List of Boos in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon

Boodonkulous, one of the Boos in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon

During the events of Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, King Boo uses his power-enhancing crown to give the Boos a new ability: creating Spirit Balls, which makes objects invisible to the naked eye. The player can visit the Boo Canister in E. Gadd's Vault at anytime to see the amount of Boos they have caught.

Excluding Big Boo, only two Boos are required to be caught in the game. These Boos are found in Gloomy Manor's A-4: Visual Tricks, and Treacherous Mansion's E-2: Double Trouble. Capturing every Boo in a single mansion will unlock an extra mission for that mansion.

This is a list of all the Boos that appear in the game in the order they appear. There are 32 Boos total (not counting King Boo), 22 of which are unique and scattered across the game's missions, and Big Boo counts as ten Boos in E-4: Ambush Manuever. The chart shows each Boo's name, its amount of HP, the mission it is found in, the room it starts out in, and the object or saying that the said Boo is based on. Some of the Boos have different names depending on the game's region or console version.

Trivia[edit]

  • JamBoolaya references GumBoo from Luigi's Mansion. Both are named after dishes in Louisiana Creole cuisine: jambalaya and gumbo.
  • Bootine and Booger are the only Boos to have a name change between the American and British versions.
  • ParaBoola's dialogue is similar in both the American and British versions of the game, the only difference being is that the American version is long-winded and technical, while the British English version is much shorter.
  • Boouncer's dialogue seems to be a reference to a scene in the 2008 British TV series The Inbetweeners, where the character Simon is briefly denied entry to a club because of his choice of footwear.
  • The Japanese names of some Boos correspond to ones that have previously appeared, but new puns were made for English versions. As a result, there are some connections between these characters that are not present in English, most notably with Big Boo who is named Boolossus in Japanese.
