Its portrait number in the [[Gallery (Luigi's Mansion)|Gallery]] is 13.


Before Luigi could challenge Bogmire and continue his search for Mario, the green-clad plumber had to go through Spooky. To distract Spooky from his duties, Luigi had to come pretty close to the ghost dog. Spooky would spot Luigi and begin to chase him around the Boneyard, attempting to bite the novice ghost hunter (and causing massive damage if he was successful) each time after barking. If he did, the pooch wouldn't let go of Luigi's rump until he was shaken off. The green hero had to wait for Spooky to bark for times. All that barking annoyed a [[Skeleton Ghost]] named Mr. Bones residing in the yard. This guy complains wanting Spooky to shut up, but then goes around the Boneyard accidentally attacking Luigi too. As such, Luigi captured the skeletal ghost, leaving a bone in the ground. Of course, Spooky could not resist such a treat, and stopped chasing Luigi to lick the bone. When this happened, Spooky let his guard down and became vulnerable. Using the Poltergust, Luigi began to pull the dog ghost into the vacuuming device. Spooky resisted and pulled back strongly himself; however, the guard dog ultimately succumbed to the Poltergust's power.
Spooky resides in the [[Boneyard]] in the mansion's backyard, where it rests in a doghouse. When [[Luigi]] approaches Spooky, the dog spots him and begins to chase him around the Boneyard, attempting to bite him each time after barking. If it does, Spooky will not let go of Luigi until it is shaken off, causing it to flip in the air and whine. After Spooky barks four times, an annoyed [[Mr. Bones]] appears. He complains about the noise and then attacks Luigi. Capturing Mr. Bones leaves a bone in the ground. Spooky stops chasing Luigi to lick the bone, causing it to let its guard down. In this state, Spooky is vulnerable and can be vacuumed by the [[Poltergust 3000]]. After struggling, Spooky is eventually captured, which causes a vortex leading to the [[Graveyard]] to appear in its doghouse.


After capturing Spooky, Luigi preceded to enter the portrait ghosts dog house. To do so, Luigi examined the small house with his [[Game Boy Horror]], activating a mystical vacuum. When the Luigi entered this vacuum, the green-clad plumber was warped to a tree stump in the [[Graveyard]], the home of the second boss, Bogmire.

Spooky, the Hungry Guard Dog, is a four-year old bulldog portrait ghost in Luigi's Mansion and its Nintendo 3DS version. It is a lavender bulldog ghost with only two paws in front and a ghostly tail at the back. It sports tiny, pale blue eyes, a purplish black nose, droopy ears, and four large fangs in its massive lower jaw. It wears a red spiked collar around its neck. It is known to bite any seemingly edible thing in sight. Like the other portrait ghosts, Spooky is released by King Boo after the capture of Boolossus. Its portrait number in the Gallery is 13.

Spooky resides in the Boneyard in the mansion's backyard, where it rests in a doghouse. When Luigi approaches Spooky, the dog spots him and begins to chase him around the Boneyard, attempting to bite him each time after barking. If it does, Spooky will not let go of Luigi until it is shaken off, causing it to flip in the air and whine. After Spooky barks four times, an annoyed Mr. Bones appears. He complains about the noise and then attacks Luigi. Capturing Mr. Bones leaves a bone in the ground. Spooky stops chasing Luigi to lick the bone, causing it to let its guard down. In this state, Spooky is vulnerable and can be vacuumed by the Poltergust 3000. After struggling, Spooky is eventually captured, which causes a vortex leading to the Graveyard to appear in its doghouse.
