The '''Telephone Room''' is a room in Area Four of [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|Luigi's Mansion]] in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''.


As Luigi approached the West Hallway on the [[Balcony]], the door was unsealed. However, a bolt of lightning struck the house, causing what every ghost-hunter hates: a blackout. Luigi used his Key to open the door, then proceeded through the West Hallway. At the end, he came across two choices, east or west. The plumber chose the east door because the other one was locked and ended up in the Telephone Room. Luigi received a phone call from one of the [[Toad (species)|Toads]] in the Mansion, informing him that the Toads had fled because of the blackout. The Toad also mentioned a breaker in the Basement that could be used to turn the power back on. Unfortunately, the previously accessible [[Breaker Room]] was now mysteriously locked. Luigi received another phone call, this time from [[Professor E. Gadd]] who told Luigi of a Portrait Ghost named [[Uncle Grimmly]] who was now on the loose. Luigi went off in search of Uncle Grimmly so that he could turn the power back on.
In the Telephone Room, Luigi receives several telephone calls, one from a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] and one from [[Professor E. Gadd]]. After Luigi captures [[Uncle Grimmly]], Luigi captures two [[Mr. Bones]] to light up the Telephone Room.


After successfully doing so, Luigi returned to the Telephone Room, only to find it was still dark. Opening some of the chests in the room, Luigi awakened two [[Skeleton Ghost]]s whom he captured, finally lighting the room.
==Description==
The Telephone Room is a rather large room. On the west wall there is a large cabinet in front of which is a small table and a small sofa. The middle of the room is empty except for a large chest on the north wall. Along the south wall there are three small rotary telephones, side-by-side. Finally, on the east wall, there is a cabinet, identical to the first, and two additional large chests. In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version, the wooden panels are more detailed, and a wooden crate and several objects can be seen on the back wall.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMil-ql3U0I</ref>


The Telephone Room is huge, quite possibly the largest room in the Mansion save the Balcony and the Courtyard. As such it is filled with quite a variety of objects. On the west wall there is a large cabinet in front of which is a small table and curiously, a small sofa. The middle of the room is empty except for a large chest on the north wall. Along the south wall there are three small rotary telephones, side-by-side. Finally, on the east wall, there is a cabinet, identical to the first, and two additional large chests.

Description[edit]

The Telephone Room is a rather large room. On the west wall there is a large cabinet in front of which is a small table and a small sofa.

Trivia[edit]

  • When Luigi answers the Toad's phone call, Toad will ask who is speaking. The player then has the option to choose either Luigi or Bowser. If he chooses Luigi, the conversation goes on as normal. However, if he chooses Bowser, Toad hangs up and calls one of the other three phones. Then, the same conversation commences, this time without the option to state the player's identity.
  • When Luigi picks up the phone during the blackout, the player can see a displaced shadow that vaguely resembles Luigi hanging from a noose, though this can technically be seen at various points throughout the game when the camera zooms in on Luigi, such as when he is talking with a Toad or with E. Gadd over the Game Boy Horror, due to the shadow's location being dependent on the camera, which normally is constantly facing the same direction. This does not return in the 3DS version,[2] likely due to the shadow system being improved, and as such no longer relying on the camera facing a specific way to render them in the correct location.
  • This is the only room during the blackout in which the ghosts must be captured in order to leave.
