Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon mansions, mission route and boss names
Follow the five mansion themes and their Possessors.
Edition covered
Original Nintendo 3DS game, called Luigi’s Mansion 2 in Europe and Australia. The Switch remaster is Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD. Official 3DS online play ended in 2024; local ScareScraper remains distinct.
Return to mansions through separate missions
E. Gadd’s Pixelator sends Luigi to a selected mission with its own objectives. The same room can have different access or puzzles on another visit.
| Mansion | Boss mission | Possessor |
|---|---|---|
| Gloomy Manor | Confront the Source | Grouchy Possessor |
| Haunted Towers | Tree Topping | Harsh Possessor |
| Old Clockworks | Showtime | Overset Possessor |
| Secret Mine | Chilly Ride | Shrewd Possessor |
| Treacherous Mansion | Stop the Knightmare | Tough Possessor |
Use the mission code when following a route
A-4 Visual Tricks introduces the Dark-Light Device. Later collectible instructions depend on the tools and room state of their mission, so the mansion name alone is insufficient.
| Code or mission | Purpose | Remember |
|---|---|---|
| A-1 Poltergust 5000 | Recover the vacuum | Opening equipment mission |
| A-4 Visual Tricks | Obtain Dark-Light | Enables invisible-object puzzles |
| B-5 Doggone Key | Track Polterpup | Follow the missing key |
| D-3 Across the Chasm | Advance through Secret Mine | Watch the strengthened ghosts |
| A Nightmare to Remember | Face King Boo | Final story battle |
Fight the mansion’s Possessor for a shard
Each mansion’s main boss is a Possessor using its environment or an object. Exposing the ghost is the first part of the fight; vacuuming follows the opening.
Continue to King Boo after Treacherous Mansion
The final confrontation occurs in A Nightmare to Remember after the mansion route. King Boo is separate from the Tough Possessor’s Stop the Knightmare encounter.
