** ''Luigi's Mansion'' was known for his gloomy charm. The enemies, while being simple [[BedsheetGhost Bedsheet Ghosts]] were still menacing, by their maniacal laughter and way they would suddenly spawn in the dark, often jumpscaring the player. While there were comedic moments, they were usually subtle rather than outright goofy. The mansion was entirely dark and inhabited by portrait ghosts who were the hauting memories of former people, behaving very eerily, almost unaware of their surrounding. The game also included many dark moments and was in fact dark from the beginning to the end, set entirely during the night.

''Luigi's Mansion'' is a SpinOff of [[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros Mario]] known for having Luigi, the brother of the eponymous plumber as the star of the games. Mario is in fact the [[DistressedDude one you have to rescue this time]], not from Bowser but from a hoard of ghosts, lead by [[BigBad King Boo]]! Yes, the King of Boos, those shy dorky ghosts from the Mario universe, but their leader is far more sinister than usual and hold a deep hatred for the Mario brothers.

It all started with the first game, released in 2001 as a launch title for the [[UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube GameCube]]. A choice that at the time received mixed receptions. While the game was good for showcasing the capacities of the console, the fact that it wasn't a real Mario game and didn't capture the same atmosphere was criticized, alongside the short length of the game. But fans eventually warmed up for the game after the release of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine''.
