'''Bogmire''' is a shadowy [[portrait ghost]] that is found in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|its 3DS remake]]. He appears as a purple ghost with a large mouth, yellow eyes, and thin, constantly outstretched arms. Bogmire lives under a tombstone in the [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|mansion]]'s [[Graveyard]], and acts as the boss of Area Two. According to his [[Game Boy Horror]] entry, Bogmire is the manifestation of the mansion's fear and despair; he does not speak (making him the only area boss without any dialogue), and the Game Boy Horror cannot scan his heart for text. His name is a portmanteau of "bog" and "mire", which refer to different kinds of swampland, likely in reference to his drippy appearance. Bogmire's portrait number in the [[Gallery (Luigi's Mansion)|Gallery]] is 19.
'''Bogmire, the Cemetery Shadow''' (Japanese: シャドーマ ''Shadōma''), is a purple portrait ghost of unknown age from the game ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. His name is derived from "bog" and "quagmire" (or just "mire"), two types of swamps. He resides in the [[Graveyard]] of [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|Luigi's Mansion]] during the events of the game and is the boss of the second area. Bogmire is the manifestation of the mansion's fear and despair, although he does not know who to fear or what to despair. Bogmire can summon [[Black Bogmire]]s. He can also teleport around an area with a flash of lightning.


Bogmire can only be fought after Luigi vacuums every [[Mr. Bones]] in the Graveyard, as by doing so, the large headstone begins to glow. When Luigi approaches it, lightning strikes near the tombstone as Bogmire springs out, and Luigi jumps back in horror. He is then transported into a mysterious arena, where a large Black Bogmire comes out and approaches him, while several others also appear in the field. Bogmire teleports around the arena, with his presence announced by lightning strikes and the appearance of his shadow; his only means of offense is spawning shadowy translucent doppelgangers called [[Black Bogmire]]s from the ground (and often from his actual shadow). Bogmire vanishes some time after the Black Bogmires spawn, signaled by his shadow vanishing, and he reappears elsewhere and repeat the pattern. The size of his shadow upon appearing determines the size of the specific Black Bogmire that spawns from it. To vacuum Bogmire, Luigi must suck up any of the Black Bogmires with his [[Poltergust 3000]], shaping it into a ball that he can aim at Bogmire. If hit, he is enveloped by the ball of shadow, rendering him vulnerable. Bogmire is one of the trickier ghosts to vacuum up, and may break free of Luigi's grasp within a few seconds. Additionally, he deliberately tries to pull Luigi through any active Black Bogmires. After capturing Bogmire, Luigi is returned to the Graveyard, where a large [[Treasure chest|chest]] with the [[key]] to the [[Courtyard (Luigi's Mansion)|Courtyard]] appears.
[[Luigi]] encounters Bogmire during his quest to save his brother, [[Mario]], from [[King Boo]]. Three (five in the [[Hidden Mansion]]) [[Mr. Bones]] hide in the tombstones in the area prior to the boss fight. After Luigi dispatches them with the [[Poltergust 3000]], the largest headstone begins to glow. As Luigi approaches the stone, Bogmire reveals himself and transports Luigi to an arena.


Bogmire is the only portrait ghost in the original [[Nintendo GameCube]] version who has a portrait displaying another enemy, particularly his gold frame, in which a [[Black Bogmire]] is also shown.

After the transport, the battle begins. To attack Luigi, Bogmire creates Black Bogmires, ranging from small to large sizes. These duplicates attack Luigi as Bogmire warps around the arena. To capture Bogmire, Luigi has to suck in the ghosts, which transforms them into a shadowy ball. Luigi must fire the shadow ball at Bogmire, thus rendering him vulnerable. Luigi can then proceed to suck Bogmire in. During the process, Luigi has to avoid the duplicates. Eventually, Luigi captures Bogmire. A [[Treasure Chest|chest]] that contains the [[key]] to the [[Courtyard]] appears, allowing Luigi to proceed to the next area of the mansion.
