Gloomy Manor is the first mansion that players will be able to explore in Luigi's Mansion 2. Since it works as the first world, it's an introduction to the rest of the game, and therefore it has some of the weakest ghosts that fans will come across.

This guide will help players find all the Boos hidden in Luigi's Mansion 2's Gloomy Manor.

About halfway through their quest in Gloomy Manor, they'll have to hunt down three orange Poltergeists playing the piano in the Library - these are some of the toughest opponents in this mansion. This guide will help games deal with the three Poltergeists on the mission A-3: Quiet Please! of Luigi's Mansion 2.

How to Find the Piano Ghost

While doing A-3: Quiet Please!, players will have to investigate the Library, as strong paranormal activity has been detected nearby and someone is interacting with the piano.

Once players reach the Library (F1), they'll come across a Poltergeist. However, they'll quickly realize, that's not the only one around - there are actually three Poltergeists in Gloomy Manor's Library.

The piano ghosts will appear and disappear, so it can be difficult to track them down at first. To find a Poltergeist after it disappears, whenever gamers see a book start to levitate, they must flash the Strobulb in its direction. However, if this is done too early, the book will cover the ghost's eye, preventing it from being stunned. However, if done too late, the ghost won't be there anymore. So, fans have to wait until the piano ghost throws the book, then dodge it and immediately hit the ghost with a flash.

To get a view of the entire Library and easily spot when a piano ghost is about to strike, stand near the books by the southern exit door.

How to Defeat the Piano Ghosts

Once gamers have learned how to stun the Poltergeists, they'll have to catch all three of them in order to complete this level. After stunning one of the piano ghosts, games need to immediately use the Poltergust 5000 to reduce its health and eventually catch it.

Each Poltergeist has a total of 50 health so they will take longer to catch compared to other ghosts in Gloomy Manor. While the Poltergust 5000 is sucking up one of the Poltergeists, the remaining ghosts will continue to throw books at the player. So, they must be careful and attempt to dodge them by changing directions or else they'll lose their grip and let the ghost go. Getting hit with a book will cause players to lose health.

If this mission is too difficult, you might want to consider grabbing one of the Gold Bones in Gloomy Manor .

After all three Poltergeists have been taken care of, they'll be brought to Professor E. Gadd's vault and the quest will be completed.
