- —Professor E. Gadd, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
Spirit Balls are ghosts that appear in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon and Luigi's Mansion 3 that were given to Boos from King Boo's power-enhancing bejeweled crown. Their appearance is based on either the hitodama or the will-o'-the-wisp. They have powers to hide one specific object, making it invisible and intangible, though it is still visible in mirrors and during lightning strikes. After Luigi uses the Dark-Light Device on an invisible object to reveal its presence, Spirit Balls are forced out, and Luigi must use his Poltergust 5000 or Poltergust G-00 to suck them up. The object glows purple and is unable to be interacted with until the Balls are sucked up with the Poltergust. If he does not suck the Spirit Balls up in a certain amount of time, they go back to the object and turn it invisible again. Spirit Balls can hurt Luigi if he touches them, dealing 5 HP of damage.
In Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, in a mission in Gloomy Manor, a Boo is seen producing some Spirit Balls. Unlike other ghosts, they cannot be sent to the Vault and do not appear in the ScareScraper; invisible objects simply get revealed without needing to suck them up.
Luigi's Mansion 3 introduces a magenta variant of Spirit Balls. These Spirit Balls bring whatever objects they interact with to life, such as bins and chests. Like with the blue Spirit Balls, Luigi must use the Dark-Light Device to force the Spirit Balls out and suck them up with the Poltergust G-00, turning the object back to normal.
