Foyer (Luigi's Mansion)

Template:Roombox The Foyer (Japanese: エントランス Entrance) is the entrance to Luigi's Mansion. When Luigi first explores the mansion and fails to open the Parlor door, a "gold spirit" drops the Parlor key in the middle of the Foyer. When Luigi returns with his Poltergust 3000 later on, he finds Toad bawling over the disappearance of Mario. Assuring Toad that he will find his brother, the lights permanently turn on, only to be darkened again by the blackout later in the adventure. Luigi never encounters any ghosts in the foyer, even in the blackout, except for the one Golden ghost who gives him the key to the Parlor at the beginning of the game. Princess Peach also gets mentioned here, the only time actually in the game when Toad told Luigi that Peach sent him there to look for Mario. All the mirrors (except for the mirror in the Mirror Room) redirect to this room.

The Foyer is the only room (excluding Hallways) to have two floors. The door to the first floor is blocked by a force field at first and requires a special pink key, which is obtained by defeating Chauncey. The second floor's north doors lead to the Parlor, while the west door leads to the Study, Master Bedroom, Nursery, and The Twins' Room, all home to a member of the Portrait Ghost family.

Chandelier

In the middle of the room, there is a big chandelier. When Luigi steps underneath the middle of it (before defeating Chauncey), it will spin and fall to floor to attack Luigi. Then Luigi can hear Chauncey's laugh.

Other Appearances

The Foyer makes a small appearance in the Mansion Patrol minigame of Super Paper Mario. In the minigame the character must blast Boos in the foyer to earn points.

The Foyer also makes an appearance in Mario Party 8 in the minigame Boo-ting Gallery.
