What Is The SCARIEST Boss Ghost In Luigi's Mansion?! (All Games Bosses RANKED)

[@FUZE_JUICe]

the butler from the first game was the scariest ghost for me when i was younger, it might have been the strange noises he makes or his erratic movements, he was just unsettling

[@Leopez02]

Is the butler ghost in Luigi's Mansion 1 or 2?

Melody is also creepy when you say a wrong answer. She's been pretty friendly so far, but if you pick the wrong answer she just loses it and starts banging the piano keys angrily yelling "No! No! No!"

[@MatthewCampbell765]

With Luigi's Mansion 1, I think the game achieves a certain baseline spookiness with its portrait ghosts that comes in part from it playing up the simple presence of a ghost as being uncanny. The ghosts don't even have to be disturbing-looking or doing anything hostile necessarily, just the fact that the soul of a dead person is present and repeatedly emulating some behavior it did in life. I'd say the way that they kind of disappear at times adds to this. Also, ironically, the fact that they kind of ignore you also adds to the spookiness. They're only half-there, and again, doing a rote imitation of some behavior they did in life. I think in this sense it actually captures, perhaps, the experience of going to a place that is rumored to be haunted. Even if you believe in ghosts, you don't expect a ghost to just pop out and chat casually with you. You expect to see something in the corner of your eye. An example of something similar in Luigi's Mansion 1 is the ghost that drops the key. The subtle presence of the ghost just kind of dropping it is, in and of itself, a bit spooky.

[@DaGhostToastRoast]

I think everything you just described is what made them more creepy then lm3 did. I liked that everything wasn’t some elaborate drawn out sequence of events but instead you just find them and observe their routine. It very much reminds me of the same experience in the Disney haunted mansion ride. I feel Luigi’s mansion 1 really captured the essence of that ride.

[@jimskywaker4345]

I agree, and I think the only thing in 2 that achieves a similar level of creepiness in 2 is THOSE DARN ARMOR STANDS!!!

[@ThreeHeadedGhast]

Nothing more terrifying than seeing Chauncey holding a knife, instead of his rattle in the thumbnail.

Oh boy. You want to up the scare factor in Luigi's Mansion 1? There's a mod for the Gamecube version that changes your perspective from 3rd person to first person, along with some changes to make that sort of gameplay easier. You'd be surprised just how much scarier that game is if you're playing from Luigi's perspective.

[@Sebas-hc9hc]

Do you know what’s it called I would love to play it

[@jimgordan3447]

The scariest boss ghost for me has to be Bogmire I mean compared to all the other portrait ghost Bogmire has a creepy design and the fact that he's a product of the mansions fear and despair makes his existence a lot more disturbing

[@mariofire3940]

He only scared me during my first time playing, when he ascends from the ground in the cutscene

[@auroraEMP]

The ghosts from the first game that drop down from the ceiling were the scariest for me, something about being chased while they made that awful noise gave me nightmares as a child

[@phoenixstar0755]

The buildup to Ug is why it should be up higher. The lightning strikes so hard that it shakes the whole floor, and so brightly it allows the T-rex to move before it fades away. And by intimidation, it dwarfs most bosses in 3 easily. And don’t even get me started on when he breaks loose.

[@Spikyhall]

Putting myself in the position Luigi is in the giant knight would give me a goddamn TERRIFIED. He could probably just flick his finger at me and the wind would rip me off the floor down into the void

[@JasLamArr91]

Luigi's Mansion 1 is the only game to actually feel creepy. 2 and 3 felt more lighthearted in comparison.

[@Lemoninacup-b9f]

Maybe because kids saw the first and thought, “Oh Luigi cool! This must be for young kids like meee!” So they made the game a bit more kiddy. My 10 year old friend got nightmares from the ghosts in 1 once.

[@AarturoSc]

@@Lemoninacup-b9fIt’s mostly because the original was a team from Nintendo themselves, while the sequels were made by a Canadian studio that simply made them too kiddy.

[@krazykittenz2267]

The baby ghost from the first game it actually scared me the first time I played the game thanks

I feel like the clock tower would be scarier in real life especially when the hands are heated later in the battle and the fact that they could knock you down at anytime when they spin around (heck, they could even cut you in half for all we know especially when they're heated).

Clem was the boss that I had the most trouble with during my play through of Luigi’s Mansion 3. Also, Nicky, Lindsey and Ginney scrambling up the rooms on the floor are also why Magician’s parlor was my favorite floor in the game.

[@Leopez02]

[@AgdaFingers]

[@chigginnuggie7681]

I think the scariest bosses are the child ghosts. Not for their battles(ok, maybe for Chauncey and the triplets), but rather for the fact that they are children and the realization they most likely had horrible deaths(or just straight up died in their sleep or as a stillborn) is horrific. It makes you want to scoop them all up and hug them, give them candy, wrap them blankets and let them watch happy movies like the original Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

[@DryBones271]

Mr. Luggs isn't scary appearance wise, but he shoots fireballs at you, and if your hit, you're stunned enough for him to hit you again. also the cramped dining room with the extremely large table makes him much harder to dodge.

Ranking the five possessor ghosts because he was kind of wrong. 5- Clock. obviously. 4-Stairs. there not scary at all. 3- The Spider. Scary if you have arachnophobia. Now, were down the final 2, These 2 are ABSOLUTLEY terrifying, but one had to come out on top. 2- Chilly ride. Imagine your luigi in this scenario. you have to kill something that's going farther and farther away, slowly getting hotter in your vehicle. the stress of being on a limit before you explode. However, its not number one because if i was luigi, i would kind of be having fun, its like a roller coaster. 1- The Suit of armor. Its not scary until you get to its third phase. Imagine being luigi in this situation... the entire fate of the world rest in your hands.. you might never come back and then the ghost possesses A GIGANTIC SUIT OF ARMOR, WITH ONE GOAL. HE WANTS. YOU. DEAD. HE LITERALLY STOMPS THE FLOOR TO CRUSH YOU, but he neglected to avoid the carpets. but i would literally be stressing out. im shocked he put this one at "spooky" , not to mention your in an entire different dimension.

How about in the next video, you should rank every room in Luigi's Mansion 1, 2 and 3 from not scary to scariest!!!!!

[@ThePatchUniverse]

That's a great list. While I loved Luigi's Mansion 3 and a lot of ghosts and floors were great, some were a little bit too silly and were not doing justice to the haunted theme in my opinion. I think the game needs to keep the adventure aspect of Luigi's Mansion 3, and it shouldn't be as dark as the first one, but they need to tone down the light a little bit, the game was sometimes a bit too bright, and it's hard to feel like you are in a haunted hotel when there is light all around. I also like the more personal and a little dramatic aspect of the ghosts in the first game. I think the next game should try something in between the first and the third game, learn from both, and maybe from 2 as well, with multiple mansions, as in a village for example. Luigi's Mansion 4 : the haunted village.

The baby ghost 👻 scared me the most as a kid. The little girl ghost is pretty creepy too. What’s scariest about them though is the fact that as you said they are actually the spirits of a dead baby and little girl which is pretty dark making Luigi’s Mansion surely the darkest Nintendo game ever made.

[@CrazeeAdam]

"Old people just scare me" 😅 okay then lol. But that is a common trope in horror movies. To me kids as ghosts though is more sad than scary. As.. That means these young children died pretty prematurely. And probably undeservedly so..

[@AlfredoCervantes-tz6bb]

I have never played luigi's mansion (any of hem but i know the 3rd) But the 1st is absolutely horrifying, not because the sfx, or the models, its because the lore of the ghosts, (i'm sorry i dont know the ghosts names but ill try to tell the most seeable/known thing of them) The fat guy, he died TRYING TO EAT HIMSELF Buff dude, he died trying to lift a dumbell but it fell on him The baby, oh god i dont even want to know (same with the twins) The dancing pair i'm pretty sure died while together Shivers, idk, he probably died stuck in the freezer, his name says so

[@Lewtable]

I'd say that most of the original Luigi's Mansion ghosts are much creepier than the sequels because of the doll-like effect. Most of them are very minimalistic with their facial expressions and you rarely look at them from up close. In later games they are much more detailed and expressive and I think it naturally removes a lot of the creepiness and makes them feel *too* alive.

I noticed that a lot of the normal ghosts that you fight in Luigi's Mansion 3 look a lot more irregular than the ones fought in Luigi's Mansion 2. I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo is slowly taking our feedback on this and by the time of Luigi's Mansion 4 or 5, we end up with regular ghost designs that resemble those of the first game's more.

For sure. And I think 3 was one of the first times we see him were he ISN'T smiling. He was already creepy when he had that permanent grin. But in 3, there are several times where he just looks flat out pissed off, and that really upped the creepiness factor for me.

[@DaGhostToastRoast]

As a kid I actually found the buff ghost in LM1 scary like first I just found his voice weird and unsettling but then when I triggered him I didn’t know what to do as he comes flailing his arms at me.

King boo in 3 literally surpasses every ghost in terms of scariness (apart from captain fishhook). His glowing purple eyes unsettle me the more I look at it, his fangs look more creepy, and his evil glare makes me wet my pants.
