Damage describes all ways to harm or to get harmed in the games of Luigi's Mansion. When a ghosts HP falls to 0, Luigi either sucks them up or burns, freeze, etc... them. Every time Luigi attacks with an element, every non-portrait ghost (excluding Boos) will take 5 points of damage. Ghosts take damage 1.5 times faster in the Hidden Mansion (not if attacking with elements). The different ghosts' HP alters from 0 to 500. Luigi's HP is 100, if it falls to 0 Luigi will spin around and collapse. Luigi loses coins when damaged, those Coins disappear faster than normal. Luigi can regenerate Health by obtaining Hearts. The HP alter Luigi's voice acting, the way he walks and which frame he gets after a Boss Fight. The damage Luigi takes is doubled in the Hidden Mansion.
