'''Chauncey, the Spoiled Baby''' is one of the [[portrait ghost]]s that [[Luigi]] meets in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. He also serves as the boss of Area 1. Chauncey is the son of [[Neville]] and [[Lydia]] and the brother of both [[Henry and Orville]]. Because he is an infant, Chauncey is immature and prone to throwing tantrums, although he is also capable of coherent speech. He is the youngest portrait ghost and the only area boss with a given age. He occasionally shows aversion to adults. His father Neville notes in his baby care diary that Chauncey is talented at scaring people, even surpassing his [[Henry and Orville|older brothers]].

 

Chauncey was at one point captured by [[Professor Elvin Gadd]] and turned into a portrait. He was then freed again later, when [[King Boo]] broke into the gallery to get [[Boolossus]] out of captivity. Chauncey's portrait number in E. Gadd's gallery is 4.

Chauncey is one of the portrait ghosts that reside in the [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|mansion]] during ''Luigi's Mansion''. He is found in the [[Nursery]], although his influence on the area is noticeable before he is directly encountered. Chauncey is shown to be capable of manipulating the chandelier in the [[Foyer (Luigi's Mansion)|Foyer]] and makes it fall if Luigi lingers underneath it (upon which Chauncey's voice can be heard). This trap ceases to function after Chauncey is captured.

Chauncey becomes accessible after Luigi obtains the [[key]] to the Nursery by defeating Lydia. Chauncey can be heard crying after Luigi steps out of Lydia's [[Master Bedroom (Luigi's Mansion)|room]] with the key in his possession. Upon entering the Nursery, Chauncey can be seen above a crib, hovering a few feet in the air. Examining his heart with the [[Game Boy Horror]] gives Luigi a hint that points towards a rocking horse in the room. Luigi moves the horse with the [[Poltergust 3000]]. This excites Chauncey and he offers to play with Luigi.

The actual boss battle against Chauncey then takes place inside an isolated area of a giant version of Chauncey's crib. The battle consists of three phases that always occur in a set order. During the first phase, Chauncey summons enormous rocking horses and has them charge at Luigi in a straight line (or a wave-like motion in the PAL-version's Hidden Mansion), doing five HP of damage. They attack twice, one at a time coming from each side, but once Chauncey's health drops below 50 HP, the rocking horses are faster, and Chauncey will additionally summon two of them at once after the first two. Next comes the second phase, in which Chauncey makes various balls appear, bounce around, and then disappear again. One of the balls stays behind. The balls will take away two HP. Luigi can use the vacuum to launch the ball at Chauncey, stunning him. While Chauncey is stunned, Luigi can try to catch him with the Poltergust 3000. If Luigi is successful, the battle proceeds with phase three. This phase consists of Chauncey bouncing around on the battlefield, trying to crush Luigi with ten damage. The battle then loops to phase one again and the procedure is repeated until Luigi captures Chauncey. This lets Luigi return to the Nursery, where a [[Treasure Chest|treasure chest]] with the key to Area 2 appears.

Chauncey's gold frame portrait makes a cameo in ''[[Mario Kart Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. In the former game, Chauncey portraits appear on the walls of [[GCN Luigi's Mansion|Luigi's Mansion]] battle course, while the latter game features a few portraits in the mansion segment of the [[DS Luigi's Mansion|Luigi's Mansion]] course. Chauncey's cameo was removed in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', where it appears as a [[Classic course|Retro Course]].

 

Chauncey wears a yellow baby gown that fits around his tail. He also has a white bib with a pink trim and sucks on a blue-and-yellow pacifier. His head is oval-shaped and he has a slightly square chin. Chauncey has light blue skin, glowing yellow eyes, and a small tuft of dark blue hair on his head.

*Chauncey is the only boss ghost whose heart can be checked. However, it can be checked only before the boss battle.

*During his fight, the ball that Chauncey is vulnerable to may get stuck in the air. [[Softlock|This may result in an automatic victory for him.]]

*There is a picture in the Nursery of a living baby that strongly resembles Chauncey. This contradicts the Game Boy Horror, as it states that Chauncey was born a ghost.
