This giant ghost is actually composed of fifteen regular Boos who combined their entities to create the powerful Boolossus. Although these Boos are normally timid and shy, when they form into Boolossus, all their fears disappear. The massive Boo is a servant of [[King Boo]], leader of the Boos, and is the guardian of the third area of [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|Luigi's Mansion]]. Interestingly, unlike other Boos, Boolossus has glowing yellow eyes.
'''Boolossus, Jumbo Ghost''', is a [[Big Boo]] and one of the [[portrait ghost]]s in the game ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and [[Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)|the 3DS remake of the game]], as well as the final boss of ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]''{{'}}s [[ScareScraper]] mode. This ghost is composed of a group of smaller [[Boo]]s. Although these Boos are normally timid and shy, when they form into Boolossus, all their fears disappear. The Boo is a servant of [[King Boo]], leader of the Boos, and is the guardian of the third area of [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|Luigi's Mansion]]. Its name is a portmanteau on the words "Boo" and "colossus", the latter referencing its massive size. Unlike other Boos, Boolossus has glowing yellow eyes. In the gallery, the portrait number of Boolossus is 22.


Before the events of ''Luigi's Mansion'', Boolossus was actually captured by [[Professor E. Gadd]] during the professor’s travels around the [[Mushroom World|world]]. E. Gadd used his [[Portrificationizer]] to transform the gigantic ghost into a painting and placed the ghoulish piece of art in his gallery of other portrait ghosts. Unfortunately, the capture of Boolossus greatly angered King Boo. As such, King Boo led his Boo minions in an assault on Professor E. Gadd’s laboratory. The Boos reversed the setting on E. Gadd’s Portrificationizer and turned the Boolossus painting back into their gigantic Boo comrade. King Boo then ordered that all the other portrait ghosts that Professor E. Gadd caught should be freed as well. Eventually, after all the portrait ghosts were released, King Boo magically created a mansion out of thin air, right next to E. Gadd's laboratory in [[Boo Woods]]. Boolossus and King Boo, along with all the other Boos and portrait ghosts, decided to inhabit the mansion and haunt its halls. Ultimately, it would be this mansion that [[Luigi]] would win in a contest he never entered. And it would be this mansion where Luigi’s skills would be put to the test as the green-clad hero attempted to save his brother [[Mario]] from the clutches of King Boo.

Before the events of ''Luigi's Mansion'', Boolossus was captured by [[Professor Elvin Gadd|Professor E. Gadd]] during the professor's travels around the world. E. Gadd used his [[Ghost Portrificationizer|Portrificationizer]] to transform Boolossus into a painting and placed the painting in his gallery of other portrait ghosts. However, the capture of Boolossus greatly angered King Boo. In retaliation, King Boo led his Boo minions in an assault on Professor E. Gadd's laboratory. The Boos reversed the setting on E. Gadd's Portrificationizer and reverted Boolossus' state. King Boo then ordered that all the other portrait ghosts that Professor E. Gadd caught should be freed as well. Eventually, after all the portrait ghosts were released, King Boo created a mansion, right next to [[Professor Elvin Gadd's Lab|E. Gadd's laboratory]] in [[Boo Woods]].


During the events of ''Luigi's Mansion'', Boolossus, along with the other Boos (including King Boo) decided to remain hidden in a secret area under the [[Storage Room]]. When Luigi activated a hidden door in the Storage Room while searching for his brother, the Boos sprang out, attempting to scare the intruder away from their secret location. However, the Boos noticed E. Gadd’s [[Poltergust 3000]], a ghost-catching vacuum device, on Luigi’s back. As such, the Boos, including Boolossus and King Boo, decided to run off and hide in the mansion, instead of challenge the novice ghost hunter.
In ''Luigi's Mansion'', Boolossus, along with the other Boos (including King Boo), rests in a secret area under the [[Storage Room (Luigi's Mansion)|Storage Room]]. When [[Luigi]] activates a hidden door in the Storage Room, the Boos spring out. However, when they notice E. Gadd's [[Poltergust 3000]], a ghost-catching vacuum device, on Luigi's back, the Boos decide to run off and hide in the mansion.


Eventually, as Luigi made more and more progress through the mansion, Boolossus attempted to capture the green-clad plumber on behalf of his leader, [[King Boo]]. After Luigi reached the [[Balcony]] on the third floor, Boolossus decided to make his move. While on the Balcony, Luigi noticed the [[Boo Radar]] on his [[Game Boy Horror]] started flashing like crazy, indicating a powerful Boo presence. Soon, the fifteen Boos that made up Boolossus appeared before Luigi, circling and taunting the novice ghost hunter. After having their fun, the Boos decided to get serious. They formed into the gigantic Boolossus and whisked Luigi away to the balcony arena, starting the battle to capture the green-clad hero and turn him into a portrait, just like his brother Mario.
Eventually, as Luigi progresses through the mansion, he makes it to the [[Balcony (3F)|Balcony]]. However, if he has captured less than 20 Boos, he will be blocked in the hallway leading there by a particularly-transparent Boo, referring to itself as "the mysterious power of the Boos," which will then blow him back to the [[Foyer (Luigi's Mansion)|Foyer]]. If Luigi has captured at least 20 Boos, he can exit the mansion to the Balcony, where the [[Boo Radar]] on the [[Game Boy Horror]] starts flashing intensely, indicating a powerful Boo presence. To the left, fifteen [[Mini Boo|Little Boo]]s are circling each other. Once Luigi approaches, they taunt him, and begin to circle around him. They then transport him to an ethereal version of the Balcony, where the Boos merge into Boolossus and swoop down upon him.
[[Image:Boolossus2.jpg|frame|left|'''Boolossus''' in his portrait prison.]]
During the battle, Boolossus attempted to slam into Luigi and cause massive damage. To defeat the giant Boo, Luigi used his Poltergust 3000 to pull Boolossus into one of the two conveniently placed unicorn ice sculptures located on the balcony. When Boolossus hit the sharp horn of the statue, he popped and separated into the fifteen normal Boos. Luigi then absorbed an [[Ice Elemental Ghost]] from the ice sculpture and began spraying frost at the Boos, freezing the ghosts. After that, Luigi sucked up each frozen Boo, one by one, into his Poltergust 3000. Eventually, Boolossus reformed with a smaller number of Boos. Although smaller in size than before, Boolossus resumed the fight against the green-clad hero. However, Luigi kept popping the big Boo and freezing the small Boos, slowly draining Boolossus’ power. Unfortunately, as Luigi caught more and more Boos, the other ghosts would become more and more wary of the Poltergust’s ice blasts. As such, Luigi had to pull these careful Boos closer to his position with the vacuum device then shoot them with a sudden stream of icy mist. Ultimately, after a long and difficult battle, Luigi froze and captured each of the fifteen Boos that made up Boolossus.


After capturing Boolossus, Luigi acquired the key to the West Wing of the mansion. Luigi also noticed that his Game Boy Horror indicated that the plumber had captured fifteen more of the fifty released Boos, meaning there were only a few more Boos hiding in the mansion. After the battle, the ghost hunter Luigi visited Professor E. Gadd’s lab, and returned Boolossus to his portrait prison. Luigi also took a break from ghost hunting for some time and had dinner with Professor E. Gadd in the laboratory.
During the battle, Boolossus attempts to slam into Luigi. To defeat Boolossus, Luigi must use his Poltergust 3000 to pull Boolossus into one of the two stationary unicorn ice sculptures located on the balcony. When Boolossus touches the statue's sharp horn, it pops, separating into the fifteen Little Boos. Luigi must then absorb an [[Elemental Ghost|Ice Elemental Ghost]] from the ice sculpture and spray frost at the Little Boos, freezing them. This enables him to suck them into his Poltergust 3000. Eventually, the remaining Little Boos will reform into a smaller and faster, but weaker Boolossus. As more and more Little Boos are caught, the other Little Boos become more wary of the Poltergust's icy spray and flee when Luigi gets too close to them.


A character similar to Boolossus appeared in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''; it's name was [[Atomic Boo]]. However, instead of being made up of fifteen Boos, Atomic Boo was made up of around two hundred Boos.
After capturing Boolossus, Luigi acquires the key to the West Wing of the mansion. Defeating the boss counts as capturing a total of fifteen of the fifty released Boos. After the battle, Luigi visits Professor E. Gadd's lab and turns Boolossus into a portrait.

A picture of Boolossus that says "Get out of here!" appears in a poster in [[Washroom (2F)|the washroom on the second floor]], and in the projection screen in the [[Projection Room]] if the player tries to suck them with the Poltergust 3000. Pull them for a long time makes Luigi fall on his back and lose five HP.

Boolossus's appearance in the 3DS remake of the game, both in-game and in stock artwork, is largely the same as in the original GameCube game, with the only notable difference being that Boolossus and his composite Boos have four teeth in the remake, instead of two like in the original game.

Boolossus reappears in ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]'' as the final floor's boss in [[ScareScraper]], this time comprised of sixteen normal Boos.
 
This incarnation of Boolossus borrows and alters many attacks from the main game's final boss ([[King Boo]]). These attacks include lightning bolts which strike glowing roof tiles, a long sweep of the tongue which can only be dodge with [[Burst]], a body slam shockwave avoided likewise, and a volley of [[Bomb]]s (including larger blue varieties depending on how many players participate). Boolossus may also phase through the roof's floor and move in a preset pattern, or may summon red-hot arrows to the roof's perimeter to target the players it battles. The smaller Boolossus shrinks, the faster its movement becomes and the more lightning bolts it summons, though its tongue becomes shorter and shockwaves smaller as a result.
 
As in the first game, Boolossus must be broken up into its component Boos before it can be sucked up. This is done by sucking up the bombs Boolossus expels and firing them back into its mouth with the [[Poltergust G-00]]. Once Boolossus explodes, the remaining Boos inside will fall onto the roof, able to damage players they land on but otherwise completely harmless. While these Boos are dazed, players must suck up their tongues and [[Slam]] each into the ground three times to defeat them individually. Unlike the main game's Boos, these Boos are invulnerable to the [[Dark-Light Device]] and [[Strobulb]], and once the surviving Boos wake from unconsciousness, they will fly to the far end of the roof and reassemble into a proportionally smaller Boolossus. Once all Boos on the roof are defeated, ScareScraper is completed.

Before the events of Luigi's Mansion, Boolossus was captured by Professor E. Gadd during the professor's travels around the world. E.

King Boo then ordered that all the other portrait ghosts that Professor E. Gadd caught should be freed as well. Eventually, after all the portrait ghosts were released, King Boo created a mansion, right next to E. Gadd's laboratory in Boo Woods.

In Luigi's Mansion, Boolossus, along with the other Boos (including King Boo), rests in a secret area under the Storage Room. When Luigi activates a hidden door in the Storage Room, the Boos spring out. However, when they notice E. Gadd's Poltergust 3000, a ghost-catching vacuum device, on Luigi's back, the Boos decide to run off and hide in the mansion.

Eventually, as Luigi progresses through the mansion, he makes it to the Balcony. However, if he has captured less than 20 Boos, he will be blocked in the hallway leading there by a particularly-transparent Boo, referring to itself as "the mysterious power of the Boos," which will then blow him back to the Foyer. If Luigi has captured at least 20 Boos, he can exit the mansion to the Balcony, where the Boo Radar on the Game Boy Horror starts flashing intensely, indicating a powerful Boo presence. To the left, fifteen Little Boos are circling each other. Once Luigi approaches, they taunt him, and begin to circle around him.
