Polterpups are a type of ghost that appear in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon.
Appearance[]
Polterpups appear to look like white transparent dogs with large noses and stubby feet. Polterpups wear leashes, with the color being blue.
ScareScraper[]
In ScareScraper's Polterpup mode, both Polterpups and Big Polterpups appear. During Scarescraper mode, Luigi must use the Dark-Light Device to illuminate the various rooms, revealing paw-prints left by the ghosts. These paw-prints will either lead to an invisible object or a ghostly imprint of the Polterpup that went through the wall. If it leads to a doghouse, he will have to shine the Dark-Light Device at it, causing them all to flee. If it leads to an invisible object, Luigi must use the device to make it appear and then he has to shake it. After shaking it, the Polterpup will pop out and begin running around the room. Polterpups are non-confrontational, and will flee rather than fight. Luigi must use the Poltergust 5000 in order to suck him up, which will cause the dog to turn yellow. Successfully sucking up the Polterpup will reward Luigi with Gold Bars.
Up to 6 Polterpups and a minimum of 2 can appear on a single floor.
Ghost Container description[]
