Vincent Van Gore, the Starving Artist, is a portrait ghost who appears in the game Luigi's Mansion and its remake. He has teal skin, white hair, a white mustache and pointed beard, and glowing green eyes. He wears a red beret, a deep green overcoat over a red and yellow striped shirt, and often carries his palette and paintbrush. Vincent Van Gore can bring his paintings to life.[1] Only his English name suggests him to be a parody of Vincent van Gogh, despite having a stereotypical French accent instead of Vincent van Gogh's nationality of Dutch, but Vincent Van Gore's unlocalized name does not base him on any painter. His portrait number in Professor E. Gadd's gallery is 21.
Vincent Van Gore resides in The Artist's Studio, on the third floor of the mansion. When Luigi enters the room, the ghost expresses his anger at seeing his creations being vacuumed. In battle, Van Gore uses sets of seven ghosts to attack Luigi; each group consists of three (five in the PAL Hidden Mansion and remake) ghosts. In order, the seven following types of ghosts are Gold Ghosts, Purple Punchers, Blue Twirlers, Red Grabbing Ghosts, Red Ghost Guys, Garbage Can Ghosts, and Purple Bombers. After all of the ghosts are vacuumed, Vincent Van Gore becomes very angry by the loss of his artwork. In this state, his heart is exposed and Luigi can easily suck up the spirit with his Poltergust 3000. He is eventually sucked inside the Poltergust and drops the Secret Altar Key. He is the only non-boss ghost to give away a special key. After being sucked up, standard enemy ghosts such as Purple Bombers no longer spawn in any remaining dark hallways, though smaller ghosts like bats do continue spawning.
