Luigi's Mansion is a location which first appears in the game of the same name.
Description[]
The interior of Luigi's Mansion can differ between appearances, but it consistently appears as a haunted location inhabited by ghosts. The front entrance area in the mansion is the Foyer. The main and titular appearance of Luigi's Mansion is in the first Luigi's Mansion, in which the mansion is split between three floors, a roof, and a basement, for a total of 41 rooms. In Super Smash Bros. series, the mansion is a feature within the stage of the same name, but it is a lot smaller, has only five rooms, and two floors.
The reformed, non-haunted iteration of the mansion is named Luigi's NEW Mansion.
In Luigi's Mansion series[]

Prior to the game's events, King Boo freed Boolossus, and the two of them freed the other captured ghosts that E. Gadd had caught and stored in his Gallery. The mansion was then created near Professor E. Gadd's Lab to lure Mario and Luigi into a trap, and Luigi was told that he won the mansion in a contest that he never entered. Mario arrives first, only to be captured by King Boo and sealed away in a painting. When Luigi arrives, Mario is not there, so Luigi explores the mansion to try and locate him.

In the opening cutscene, Luigi is seen walking through Boo Woods on his way to the mansion. As he gets closer to the mansion, Luigi slowly walks up the stair case, slowly approaches, and quietly creaks the front door open. Later on, whenever Luigi is in E. Gadd's Lab, the mansion is one of the locations that Luigi can decide to go to, if the player selects "The Mansion" (or "The Hidden Mansion") from the menu. In doing so, a short cutscene is shown of Luigi approaching the mansion, and similarly to the opening cutscene, this one concludes with Luigi creaking open the door.
Many of the rooms contain one of the escaped Portrait Ghosts. Nearly every darkened room consists of regular ghosts, although the hallway areas feature certain types of ghost species. Many of the ghost species found in hallways either do not appear in rooms, such as Bowling Ghosts, or seldomly do, such as Ceiling Surprise and its variant Purple Bomber.
On the Game Boy Horror, the rooms are color-coded by area: yellow is Area One; blue is Area Two; green is Area Three; and pink is Area Four. In the Nintendo 3DS version, the blue and pink color codes are switched to instead represent Area Two and Area Four respectively.
At some point, during Area Two, Luigi accidentally frees several Boos trapped in the Storage Room, and each of the Boos scatter themselves through most of the rooms in the mansion.
In the epilogue, after King Boo is defeated and the end credits are done, the mansion vanishes. However, Luigi's NEW Mansion is built in its place from all the treasure that Luigi collected in the mansion beforehand, and size of Luigi's NEW Mansion depends on how much treasure Luigi obtained in the mansion beforehand.
There is an alternate version of the mansion known as the Hidden Mansion, which is unlocked after King Boo is defeated. In NTSC releases, the Hidden Mansion's only difference is the stronger ghosts and Boos, although compensated for the fact that Luigi's Poltergust 3000 is 1.5 times as powerful. In PAL releases, the Hidden Mansion has a mirrored layout, among several other differences. Most of the changes in the PAL Hidden Mansion are retained in the Hidden Mansion of the Nintendo 3DS remake, except for the mirrored layout, and the Poltergust 3000 is no longer as strong as before.

In Mario Kart series[]
Mario Kart: Double Dash!![]
In this game, Luigi's Mansion is featured as the setting of a Battle Stage of the same name. It is one of the biggest stages in the game, having three floors. Lightning strikes around the mansion, and Boos appear and disappear around the mansion. Although they appear and disappear, these Boos do not inflict any damage.
There is also a similar looking mansion in Luigi Circuit seen close by the first big turn in the stage. Although both look similar, the mansion is white and appealing, rather than haunting.
Mario Kart DS[]
There is a Luigi's Mansion track in Mario Kart DS, later returning as a Retro Course in Mario Kart 7. It is filled with Boos and has a graveyard at the back of the stage along with spider-like trees that crawl around the stage. Luigi has a unique kart in this game called the Poltergust 4000 as his unique kart.
In Mario Power Tennis[]
Gameplay of the Mario Power Tennis special game, Terror Tennis
Luigi's Mansion is also a court in Mario Power Tennis, aptly titled Luigi's Mansion Court. In the gimmick version, there are portrait of ghosts on the floor. Whenever a ball hits a picture, a ghost appears on that side of the field. If a player runs into a ghost will hold onto the player and limit mobility by a lot. The only way to get ride of ghosts is to hit the flashlight on the opposite side of the court. If this happens all the pictures will reappear on the floor again.
The minigame Terror Tennis takes place at Luigi's Mansion Court, specifically outside of the mansion. In the minigame, the player had to hit ghosts trying to escape from their portraits.
