History WMG / LuigisMansion3

* Luigi's [[VideoGame/Persona4 Shadow]]

* King MacFrights on the other hand was never a real king or knight. He was a Fast Food mascot who died in an embarassing accident while in costume.

As a last ditch effort before his demise, Dimentio had used the Chaos Heart's power to send his soul outside of the ''Paper Mario'' realm and into the main ''Mario'' dimension, to try and find a 'vessel' to possess in order to try to destroy the universe once more - and thus, he found King Boo's crown jewel to be the perfect one, capitalizing on his hatred toward Luigi and mitigating whatever redeeming qualms he has for his own benefit. And while King Boo's finally showing resistance, it isn't quite enough just yet. It doesn't help that King Boo seems to continue putting on his haunted crown, [[NewAbilityAddiction although it isn't hard to speculate either.]]

As stated in my ''Dark Moon'' [=WMG=], the reason why King Boo is so unhinged in that game - as well as this one - could not be on his own volition, but due to an unknown evil possessing his crown between the first game and the second (hence its color change from red to purple, and the red crown not being retconned out in the [=3DS=] remake of the original game) - which could be why he ended up trying to ''destroy the whole universe just to get back at Luigi''. Here, while he does not try to destroy the universe, [[spoiler:he does do quite heinous things, deeming his minions worthless and trying to suck up the entire Last Resort.]] However, he does make a CallBack to his rant on how Luigi sucked up his fellow ghosts; back when he still bore [[AFatherToHisMen his fiercely loyal-to-subjects personality]]. [[spoiler:To top it off, his MesACrowd attack shows his clones taking on a similar appearance to his design from the first game - also before he was corrupted.]] Which means, at the end, King Boo is starting to ''very slowly'' fight off whatever's possessing him. Which could be...

[[WMG: Going off the "King Boo is possessed" theory, he has defeated his ArtifactOfDoom crown and returned to his original self.]]

Here, however, he goes back to the "putting people in paintings" thing, even making a CallBack to his rant on how Luigi sucked up his fellow ghosts; no doubt hinting that [[AFatherToHisMen his fiercely loyal-to-subjects personality]] is ''very'' slowly rising again from the misanthropy corrupting him (although it isn't complete as he then deems his minions completely useless as well). [[spoiler:To top it off, his MesACrowd attack shows his clones taking on a similar appearance to his design from the first game - ''before'' he was corrupted - and the worst thing he does overall in the game is to try and suck up the whole Last Resort into a painting (which even then crumbles after his defeat anyway), never once trying to do something like ripping apart the universe.]] Which means, at the end - while he retains his new powers, the evil within the crown had been exorcised. And perhaps it's someone familiar...

However, now that King Boo seems to have regained his original personality - and thus, finally ridden himself of Dimentio for good, this did ''not at all'' end well for the jester and had thus finally ended him.

** Confirmed, it seems: a fire helmet in Paranormal Productions is emblazoned with the number 237, the infamous room from ''The Shining''.

** Fully Jossed. None of the hotel floors are clown themed.

* Well, given how she speaks in the trailers, she sounds a lot like one. And given everything she's done so far, this trooper suspects that she might be the one to set them up ready for King Boo to go after. Also, her name is Hallen Gravely... Make of that what you will.

** Her name is Hallen Gravely. [[DarknessVonGothickName She's totally a ghost]].

[[WMG: Alternatively, King Boo [[TheStarscream will be ursuped by Hallen Gravely]]]]
It will turn out that Hallen's mostly working with him to open a chain of hotels across the world, but she gets frustrated and upset with how he keeps using her staff as [[WeHaveReserves undead shields]]. Eventually, near the end, she turns on him, calls out his behavior - and also reveals that King Boo is such a BadBoss [[TheDogBitesBack she's won over the Boos]], who help knock him out and stuff him [[LaserGuidedKarma into a painting]]. She then possesses the Last Resort itself [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever to attack Luigi]], wanting to keep the portraits of Mario and Peach as tourist attractions for the Koopa Troop ([[EvilIsPetty to laugh at]]).

When Luigi and his friends arrive at the hotel, we can see that Hallen has a decent disguise but the staff? They are literally wearing paper masks that anyone could see through! They were probably disguised through the same magic that hid the true form of the hotel in their eyes and it's just shown as masks for comedy's sake.

* Hallen Gravely

* [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs King Boo and Hallen Gravely]]

* A DualBoss against King Boo and another character (Hallen or Bowser)
