In life, Shivers served as a butler for his unnamed master, and died at the age of 72, making him the second oldest ghost (with a known age), with [[Nana]] being the oldest at 76.

In life, Shivers served as a butler for his unnamed master, and died at the age of 72. He wanders around aimlessly looking for the will he thinks his last master left and hoping he is in it. He is afraid of fire to the point that when he sees it he runs in fear. He is smitten with the beautiful [[Melody Pianissima]], but it seems that she does not return his affections at all.
==''Luigi's Mansion''==
After Luigi captures the [[The Floating Whirlindas|Floating Whirlindas]], Shivers can be found wandering the north corridor of the first floor hallway and appears as nothing but a floating candelabra. This makes him the only portrait ghost to appear in a hallway, as well as the only Portrait Ghost that can appear in a lit room. When the [[Poltergust 3000]] gains the ability to expel flames, [[Luigi]] uses this ability to light the candles Shivers is holding. It causes him to panic and run into the [[Butler's Room]]. Luigi follows him to the Butler's Room where Shivers sits, until Shivers accidentally puts the lit candlestick under him, which lights him on fire, causing him to start screaming and rolling around in his chair, thus rendering him vulnerable. If Luigi vacuums Shivers but does not capture him in one try, Shivers reappears at the entrance of the room, and if Luigi does not vacuum the ghost up quickly, he leaves the room and returns to the upper hall. In 3DS Boss Rush mode, the battle starts with Shivers sitting on the chair.  


Shivers wanders the north corridor of the first floor hallway and appears as nothing but a floating candelabra. When the Poltergust 3000 gains the ability to expel flames, Luigi used this ability to light the candles Shivers is holding to cause him to panic and run into the [[Butler's Room]]. Luigi followed him there. Despite the scared butler accidentally running the wrong way, Luigi hurried into the Butler's room. There he sat felling relaxed, until he accidentally put the fire candlestick under him and being the frightened butler he is, he will start screaming and rolling around in his chair. The infamous green plumber realized he was as vulnerable as ever and sucked up the poor butler. If Luigi didn't vacuum him quickly, he'll leave and return to the upper hall.
After Luigi sucks up Shivers, the lights come on, and he earns the [[key]] to the [[Conservatory (Luigi's Mansion)|Conservatory]].


After Luigi sucked up this scared stiff butler, the lights will come on, and he earned the key to the [[Conservatory]], where Luigi gets the chance to capture the next portrait ghost, which appropriately enough, is Melody Pianissima.  
==Physical appearance==
Shivers has a long face with a square jaw. He has a blue-green skin color and unlike many other ghosts, he has green eyes. He has gelled back purple hair which forms a vampire-like widow's peak at his hairline; this look is furthered by Shivers' coat, which is black and has a red collar. Under his unbuttoned coat, Shivers wears a light purple shirt that has gold buttons and a maroon bow-tie.

Shivers, the Wandering Butler is one of the portrait ghosts in Luigi's Mansion and its remake. His first name comes from a term for reflexive muscle movements used to maintain body temperature when cold or afraid. In life, Shivers served as a butler for his unnamed master, and died at the age of 72, making him the second oldest ghost (with a known age), with Nana being the oldest at 76. According to the Game Boy Horror, he wanders around looking for the will his last master left and hoping he is in it. He is afraid of fire to the point that when he sees it, he runs in fear. He is smitten with the beautiful Melody Pianissima, but it seems that she does not return his affections at all. His portrait number in Professor E. Gadd's gallery is 8.

Luigi's Mansion[edit]

After Luigi captures the Floating Whirlindas, Shivers can be found wandering the north corridor of the first floor hallway and appears as nothing but a floating candelabra. This makes him the only portrait ghost to appear in a hallway, as well as the only Portrait Ghost that can appear in a lit room. When the Poltergust 3000 gains the ability to expel flames, Luigi uses this ability to light the candles Shivers is holding. It causes him to panic and run into the Butler's Room. Luigi follows him to the Butler's Room where Shivers sits, until Shivers accidentally puts the lit candlestick under him, which lights him on fire, causing him to start screaming and rolling around in his chair, thus rendering him vulnerable. If Luigi vacuums Shivers but does not capture him in one try, Shivers reappears at the entrance of the room, and if Luigi does not vacuum the ghost up quickly, he leaves the room and returns to the upper hall. In 3DS Boss Rush mode, the battle starts with Shivers sitting on the chair.

After Luigi sucks up Shivers, the lights come on, and he earns the key to the Conservatory.

Physical appearance[edit]

Shivers has a long face with a square jaw. He has a blue-green skin color and unlike many other ghosts, he has green eyes. He has gelled back purple hair which forms a vampire-like widow's peak at his hairline; this look is furthered by Shivers' coat, which is black and has a red collar. Under his unbuttoned coat, Shivers wears a light purple shirt that has gold buttons and a maroon bow-tie.
