Luigi’s mansion has been a favorite of mine ever since it’s release in 2001. As a launch title for the Gamecube, it had big expectations to live up to as a new game in the franchise. I traditionally replay this game every Halloween, yet I discovered a hidden “secret” in my most recent play through. I say “secret” because apparently this was a very well known game mechanic. I figured I’d share this knowledge incase anyone else was as clueless as I was.
There are 5 locations where there is hidden cheese throughout the mansion. Taking a picture of the cheese with your Game Boy Horror, triggers the appearance of a rare Golden Ghost mouse, which will then dash across the hallway for you to suck up in your vacuum.
This mouse dispen
ses a large amount of money, and this can help you get a higher letter ranking at the end of the game. The golden mouse appeared several times for me without taking a photo of the cheese, so I always assumed it was a randomly triggered event. This block of Swiss is located in the Study behind the desk, The Fortune Teller’s room behind the chair, the Dining room behind the chair, the Tea room behind the left table, and the Safari room behind the crates. Knowing about these cheeses is sure to make my next game Gouda! Good luck ghost hunting everyone!
