Luigi's Mansion: Luigi goes Ghostbusters

Luigi walks in a dark, spooky forest. He checks his map, which has directions to his mansion. There is a large mansion ahead, looking nothing like the one on his map. He goes through the gate and approaches the mansion as crows watch. Cautiously, he opens the door, shines his flashlight inside, and says, "Hello?"

Inside the foyer are stairs and some doors. The door on the first floor is glowing and covered in thorns. The double doors at the top of the stairs are locked. Luigi hears a laugh after trying to open them. All other doors on the second floor are locked as well. After going back downstairs, he sees a key floating in a transparent orange blob. The key falls and the blob goes through the double doors upstairs. After picking up the key, Luigi goes to the double doors on the second floor and opens the door. This leads to the parlor.

In the parlor, the orange blob reveals itself to be a ghost. Also in the room is a small old man with a vacuum strapped to his back. He tries to catch the ghost with the vacuum, but fails. The old man introduces himself as Dr. E. Gadd. He says the mansion has more ghosts everyday and would like to talk to us in his lab. Three orange ghosts appear and Luigi and Gadd make a run for it.

In the lab, E. Gadd tells Luigi that he studies ghosts. Luigi's in the area because he won a mansion in a contest he never entered. Gadd says the mansion appeared only a few days ago and that a man in a red hat went into the mansion and never returned. Luigi has to go after him because the man in the red hat doesn't stand a chance against the ghosts. Gadd will teach Luigi how to deal with the ghosts.

Luigi enters the training room wearing the vacuum, the Poltergust 3000. While in the dark, Luigi must first stun the ghost(s) with his flashlight to reveal their heart (and HP), then vacuum them up. After training is completed, Gadd takes Luigi to his gallery, saying that there were 21 paintings in his Famous Ghost Collection, but there are only frames now. He gives Luigi a communication device called the Game Boy Horror, which lets him check his inventory, his location and floor plans for the mansion, as well as check out things around the mansion. There is a gold, sparkly room in the back of the gallery, but there's nothing of interest there now. Luigi heads off to the mansion, in search of the man in the red hat, Mario.

This is my first time playing the game, so I may miss a few things. It may take a few tries to get used to the controls (intially, I only got one ghost in training). We'll see how things go.
