'''Boolossus, | |||
'''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. | |||

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. | 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]].

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. | ||
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. | During the battle, Boolossus attempts to slam into Luigi.

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. | After capturing Boolossus, Luigi acquires the key to the West Wing of the mansion.

Boolossus | 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. | |||

Although Boolossus does not appear in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'', a [[Big Boo]] comprised of ten regular Boos appears as a boss in the final mansion of the game, [[Treacherous Mansion]], in the mission [[Ambush Maneuver]]. It is similarly fought by splitting it back up into its individual Boos, then capturing them separately. Additionally, in the Japanese version, it shares its name, '''Jumbo Teresa''' (ジャンボテレサ), with that of Boolossus.<ref>しゅーや (June 8, 2013).
