'''Miss Petunia, the Bathing Beauty''', is a portrait ghost of unknown age from ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. She was the "Miss Ghost" runner-up from six years before the appearance of [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|Luigi's Mansion]] in [[Boo Woods]]. She has not done much modeling work since and has gained a lot of weight. In fact, besides being overweight, she also has pig-like features, including a pig snout, hooves for hands, and a pink hue. Wearing her showering cap and bathing suit, Miss Petunia spends her time in Luigi's Mansion taking showers in the [[Bathroom (2F)|Bathroom]] on the second floor. She is captured by [[Luigi]] during his search for [[Mario]]. Her portrait number in [[Professor Elvin Gadd|Professor E. Gadd]]'s gallery is 6.

==''Luigi's Mansion''==
Miss Petunia can be found in the [[Bathroom (2F)|Bathroom]] on the second floor of the [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|mansion]]. She is hiding in the shower, behind shower curtains. When the curtain is closed, Miss Petunia's silhouette is a thin, svelte figure washing her hair, until the curtain is moved, revealing her actual figure. If [[Luigi]] pulls back the curtain with the [[Poltergust 3000]], Petunia attacks by shooting a blast of hot water at Luigi, delivering ten [[Heart Point|HP]] of damage if it hits him. When Luigi gives her a blast of ice using the [[element medal|Ice Element Medal]], it causes Miss Petunia to sneeze, making her vulnerable to being vacuumed into the Poltergust 3000. In fact, [[Nana]]'s diary reveals that Nana once played a practical joke on Miss Petunia by filling her bathtub with ice, leaving Miss Petunia in for a surprise; this is meant to be a clue on how to capture Miss Petunia. After capturing Miss Petunia, Luigi acquires the [[key]] needed to open the door to the [[Billiards Room]]. Later on, in the [[Gallery (Luigi's Mansion)|Gallery]], Miss Petunia's portrait number is 6.
Miss Petunia resides behind the shower curtain when Luigi enters the room. When the curtain is closed, Miss Petunia's silhouette is a thin, svelte figure washing her hair, until the curtain is moved, revealing her actual figure. Her silhouette is possibly how she looked in her "Miss Ghost" days.


If Luigi pulls back the curtain with the [[Poltergust 3000]], Petunia shoots a blast of scalding hot water at Luigi, delivering ten [[Heart Point|HP]] of damage if it hits him. When Luigi gives her a blast of ice using the [[element medal|Ice Element Medal]], it causes Miss Petunia to sneeze, making her vulnerable, and Luigi sucks the ghost in with the Poltergust. After capturing Miss Petunia, Luigi acquires the key needed to open the door to the [[Billiards Room]].
In the [[List of Luigi's Mansion pre-release and unused content|E3 2001 prototype]], while Miss Petunia's silhouette is visible on the shower curtains of the Bathroom, Miss Petunia does not appear herself, so the silhouette merely contributes to the eerie ambience.


According to [[Nana]]'s diary, the grandmother ghost once played a practical joke on Miss Petunia by filling her bathtub with ice while the former "Miss Ghost" runner-up was away, leaving Miss Petunia in for quite a shock when she returned to her bath. This diary entry acts as a clue on how to capture Miss Petunia.

[[File:Petunia's Silhouette LM.png|thumb|240px|Miss Petunia's silhouette when behind the curtain.]]
*In the E3 2001 playable demo of Luigi's Mansion, Luigi enters the bathroom in which Miss Petunia is ordinarily bathing in. While her silhouette is visible, when Luigi opens the curtain, no one is there. This could be purely to add a bit of eeriness to the game, or possibly Miss Petunia needed to be exposed by other means. Before Luigi enters Miss Petunia's bathroom, he exits the dining room from a door on the opposite wall from what appears to be the door to the [[Sealed Room]]. In the final version, the bathroom where Miss Petunia showers is on the second floor rather than the first.

Miss Petunia, the Bathing Beauty, is a portrait ghost of unknown age from Luigi's Mansion and its Nintendo 3DS remake. She wears a multicolored bathing suit with a matching shower cap. Miss Petunia has pig hooves for hands, a matching pink nose, a sideways oval shaped head with a very distinct chin, hot pink skin, and small yellow eyes with long black lashes. In her Game Boy Horror profile, Miss Petunia is said to have been the "Miss Ghost" runner-up six years before the game's events, but has had little modeling work lately.

Miss Petunia can be found in the Bathroom on the second floor of the mansion. She is hiding in the shower, behind shower curtains. When the curtain is closed, Miss Petunia's silhouette is a thin, svelte figure washing her hair, until the curtain is moved, revealing her actual figure. If Luigi pulls back the curtain with the Poltergust 3000, Petunia attacks by shooting a blast of hot water at Luigi, delivering ten HP of damage if it hits him. When Luigi gives her a blast of ice using the Ice Element Medal, it causes Miss Petunia to sneeze, making her vulnerable to being vacuumed into the Poltergust 3000. In fact, Nana's diary reveals that Nana once played a practical joke on Miss Petunia by filling her bathtub with ice, leaving Miss Petunia in for a surprise; this is meant to be a clue on how to capture Miss Petunia. After capturing Miss Petunia, Luigi acquires the key needed to open the door to the Billiards Room. Later on, in the Gallery, Miss Petunia's portrait number is 6.

In the E3 2001 prototype, while Miss Petunia's silhouette is visible on the shower curtains of the Bathroom, Miss Petunia does not appear herself, so the silhouette merely contributes to the eerie ambience.
