Template:Galaxybox The Ghostly Galaxy is a galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy. Many elements of this area are of a haunted theme, and Mario can even find Boo Mushrooms that turn him into a Boo. This galaxy also has the first appearance of Luigi in the game.
Enemies
Planets
Starting Planet
The first thing Mario does in this galaxy is board a Toad ship, which always leads to the starting planet. The starting planet has about 3 Swoopers and 3 Pumpkin Goombas. There is a spike that contains a Rainbow Star when Star Spinned that could be used for destroying the Chain Chomp Heads in the first mission. In the third mission, there are 3 Scuttle Bugs. Each mission has a different Launch Star to get to the planets. There is a big gap in the middle of the planet that contains a Black Hole.
Mansion Planet
The Mansion Planet is a planet that resembles Luigi's Mansion in this galaxy. It is visited only in the first and third missions, though the third mission only has part of the Mansion. In the first mission, when Mario (or Luigi) enters the Mansion, he will come face-to-face to his first Boo in the game, providing that the player has not decided to skip this galaxy and go to another Boo containing galaxy (i.e. Deep Dark Galaxy).The Boo can be exterminated with a ray of light that gets turned on by a switch near the door. Also, there are some boxes near the edges of the room. Some of them contains Toads that give Mario information. Others give him Coins and Star Bits. There is a painting of a Boo on top of the stairs and when Mario or Luigi goes near it, the Boo spouts out. Mario and Luigi defeats the Boo to get a key. There are also some Bowser Statues near the Boxes. After he enters the door, he is now faced the challenge of finding the 5 Star Chips that makes a Launch Star that goes to the upper floor of the mansion. While finding the Star Chips, some Pumpkin Heads are there to make life difficult for Mario (or Luigi). Once he is on the upper floor, he has the dicision to go right or left. He goes left, (optional) and finds some Coins to add to his collection. But while he is collecting the 2 coins, he astonishingly sees his poor brother (or twin) trapped in a prison. Seemingly by accident however, since the Boos don't seem to have any interest in Luigi. Mario (or L.) decides to rescue his brother. He goes to the right and collects the Key to unlock the door. Going through it he finds 2 Boos that appear in front of him, he kills them by Star Spinning them into a ray of light. Or he can avoid them. Either way. Or if he wanted to suicide, allows himself to get bumped 3 times by the Boos. Anyways, further on will be a sign. However, it is unreadable as it is in the Boo language. Distraught, the hero goes forward to meet a ? Coin. The first Boo mushroom in the game appears right in front of the hero's eyes. The hero can now read the sign which reveals to be a Jill Board who teaches him how to be a Boo. The plumber then goes through the bars being a Boo, and enter another room. He finds a Boo in it. The Boo however, seems to find Mario (or L.) incredibly attractive and decides to persuit him. Which indicates the the Boo is female. Either that or homosexual. Anyways, when the Boo touches Mario or Luigi, thier identity is revealed, and the Boo gets infuriated. The plumber destroys her (or him) by turning her into the light. The brother of Luigi then continues to get another Boo mushroom near the corner and uses it to pass through the walls to rescue Luigi.
In the third mission, only the first part of the mansion is seen, the part with the Bowser statues. Instead of a Boo painting however, it is a Bomb Boo. It is used to destroy the statues to get coins. Or to destroy the statue in the fireplace to proceed onwards. There are also boxes that contiains coins. Star Bits, or Toads. It is noted that when Mario or Luigi enters the fireplace he is automatically inside a Launch Star. While it is everyone's instinct to flick the Wii remote, it is reccommendded that the player, wait until getting off the Launch Star to get some goodies.
Levels
Luigi and the Haunted Mansion
At first, Mario starts off on the Toad Brigade's ship, but has to use a Launch Star to reach the pathway into the mansion (the Toads most likely to scared to go farther). Pumpkin Goombas litter the pathway, so Mario must be careful. Boos are inside the mansion, but a switch activates a swinging beam of light, which Mario has to lure them into to defeat them and get the items they are guarding. One of the Boos has a key to get deeper into the mansion.
Soon, Star Chips can be collected to rebuild a Launch Star which will then be located in one of the windows where a black hole was before. Using the Launch Star, Mario is then launched into another part of the mansion, where Luigi is calling for help beyond an impassable window. Mario will have to find another way inside, where he discovers a new power-up, the Boo Mushroom. As Boo Mario, he needs to vanish to pass through the bars, but he must be careful as a beam of light which will make him lose the Boo Suit is in the next area. Mario needs to return to normal before he can speak with Luigi to get the Power Star.
A Very Spooky Sprint
In this level, Mario must blast to the edge of the galaxy and race the Spooky Speedster through an area that looks like the Bone Pen.
Beware of Bouldergeist
Mario is informed by a member of the Toad Brigade that Luigi has been kidnapped by "The monster that lives up ahead". Mario will have to find his way to a circular stone platform and then meets Bouldergeist, a ghost with the ability to control stone. Mario will have to defeat Bouldergeist with Bomb Boos. After taking an amount of damage it eventually explodes, leaving behind a Power Star.
Bouldergeist's Daredevil Run
Very similiar to Beware of Bouldergeist, however Mario starts on the boss planet with a health max. of 1. This mission, until completed, is only available while a Daredevil Comet is in orbit. It is a very hard star to get since there are many ways to get hurt.
Purple Coins in the Bone Pen
Mario starts off on a small planet with the "Bone Pen" in front of it. The Bone Pen features bones as walls, meaty bones as bumpers, spiky balls as obstacles, and Pull Stars for getting around. Thre are more than 100 Purple Coins, but only 100 have to be collected by the player before the Power Star appears in the center of the pen. This mission, until completed, is only available when a Purple Comet is in orbit, and has a one minute time limit.
Matter Splatter Mansion
A mission similar to the Matter Splatter Galaxy. While playing the level "A Very Spooky Sprint", the ring shaped planet containing pumpkin-headed Goombas also has two breakable stalagmites. One contains a Rainbow Star, and the other contains a Launch Star to the Matter Splatter Mansion (there is a sort of light around the one with the launch star). Platforms and rooms only exist when a sort of "Spot Light" comes over them. The Player will need to go through, getting keys, and unlocking doors to get through; eventually, there will be a Power Star behind one of the doors.
Trivia
- In the level "Beware of Bouldergeist", a Toad at the beginning of the level said Bouldergeist kidnapped Luigi, although Luigi does not make an appearance in the level. It is assumed, however that Bouldergeist is the creature that brought Luigi to the Ghostly Galaxy, as seen it the first level,"Luigi and the Haunted Mansion".
- The level "Luigi and the Haunted Mansion" is an obvious reference to "Luigi's Mansion".
- Strangely, when the player is Luigi, the trapped Luigi still shouts 'Mario'. This may have been something the developers missed.
