Bat (ghost)
A Bat is a minor type of ghost found in Luigi's Mansion. They came in two colors and often appeared in large groups. Purple bats would hang from the ceiling, and when Luigi walked by, the mob of Bat spirits would swoop down to attack the green-clad hero. If one managed to hit Luigi, the plumber would be slightly damaged (five HP) and the ghost would disappear in a puff of smoke. If the strike was unsuccessful, the Bat would return to the ceiling and prepare for the next attack. Gold Bats also hung on the ceiling, but would only attack if Luigi turned on his Poltergust 3000. In all other respects, they were exactly the same as Purple Bats. These ghostly Bats could be easily sucked up with the Poltergust 3000 or destroyed with elemental powers. They were not very dangerous.
