'''Creepers''' are gooey, gelatinous ghosts that appear in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''. They have infinite [[Heart Point|HP]] because their defense is their attachment to the floor; simply pulling in the opposite direction cannot defeat them, so the player must charge up the Power Gauge and press {{button|3ds|A}} to unleash a Power Surge and pull them off the ground.

Creepers can turn into puddles, making them invincible. Once the [[Dark-Light Device|Dark-Light]] is shone on them or if the [[Poltergust 5000]] vacuums them long enough, they reveal themselves. If [[Luigi]] walks over them when they are in puddle form, they rise up and imprison him in their bodies, causing damage. They can also split into smaller versions of themselves. Once smaller, they can be sucked up without a power surge. In the main story, Creepers can hang from ceilings and drop on [[Luigi]] if he walks underneath them.

In ScareScraper, if a normal Creeper is summoned by a boss Creeper attack, and Luigi frees himself from it, it will disappear instead of breaking into smaller ones. They additionally make different sound effects than Dark Moon Quest.
