Poltergust 5000

A picture of the Poltergust 5000.

The Poltergust 5000 is the name of the vacuum that Luigi uses in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. It is an updated version of the Poltergust 3000 from the first game. It is also created by Professor Elvin Gadd, which he abandoned inside Gloomy Manor when the Ghosts of Evershade Valley became hostile. So Luigi goes inside the mansion to retrieve the vacuum found at the Garage inside of a vehicle's hood. Like the first game, Luigi can use to Poltergust 5000 suck up ghosts and objects (by pressing )and blow. Throughout his quest, Luigi will encounter various tools to make the vacuum's power greater by collecting treasure in the mansions. In the game, not much like the first game, Luigi has to charge up the Strobulb to stun the ghosts before capturing them.
