Shivers, the Wandering Butler, is one of the portrait ghosts in Luigi's Mansion and its remake. His first name comes from a term for reflexive muscle movements used to maintain body temperature when cold or afraid. In life, Shivers served as a butler for his unnamed master, and died at the age of 72, making him the second oldest ghost (with a known age), with Nana being the oldest at 76. According to the Game Boy Horror, he wanders around looking for the will his last master left and hoping he is in it. He is afraid of fire to the point that when he sees it, he runs in fear. He is smitten with the beautiful Melody Pianissima, but it seems that she does not return his affections at all, possibly due to the huge age gap between them. His portrait number in Professor E. Gadd's gallery is 8.
Shivers is found wandering the north corridor of the first floor hallway after Luigi captures the Floating Whirlindas. At first, he appears as nothing but a floating candelabra. When the Poltergust 3000 gains the ability to expel flames, Luigi can light his candelabra. It causes him to panic and run into the Butler's Room, where Shivers sits and starts complaining to himself, which is when he becomes vulnerable. If Luigi vacuums Shivers but does not capture him in one try, Shivers reappears at the entrance of the room, and if Luigi does not vacuum the ghost up quickly, he leaves the room and returns to the upper hall. In 3DS Boss Rush mode, the battle starts with Shivers sitting on the chair. After Luigi sucks up Shivers, the lights come on, and he earns the key to the Conservatory.
General information
Physical appearance
Shivers has a long face with a square jaw. He has a blue-green skin color and unlike many other ghosts, he has green eyes. He has gelled back purple hair which forms a vampire-like widow's peak at his hairline; this look is furthered by Shivers' coat, which is black and has a red collar. Under his unbuttoned coat, Shivers wears a light purple shirt that has gold buttons and a maroon bow-tie.
