In Luigi's Mansion 2, gamers will have to explore a series of mansions in order to find every piece of the Dark Moon. While doing so, they'll come across quite a few Boos, one of the most notorious enemies in the Luigi's Mansion series. Apart from boss levels and special missions, each time players return to a mansion to continue the Dark Moon Quest, there will be a hidden Boo in one of the rooms.
10 Surprising Things Luigi's Mansion Taught Us About Mario Canon
Nintendo's Luigi's Mansion series brought a ton of new things to light about the Mario canon, and some of them are really, really weird.
This guide will help players find every Gloomy Manor Boo in Luigi's Mansion 2; doing so will give them access to a bonus mission, which is only awarded to fans who've hunted down all of the mischievous white ghosts hiding in Gloomy Manor.
How to Catch Boos in Luigi's Mansion 2
In order to hunt down Boos in Luigi's Mansion 2, players will first have to acquire the Dark-Light Device in A-4: Visual Tricks. This device makes it possible to see hidden objects, release trapped objects, and track and find Boos.
To find a Boo, gamers must first scan their surroundings with the Dark-Light Device. Upon scanning hidden furniture, Spirit Balls will appear around the room; gamers can capture them to make the furniture reappear. If there is a Boo trapped in the hidden item, it will show itself once the object is recovered.
The Boo will then attempt to disappear right away, but gamers can find it by shining Dark-Light near their surroundings and following its silhouette. Once they've tracked down its exact location, the Dark-Light Device will force it to reappear and stay still, giving players a chance to grab it by the tongue and then release it so it hits the surroundings, damaging itself.
Repeat this process until the Boo's health reaches zero, and then use the Poltergust 5000's suction function to safely capture it. Here is a video demonstrating how to capture a Boo in Luigi's Mansion 2:
