The Bowling Ghost is a type of ghost that Luigi encounters in Luigi's Mansion.
Bowling Ghosts haunt the corridors instead of the rooms, and are usually found along with Ceiling Surprises and Purple Bombers. They throw bowling balls at Luigi, trying to trip him. Even if the player wards them off with the Poltergust 3000 or an element, they eventually return. They are gone when an area is finished.
They are one of the weakest ghosts in the game as they have zero HP.
In the Hidden Mansion, four of them appear in the Telephone Room and one later appear on the Roof.
Cameos[]
A Bowling Ghost cameos in several later Mario games:
- In Mario Power Tennis, the Bowling Ghost appear in the mini-game Terror Tennis as a ball boy.
- In Mario Party 8, Bowling Ghosts cameo in a mini-game, along with a Gold Ghost.
