'''Twilight Town''' is a creepy-themed, perpetually twilit town in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', and is mainly inhabited by [[Twilighter]]s. [[Crow]]s inhabit Twilight Town as well, and players can listen to their conversations when Mario uses Vivian's field [[Veil]] ability. To enter Twilight Town through the pipe in [[Rogueport Sewers]], Mario is required to have his name to be written on his clothes, otherwise the pipe will reject him.

*The chapter in which this town is featured is entitled "For Pigs the Bell Tolls". This is a play on ''[[wikipedia:For Whom the Bell Tolls|For Whom the Bell Tolls]]'', a famous novel by author Ernest Hemingway.
*[[Goombella]] breaks the [[fourth wall]] when she tattles on the gatekeeper; she says that there is "a gatekeeper" in every town and if there was not, the [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|game]] would be much easier to beat.

*During the Bowser segment, an unseen item called the Twilight Blade can be found in the bushes, although Bowser then says "Just Joking". A similar occurrence also happens when checking one of the statues in [[Bowser's Castle]].
