So Luigi goes inside the mansion to retrieve the vacuum found at the Garage inside of a vehicle's hood. Like the first game, Luigi can use to Poltergust 5000 suck up ghosts and objects (by pressing R Button) and blow. As with the Poltergust 3000, the vacuum is equipped with a Flashlight.

Unlike the first game, the Poltergust 5000 can suck in 3 ghosts at a time, any other ghosts stunned with the Strobulb remains stunned until Luigi stop sucking up at least one and switch to the other one.
