Objective[]

Professor Elvin Gadd has left the Poltergust 5000 in the Garage of the Gloomy Manor, so he sends Luigi to retrieve it. After being pixelated outside of the manor, Luigi first has to chase down a key from a mouse to gain access into the mansion. He then enters the Garage and retrieves the Poltergust 5000. He finds a key in a treasure chest, and after vacuuming some dust blocking the door, he heads to the Mudroom and collects a key. He uses the keys to gain access to the Guard Hall and Foyer.

He finds two Greenies who place the Strobulb on a chandelier, but Luigi rushes up the stairs to retrieve it. He uses the flash to open the door to the Coatroom, and finds a Greenie showering. As Luigi tries to leave, he is forced to fight two Greenies. Once he leaves the room, he'll have to capture four more Greenies to complete the mission.

Description[]

• If we're to restore the Dark Moon, we'll need to get you properly equipped. I've got just the device for the job, but I left it in the Gloomy Manor! Mind fetching it for me, sonny?
