Talk:Shining Ghost

They don't look anything like ghosts to me. Aren't they just shooting stars or something? --Baconator 00:19, 8 August 2011 (EDT)
 * All the enemies in Luigi's Mansion are ghosts, so the editors probably just thought these guys are, too.M&amp;L Beware my fury! 21:44, 17 January 2012 (EST)
 * If you click on the picture, you can see minuscule appendages on the Meteor Ghost approaching Luigi. They aren't unlike those found on Boos.

I don't care what the guide says. These things have faces and tiny arms, are transparent, glow, and their models match up with the "Ball" model with the colors resembling the fish from the "Let's Go Fishin'" children's game. They're ghosts. The guide is just plain wrong. 00:20, 31 August 2017 (CT)
 * For what it's worth, the Player's Guide and Versus guide don't call it a ghost, but the Prima and BradyGames guides do. I'd cite them more thoroughly, but I'm currently on my phone and I'd rather do that when I have access to a computer. 01:29, 31 July 2017 (EDT)
