Guide Luigi through the Projection Room 1F (2) in Luigi's Mansion. Learn how to defeat 9 invisible Purple Grabbers and find Mario's glove.

Alright, so you've made it to Projection Room 1F (2). This place is a bit of a battle arena, so get ready! Before we dive into the main event, there's a little bit of loot to snag. Check the cupboard on the right side of the room and give those lamps hanging from the ceiling a good vacuum – you might find some extra cash in there.

Now, head over to the projector. Give it a press with the A button. You'll see a white screen light up. This is where things get interesting. The ghosts in this room are invisible, but don't worry, you can see their shadows on the screen. Keep an eye out for a small dust cloud that appears where they materialize. These guys are all Purple Grabbers, and they're pretty sneaky, so this fight can be tough.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Where: Projection Room 1F (2).
  2. 2
    What: You'll see a projector and a white screen. Invisible ghosts will appear as shadows on the screen, marked by dust clouds.
  3. 3
    What to do: Approach the projector and press A. Stay focused on the screen. The first three Purple Grabbers will attack. Watch their shadows carefully. If you feel overwhelmed, spin around a lot to keep them at bay.
  4. 4
    Why this way: Taking your time and observing their movements is key to surviving the initial wave.
  5. 5
    What: Once the first three are defeated, six more Purple Grabbers will appear. This is the tougher part.
  6. 6
    What to do: A safe strategy is to move to a corner and face the wall. Listen and watch for the dust clouds indicating a Purple Grabber is nearby. When one is close, quickly turn around and try to stun it with your vacuum. If you feel another one is about to grab you, release the one you're currently trying to capture.
  7. 7
    Why this way: This corner strategy helps you manage the crowd and avoid getting surrounded. It takes patience, but it's a reliable way to clear the room without taking too much damage.

Tips
  • The Purple Grabbers are sneaky, so don't get too close too fast. Use the environment to your advantage.
  • Spinning around can help you dodge attacks and keep multiple ghosts in your sights.
  • Patience is your best friend here. Rushing the fight will likely get you caught.
  • Once you have Mario's glove, you'll need to head back to the Foyer and then make your way to the Twin's Room to find the last of Mario's Dropped Items.
