Background
Luigi's map from King Boo is inaccurate in terms of the Boo Woods appearance, but it accurately leads him to his mansion.
The Boo Woods are first named when Elvin Gadd of the past mentions them in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. After his lab is destroyed by the volcano of Thwomp Volcano, he says that he has "a hankering to do some paranormal research" and that he plans to move to "an affordable lab at the edge of the Boo Woods."
Luigi's Mansion
Prior to the events of Luigi's Mansion, Mario goes to the Boo Woods to go to a mansion that Luigi owns, waiting for him to meet him there. However, he goes missing. In the beginning of the game, Luigi goes to the Boo Woods to find his mansion he won in a contest he did not enter. In the game, the Boo Woods appear more like a background than an actual location. Luigi can go outside to the courtyards of the mansion, where the Boo Woods are seen. The woods can also be seen in the balcony of the mansion.
Mario Super Sluggers
- Main article: Luigi's Mansion (baseball stadium)
In Mario Super Sluggers, Luigi's stadium is set within the Boo Woods, located in front of the mansion. Dead trees surround the ballpark, and the outfield contains gravestones and ghosts that serve as obstacles to fielders.
