LM3 Trap Detector
Description
"Uses a loud siren to alert you to nearby traps."
Appears in Luigi's Mansion 3 (2019)
Effect Helps the player detect and avoid nearby traps, including carpets, doors, and wardrobes

A Trap Detector is a special type of item exclusive to the ScareScraper mode of Luigi's Mansion 3. It is a small glowing red siren that is attached to Luigi's head. After finding one, any player may equip it—once equipped, the siren remains with the player until the floor is cleared.

If a player is in possession of a Trap Detector, they are made aware of any traps they come in proximity of, such as fake carpets, doors, and wardrobes. As the player nears a trap, the sounds made by the siren become louder and faster, while its lights grow larger. This is helpful for avoiding traps as well as destroying them for a sum of treasure.

Trap Detectors are rare items, usually found only in invisible objects and furniture that must be revealed with the Dark-Light Device and examined. If the player finds a hidden treasure room on a floor, they can enter to find a treasure chest in the center of the room containing a Trap Detector along with all the other special items, which can be distributed to the players.
