Changes: List of Boos in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon

Revision as of 00:02, 17 May 2013

Like the Boos from Luigi's Mansion, the Boos from Dark Moon have names that are usually puns on phrases. However, the way to capture Boos are different in this game as Luigi must use the Dark-Light Device to stun them, vaccum at their tongues and pull back to damage them, then suck them up in the Poltergeist 5000.
