Slinker

Slinkers are purple ghosts in Luigi's Mansion 3. They look similar to Ceiling Surprises from Luigi's Mansion and Sneakers from Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. They act similar to Sneakers from Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, sometimes scaring him from behind. They can also grab Luigi and hound him, dealing damage to him over time until they are blown away. They are able to use Toads as a shield, as well as suck them into a floor portal. They can also disguise themselves as mummies.

Like Hammers, Luigi and Gooigi can vacuum them together, causing slamming to do double damage. When Gooigi is out, the Slinker will go after the inactive one, which can be used as bait to catch the Slinker off guard when it attacks. Slinkers have 120 HP. They are first encountered in the Thorny Bathroom of the Garden Suites.
