“Hmm... You seem to have found something very special there, Luigi! I've heard that your chances of finding one of those is better if you have a lot of treasure. I get the feeling that bone will come in handy when you need it most! But that's just a wild guess. Yep, pure speculation.”

—Professor E. Gadd, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon

Gold Bones are revival items in the Luigi's Mansion series. They first appear in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon and return in the Nintendo 3DS version of Luigi's Mansion and in Luigi's Mansion 3. If Luigi loses all his HP and has a Gold Bone, the Polterpup from the main story completely restores all of Luigi's HP by licking him awake at the cost of the Gold Bone, reviving Luigi on the spot and allowing the player to continue the mission with the same progress as when Luigi fainted. Gold Bones are active only for the mission attempt they are acquired on. If the player finishes the mission, keeping the Gold Bone, it is removed and added to the total treasure stat for that attempt, increasing it by 200G.

A Gold Bone can be found in any unsearched, empty, and unimportant object when the player has obtained 200G or more. Gold Bones are found especially in empty drawers, barrels, or other furniture. Only one Gold Bone can be found per mission attempt.

Normally, only one Gold Bone can be found per mission attempt in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon; however, in the Treacherous Mansion's first mission, Front-Door Key, there is a glitch that allows two Gold Bones to be obtained at once. They behave as two Gold Bones as well—Luigi is able to be revived twice, or he can finish the mission with both and receive 200G for each bone (400G). To perform the glitch, the player must inspect the left suit of armor on the ground just before the last firepit ignites. After the cutscene, the Gold Bone count on the lower left increases to two.

The Nintendo 3DS version of Luigi's Mansion features Gold Bones only by means of the amiibo feature. If the Luigi amiibo is scanned, a Gold Bone icon appears next to his health meter. Like in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, if Luigi's HP reaches zero while he has a Gold Bone, Polterpup takes the Gold Bone and revives Luigi with full health. Like all amiibo functions, the Gold Bone disappears if the game is closed, and the Luigi amiibo needs to be rescanned when the player starts the game back up. Since the Gold Bone is not collected in-game, it does not add to Luigi's gold count even if it goes unused.

Gold Bones reappear in Luigi's Mansion 3, functioning the same way. They can be bought from Professor E. Gadd's Shopping Network. One is given away for free once the shop is unlocked, and more can be bought for 1,000G. A Gold Bone can reset the timer in King Boo's final phase.

-'''Gold Bones''' are rare items found in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'' and the [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake of ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. They are similar to a [[1-Up Mushroom]] in the ''Mario'' franchise. If [[Luigi]] loses all his [[Heart Point|HP]] and has a Gold Bone, the [[Polterpup]] from the main story completely restores all of Luigi's HP at the cost of the Gold Bone. Different from the 1-Up Mushroom, which acts as an [[extra life]] to the life counter, the Gold Bone revives Luigi on the spot, allowing the player to continue the mission with the same progress as when Luigi fainted. Gold Bones are only active for the mission attempt they are acquired on. If the player finishes the mission, keeping the Gold Bone, it is removed and added to the total treasure stat for that attempt, increasing it by 200G; the Gold Bone does not carry over to act as a revival in other missions like a 1-Up Mushroom would.
