Possessor

From the Super Mario Wiki, the Mario encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search

The possessors are a group of five ghosts that appear as major bosses of the mansions in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, each fought in the final mission of its respective mansion. While each one has their own set of unique abilities, each is capable of possessing another object or being and control them. Unlike other ghosts, possessors do not have a set HP, instead only being able to be captured by Luigi's Poltergust 5000 once he completes three phases of the boss fight. Each one drops a shard of the Dark Moon upon being defeated. The initials of the first words in their names (Grouchy, Harsh, Overset, Shrewd, and Tough) spell out the word "ghost".
