She is [[Neville]]'s wife and the mother of [[Chauncey]] and the twins [[Henry and Orville]]. Lydia has a slender body with light blue skin. Her head is balloon-shaped, and she has blonde hair, yellow-green eyes, pink eye shadow, pink lipstick, and green earrings. She is dressed in a pink bathrobe. Lydia is vain about her well-groomed blonde hair and spends a large amount of time primping her hair in front of a [[Mirror (object)|mirror]].

Lydia is encountered by Luigi the [[Master Bedroom (Luigi's Mansion)|Master Bedroom]] in Area One of the [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|Mansion]], being the penultimate ghost of Area One. Lydia is sitting in front of her dresser, combing her hair. Luigi can open the curtains to her left with his [[Poltergust 3000]], causing a breeze to enter the Master Bedroom through a hole in the window. Lydia, distracted by the breeze, then gets up to close the curtains again, at which point she becomes vulnerable to being stunned by the [[flashlight]] and vacuumed into the Poltergust 3000.

Lydia is the wife of [[Neville]] and mother of [[Chauncey]], [[Henry and Orville]]. She is found in the [[Master Bedroom]] in the first area of the [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|Mansion]]. When Luigi entered the room, he found the mother doing her hair. Looking to upset Lydia to make her vulnerable, Luigi used his [[Game Boy Horror]] to reveal that she didn't like the wind outside. Using his [[Poltergust 3000]], he opened the curtain, letting a draft enter the room. Soon enough, Lydia had to get up and close the curtain, then sit back down and get back to her combing. During that time, she became vulnerable and was captured after some weak pulls on her part, earning Luigi the key to the [[Nursery]].

—Lydia, Luigi's Mansion

Lydia, the Mirror Gazing Mother, is the second portrait ghost whom Luigi encounters in Luigi's Mansion and its Nintendo 3DS version. She is Neville's wife and the mother of Chauncey and the twins Henry and Orville. Lydia has a slender body with light blue skin. Her head is balloon-shaped, and she has blonde hair, yellow-green eyes, pink eye shadow, pink lipstick, and green earrings. She is dressed in a pink bathrobe. Lydia is vain about her well-groomed blonde hair and spends a large amount of time primping her hair in front of a mirror.

Lydia is encountered by Luigi the Master Bedroom in Area One of the Mansion, being the penultimate ghost of Area One. Lydia is sitting in front of her dresser, combing her hair. Luigi can open the curtains to her left with his Poltergust 3000, causing a breeze to enter the Master Bedroom through a hole in the window. Lydia, distracted by the breeze, then gets up to close the curtains again, at which point she becomes vulnerable to being stunned by the flashlight and vacuumed into the Poltergust 3000. If Luigi fails to capture Lydia in a single try, Lydia will disappear, reappear at the back side of the bedroom, close the curtains, and return to her mirror. Once Luigi has caught Lydia, a treasure chest with the key to the Nursery appears.

A few portraits of what appears to be Lydia is in some rooms of the mansion: the first one is one the top left corner of the Parlor; the second is on the left wall of the Study; and the third one on top of the dresser in the Master Bedroom.

Luigi can read Lydia's Child-Care Diary in the Study, providing the player with information on how to lure Henry and Orville out of hiding in The Twins' Room.
