The Haunted Catacombs is a room of the Treacherous Mansion in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon.
Description[]
The room is a series of linear square shaped corridors that extend towards the foreground. This room in itself is a puzzle, as there are several pathways between the corridors, however only some are correct paths. If the player walks through an archway either on the left or right side that happens to be an incorrect path, they will be teleported to the starting corridor with the chair they used to enter the catacombs. This area is split into two sections; two doors on the east leads to both the Underground Lab and the Cliffside. In the first section, the player can use the Dark-Light Device to track Polterpup's tracks to get to the correct route. Once the player exits the Underground Lab via the east door, they will be in the second section. This part contains knights that are tied to the walls by vines, but if the player interacts with them, they will point which path is the right way. In the room down under from the start of the second section is the door that leads to the Dungeon Cells, where the end of the mission unrolls.
First section strategy:
(From the throne to the Underground Lab) Down - Down - Right - Right - Up - Up - Right - Down - Right
(From the throne to the Cliffside) Down - Down - Right - Right - Up - Up - Right - Down - Down
Second section strategy:
(From the Underground Lab to the Dungeon Cells) Right - Down - Left
It's to note that the incorrect paths only lie on the left and right archways. The archways north and south of the player that they use to travel up and down the room do not contain incorrect variants.
Dark Moon Quest[]
Luigi enters the Haunted Catacombs during "Front-Door Key", in search for the Polterpup. After Luigi collects the Front Door Key from the Polterpup, the Haunted Catacombs, along with the rest of the Bottom of Well are rendered inaccessible during his quest at the Treacherous Mansion, but he can return to all these locations during "Terrifying Invasion".
Trivia[]
- This room and its gimmick, is likely addressed in Luigi's Mansion 3's Twisted Suites. When searching for the boss ghost, the floor becomes arranged into a maze with the topology of the rooms becoming inconsistent. The player has to open the correct doors to find the room housing the boss, but if the player enters an incorrect door, ghosts will spawn in the room and the player cannot exit until they have been defeated.
- This is the second location, where player cannot use the Dual Scream map inside this room outside of the Paranormal Dimension locations, with the first being the Frozen Pit at the Secret Mine.
