The Purple Punchers (a.k.a. Pink Punchers, Purple Ghosts, or Pink Ghosts) are the second species of normal ghosts Luigi encounters in Luigi's Mansion. They first appear in the Anteroom, then in other locations throughout the adventure. As the name implies, these ghosts try to damage Luigi by giving a left or right hook to the green plumber; ten Life is lost for each successful uppercut punch. Luigi can stun Purple Punchers with his flashlight, and then suck them in with his Poltergust 3000. After, he can spray them with an element to be rid of them. Purple Punchers have twenty Life.
Purple Punchers, along with several other ghosts, make a reappearance in Mario Power Tennis.
