- Hellen Gravely

Hellen Gravely is the owner of The Last Resort and one of the main antagonists in Luigi's Mansion 3. Her name is likely a reference to "" and "graves." She owns a ghost cat named Polterkitty, and has a tendency to assume a haglike, disheveled form when upset, which she is greatly embarrassed about and suppresses using makeup.

History
Tricking Professor E. Gadd into coming to her hotel, Gravely released E. Gadd's collection of ghosts (including King Boo, whom she is infatuated with), leaving the professor to be captured inside a painting. She later invites Luigi, Mario, Princess Peach, and three Toads to her resort, with the intention of having them captured as well. When meeting the seven, she wore sunglasses during the occasion in order to disguise her true nature as a ghost, similar to the other ghosts wearing masks to disguise themselves. To her dismay, Luigi escapes and proceeds to hunt for his friends.

Throughout Luigi's adventure, Hellen grows more and more angry with Luigi's success and King Boo's disappointment as he captures the hotel staff. When Luigi reaches her office, she angrily blames him for her losing everything, unintentionally exposing her true face in the process. She then turns her office into a trap. When she is defeated, she briefly appears in her true form once again before applying makeup and then letting Luigi suck her in. Upon her defeat and capture, she and her Polterkitty are last seen staring at the captured King Boo in admiration.
