A Terrible Teleporter is one of the five types of boss ghosts encountered in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon's ScareScraper. Two of them may be randomly found on every floor that is a multiple of five, barring the top floor. The Terrible Teleporter resembles a large, yellow Sneaker. There are eight variations of Terrible Teleporters, but they all attack the same.
The Terrible Teleporter acts just as a Sneaker. Most of the time, the two Terrible Teleporters are invisible. The Terrible Teleporters make themselves visible only before they attack or if the Dark-Light is shone on them. The Luigis may be able to see the Terrible Teleporters at all times if he has the Dark-Light Goggles equipped. Terrible Teleporters can either scare the Luigis, causing them to be momentarily vulnerable to attack, or they can shove the Luigis to damage them. During the fight, the Terrible Teleporters can create purple portals on the ground. If one of the Luigis walk over these portals or dragged over them by the ghosts, he teleports to a different room.
Slammers accompany the Terrible Teleporters in battle. On the Expert difficulty or Endless mode, Slammers are replaced by Strong Slammers.
