Join us in overthinking as we present: the terrifying implications of Luigi's Mansion 3 😨👻
Luigi is probably using is own soul to control Gooigi, that's why Luigi is slumping when Gooigi is summoned!
You guys make overthinking fun
About that thing you said about a cruel simulation to make the perfect ghost super soldier, maybe those Luigis are AI's being trained to be the perfect Luigi. The one that becomes the smartest and acts like Luigi the most is used to create the next batch of Luigi AIs (LuigAIs) until they have a perfect copy of Luigi. Then they can either use that AI to train other ghosts,
or E. Gadd is using the simulation to train Gooigi.
Luigi is afraid of ghosts and yet he completely destroys them... perhaps he's the one hunting the ghosts? Maybe Luigi is the true monster in this story?
Gooigi is the soul of Luigi now traped in the goo form forever, that reanimated the body of Luigi after his death in the last smash game and now can leave the body at will, but only for a limited time. That is why he looks like a vegetable when Gooigi is out ... he is out of soul then!!
Luigi faces his fears constantly and is very good at it, so it's quite possible that he's a Green Lantern (as if his uniform wasn't an obvious givaway) and Gooigi is a living, sentient construct made of his will. He becomes unresponsive because controlling it requires all his concentration.
As one person put it: Bravery is not the absence of fear, bravery is doing what you know needs done DESPITE your fear.
@@marhawkman303 Bravery can get you killed, cowards live longer. So never try to be brave Luigi, leave that to Mario (and get the Princess after he is gone :P).
@@kallasantysanty6092 But cowardice can get you shot in the back while running to safety. :p
@@marhawkman303 Yeah probably by the so called brave ones, back shoters all of them, let me be a cowerd in peace :P
Being a green lantern isn’t a bad idea. I’ll try that
I need the announcer in smash to say "Gooigi" like he says "Luigi"
Max Littlewood or a new costume for Luigi that makes him look like Gooigi
@@ceceliaacaba2739 *yes.*
No, we need him to say it like how the narrator says it in the E3 ad.
Gooigi dlc?
i read that in the announcer his voice
I was like "how angry could Luigi look?"
*close up of Luigi's face slamming a ghost into the ground*
So angry. So very, very angry. This obviously is a Luigi more closely aligned with Sniper Luigi than the happy-go-lucky Luigi.
King boo is also really pissed too, I’ve never seen a Boo legit frown other than the mildly annoyed faces they make when you look at them
isn't he just closing his eyes, because he is terrified to look at the ghost?
@@cosmicspacething3474 the crease in his brow combined with the unsettling frown on his face freaked me out lmaoo
I like to think the reason he’s angry is because he’s in this situation for the THIRD TIME so even if he is usually calm he definitely has right to be angry here.
Plus lets be real if you had saved your bro from ghosts twice then finally get a family vacation only to have to save him a third time youd be pretty pissed too
It’s Luigi’s stronk-face
Especially when Mario is a jackass to him.
Exactly
BenYourFriend How is mario a jackass to luigi?
Gooigi is Luigi's true form. His normal body is only a shell.
Yes
TheJaguar1983 thank you
Dude I found your comment under a comment that explains better
No, Mr. L is his true form.
DUN DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNN
I think Luigi projects his soul into gooigi. Most likely as a result of his experience with death.
Agreed! :D
Yep
Yep
@Bini Lover wait we weren't talking about the Simon for smash trailer?
@Bini Lover I agree I just thaught that that is what Alpha cat77 was referencing
When you control Gooigi, Luigi looks like he's remembering his childhood incident with a bowl of Jell-O.
Either that or channeling his abilities from mario and luigi dream team.
His conscience is supposed to be going into the dream world, except the paranormal energy causes it to enter gooigi instead
OMG I'm dead XD
O5 what the heck are you doing here? tryna find more SCPs? or even D-Class?
“The sort of place where a ghost in a bellboy cap will menace you with a baguette”
This is also the tag line for Disneyland Paris’ version of the Tower of Terror.
To the French the scariest aspect of this is that he will improperly use a baguette.
@@GhengisJohn, well, if he's menacing you with it, improper usage is the only outcome...your only worry is *which* usage he's got planned.
@@Alsebra Mon Dieu!
I'm Mr Gooigi, look at me! Existence is pain! I long for death!
CAAAAAAN DOOOOO!
Hey Mr Gooigi go get me those gold across these cutting lasers.
* sets thumbtacks on the floor *
Hey gooigi can you help me get ten floors off my thrill tower?
Ok heres a waterbottle
0:43
So Professor Gadd has created a homunculus in Luigi's image with ectoplasm and Lunoman Greenie coffee.
Father just got one-upped.
2:58
IGN has gone on record saying that Luigi and his gooey counterpart share a consciousness. The slumped over look Luigi has when Gooigi is in control has been described as Luigi's consciousness "swimming".
4:55
HE HAS EVERY REASON TO BE ANGRY.
6:10
Someone forgot about Mr. L.
Mr L is paper luigi and not normal luihi
I think there's a goo version of all of us out there.. everyone eventually has a showdown, one of you has to kill the other
This sounds similar to the main theme/idea behind the movie Us...
Which one won for you
I already lost... or did I?
Jus get a water gun
I found mine and won..not sure if I'm the goo version or not though
Here's my interpretations of the part of Theory 1 where it's suggested that Gooigi hijacks Luigi's brain:
It's shown that Luigi sleeps a lot, as shown in Dream Team and in the intro where he's asleep on the bus and he doesn't survive one second sitting on a bed before falling asleep and waking up to this whole mess.
Why Luigi slumps when Gooigi is in play could be either of these:
1: Gooigi is part-coffee as stated by E. Gadd. Maybe Gooigi lends his coffee side to Luigi to help him stay awake while in the Poltergust, sort of like when even smelling coffee slightly gives you a boost.
2: Luigi is trying his best to stay awake during his adventure, but takes short naps standing upright when Gooigi is deployed, likely putting trust in him to keep him safe. This could also explain why Gooigi also slumps when Luigi is active, as he saw him take upright naps and probably wanted to try that for himself.
Xenothekid why are Luigi’s eyes open when he slumps then
@@m_rytt it's possible to zonk out with your eyes open. I zonk out just like Luigi, and I woke up MANY times with dry eyes because I was too tired to close them.
Who's the most terrifying ?
1) The calm but deadly sniper Luigi
2)The raging slamming vacuum Luigi
Discuss.
3) luigi doing absolutely nothing
That's the correct answer
missingno miner It's truly terrifying. What's he planning? WHAT'S HE PLANNING?!?!?!?
@@korimckee2401 To destroy everything.
He was the one who killed the shaggy memes. And he was using his full power.
I’d say he’s transferring consciousness for the single play gooigi.
I know this is a common thing but I have never had so many likes.
yeah his soul is leaving his mortal shell temporarily.
Exactly
*That's what im saying!*
Shoot, you beat me to it
Bucket Head - Gamez And Morez! Sometimes the most boring option is often the correct answer
Gooigi is quite simple: a reactive, slightly psychic amalgamation of coffee and ectoplasm. Perhaps the new Poltergust allows Luigi to "possess" the goo, much like how ghosts possess physical objects.
As for Luigi's rage, let's look at the facts: a man who replaced his fear with fury, equipped with tech to combat the supernatural, is pretty much on his own against the horde, wears green, and has a device that shoots. Ladies and Gents, Luigi's Mansion is the origin story of Doomguy!
How do you not remember the ending of Darkmoon? The end saw you putting the dark moon fully together again and smashing the crystal in King Boo's crown if I remember correctly. Breaking the crystal ended up giving the ghosts back their free will from King Boo. So clearly King Boo isn't employing the power of mind control in this game. Maybe he's actually just paying them this time?
king boo had a gem on hos crown in both games and the gem was "power-enhancing" so he just got another one. and it was putting the moon back together that gave them their free will.
Wait but...ghosts are dead, how would pay really help them-
I don't remember the power-enhancer gem being destroyed...
Nah, the mind controlling thing you are talking about is not related to the crystal he had on its crown, but because he destroyed the moon.
@@barksanddreams2234 spoopy ghost market maybe maybe the ghosts still have unpaid debts from when they were alive
looking at the slowed-down expression of Luigi's "angry" face, i noticed his eyes are closed tight.. this leads me to believe that it's not anger, but "fright fury".. fright fury is when you're so scared, you lash out in a stint of rage, turning your want of flight into a much-needed period of fight
Luigi: More ghosts? That's it, I've had enough! One Jump Man, activate!
I for one support our new Goo overlords
Neil before your king
@@aaronjones6299 oh my...😱
You're getting on a slippery ground there, sticking your teories around like that. :)
Yes, but can you do Andy's favourite thing by pressing a button which makes Luigi say "MARIOOOO!" in a spooky voice.
For anyone who hasn't seen this it was in the second ever episode of SOTWE roughly 12 mins 40 secs in.
This has been a message from your friendly neighborhood Max Velocity.

@@sourcererseven3858 thank you, I didn't know you could link a video to a specific time stamp.
👍
I also remember Ellen bringing this up again when discussing Luigi with Luke in a later episode of SOTWE, anyone remember which one that was?
Also is there like a wiki anywhere that details the contents of each episode of SOTWE and SOTW like the synopsis on an IMDB page?
@@maxvel0city906 Using _?t=12m45s_ would also work.

That’s my secret, I’m always angry.
And scared

Edison would say “ahh an idea. I will steal it, slap a patent on it and take all the money for myself, screwing the actual inventor out of their money and any fame.”
#Nikolaforever
Nah, Edison actually did improve things. He certainly had no qualms using other people's ideas, but he was focused more on making applications that you can use than theoretical stuff. Sadly that is why Tesla lost out. He spent too much time on ideas he couldn't build.
To be fair Tesla is plenty famous despite not getting credit for inventing a bunch of stuff. The fact we know his name means he has some level of fame anyway. Though maybe not as much as he really deserves.
@@marhawkman303 the reason Tesla couldn't build them is because of the fact that multiple of his ideas were stolen by other "inventors" like Edison and didn't get the profit from said inventions and ran out of funding.
@@zoleroid7027 Some of them were just bad ideas that he couldn't build functional prototypes for. For example: hHe DID get funding to test broadcast power. It cooked any living thing that got close to the transmission tower. Also it induced electrical currents in a whole lot of things you don't want to be electrified. Did it technically work? yes, but it was wasteful and dangerous.
He would say, “It’s Tesla’s fault
Luigi can move his consciousness into a seperate already sentient being
What is it with Mario Bros. and enslaving living creatures?
“This Hotel is less the sort of place where you can expect a mint on your pillow, and more the sort of place where a ghost in a bellboy cap will menace you with a baguette.” - Luke 2019
What would Thomas Edison do if he came across a TV that a person could enter, be transformed into electricity and transported to a different area? He would claim that he invented it and sell it
And then Willy Wonka would sick the Oompa Loompas on his ass for perverting his chocolate teleporter.
@@SuperMagicUnderwear I was actually thinking about that moment when I saw the tv moment
the TV might be some kind of pixilshifter
He said he breaks the laws of physics by doing this... What was E = mc2 for then?
Luke's entropy of the soul! " Slipping though your fingers never to be regained".
This game is clearly the origin story of Sniper Luigi in Mario Rabbids. In order to face his fear Luigi learns to channel it into rage using the slam attack, but after clearing the hotel of ghosts realises how empty he now feels without that release so picks up a rifle and goes out to make more ghosts to hunt down...
E3 2019
Other developers: MORE POLYGONS, MORE POST PROCESSING, MORE PIXELS!
Nintendo: More fun!
Nintendo: Also, more creepy implications!
Luigi's probably mad because he has been living in Mario's shadow for too long,or he wants more games.
FBI OPEN UP we also want more games for him
Why do people think it’s an expression of rage is clearly just him struggling to slam the ghost
Don't worry Next Level Games say they plan to do a Luigi's Mansion franchise
Luigi's Mansion: Into The Luigi-verse
Oxtra, taking cute things and presenting them with terrifying twists... never change oxtra ;)
I used to wonder why Luke said his imagination was a bottomless pit of nightmares.... used to.
I wonder if Luke knows about all those theories for BOTW 2 Y’know about the hand holding down Ganon being the souls of the dead...
I mean this is the same guy who thinks Link is Doom Guy and wrote sappy fanfics...
5:19 I mean, if ghosts decide to lure you to a vacation and end up kidnapping your brother (for the third time), his (maybe) girlfriend, your friends/servants/bodyguards, and attempt to capture you, I think I'd be a bit irate myself, especially when I was promised a vacation! The last thing I want to do on a vacation is work. I go on vacation to get away from work! Not to mention Luigi was the one specifically targeted for the invite. He's the one carrying it in his bag. He invited everyone else and put them in harm's way. Luigi absolutely loves his brother, and the last thing he would do is knowingly put Mario in danger, whether Mario could handle it or not.
Luigi's Mansion 3: The Hotel Mario Remake
I mean... this game was done before--on the Phillips CDi.
I can't NOT imagine this as a hired assassin movie.
Mario: Go get your vac, Luigi. You've gotten another call.
Luigi: I don't do that anymore brother.
Mario: The gaming world demands it
Luigi: Not my problem.
So the ghosts are all Sniper Luigi's victims?
@@Banquet42 lol yes
Luke, please get some sleep.
We are deeply concerned.
The fact that the other characters aren’t playable. Come on Nintendo! I want to run a round a haunted hotel vacuuming up ghosts as my favorite pearly pink princess(I am completely okay with having to unlock her by saving her)!
Remember how Luigi started out as a green clone of mario?
What if the process is restarting
What if gooigi is growing from Luigi like Luigi grew from Mario
What if he ends up being a third brother one day
Just a thought
im just jealous the mario gang can afford holidays abroad whilst I'm stuck here.
Damm Brexit.
Hi, I'm also from Britain.
Good news! For the low price of applying for a citizenship in a EU country of your choice you will have access to the unlimited potential of the Schengen-Area! No more waiting in Dover for the single Border-Policeman to mess up and give your papers to the next car in line, no more waiting for a ferry that has to let ten other ferrys through first, no more getting stuck in traffic because you landed in Calais just before rush hour!
Apply now before it's too late! (Though, at the rate it's going I think you'll have a few more years, give or take a decade.)
Ah yes, Luigi, his ectoplasmic counterpart Gooigi, seven other Luigis from universes, dimensions, and/or timelines unknown, THEIR goo counterparts... All of whom you just know are going to make it into Smash as playable characters before Waluigi does.
Gooigi Theory: The goo is only semi-intelligent. Luigi seizes control by worging into it like Bran Stark.
gooigi lore is on luigi mansion 3ds site
Detroit: Become Goo
You have lay as 3 goo beings fighting for their freedom.
luigi: exists
ghosts: i'm about to start this mans whole career
Luigi im about to suck this ghost
Maybe I'm alone in thinking this, but I think a format like this game would be a good style for Gex.
7. Definitely the Ghost Super Soldier is the answer
#6 is wrong. Luigi isn’t fooled by the schemes. He knows it’s a trap but he loves the thrill of the kill and the only way that he can cope with his violent tendencies is the justify it by putting himself in a situation where he has to save his friends. But at the end of the Luigi’s mansion series he lets go of the act and embraces his inner killer therefore becoming... Sniper Luigi
And that’s my origin story
4:12 You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.
Terrifying implication #8: Hauntings Are Franchises Now.
FINALLY.
Someone who remembers Super Princess Peach exists.
Thank you resident Peach Expert Luke.
SUPER PRINCESS PEACH REMEMBERED IN 2019 YAS
I mean... people do remember it. They just usually avoid talking about its existence...
The television portals remind me of Dark Moon's E-Gates
I have a theory,
When Gooigi is active on singleplayer, the mind of Luigi is sucked out of his body and into the mind of Gooigi
Luigi's Mansion 3: The Evil Within
I think we're missing the most terrifying implication of all: Sniper Gooigi...
#2: Oh yeah, this game takes place in a hotel. Does this technically make it the sequel to CD-i's 'Hotel Mario'?
3:33 WHAT? How dare you, Lucas! It's 'Stephen King's "The Shining"'. Stanley Kubrick just borrowed it for a bit and pissed off its creator. Andy, back me up on this!
Brent Dreher to be fair, both of them are different yet the same. And some people prefer the movie rather than the book
Luigi just goes to sleep he’s like “alright Gooigi you do all the work while I sleep and maybe even die”
I just noticed that the organ track in the background sounds a lot like "Mr. Crowley" by Ozzy.
So it should be possible to go Sniper Gooigi then?
Yes
Really
Nothing will be more terrifying than luigi and gooigi doing absolutely nothing together.
Space time might just collapse on itself, and the most terrifying thing is luigi and gooigi wont care
Hey look they’ve turned Luke into Luigi!
....or did they turn Luigi into Luke?
....and when will Andy get a cowboy hat!!!!
Maybe Luke and Luigi are the same person? Quick, what do we know about Luke's family
Luigi has been around much longer than Luke. Poor Luke never stood a chance.
Luke did seem quite comfortable in his 'Sniper Luigi' fancy dress that one time....
Ahhh.... The perks of self-set state of disbelief and ask the question: "What if it WAS real?"
What? What do you mean I'm feeding my insanity by trying to apply reality into fantasy?
You know what? STATE OF DISBELIEF ON! You are now not real. *Takes a sip of coffee*
10:31
*Luigi: Into The Luigi-verse*
I'm surprised that one on the seven implications wasn't that there might also be a Goo-ario.
In fact, a whole goo gang. WaGoo-uigi anyone? 🤣
You, sir, frighten me
@@sniperluigi8507 go back to sniping rabbids then.
The most terrifying part of the slam is that if you notice, Luigi doesn’t suck up the ghosts defeated by the slam, that would be to clean. No when ghosts are defeated by the slam they explode into a violent burst of ectoplasm possibly removing them from existence as there astral form is destroyed. No heaven, no hell, just complete and utter non existence for all eternity.

*Shows third one*
I Lve The Videos You Guys Are Awsome And Funny To Watch.
7:45 Glad to see that the "Peach is a Ruthless Dictator" shtick is still a thing, wouldn't want anyone to forget, especially after the Mario Party incidents
I'm thinking also a necromancer at this point, since someone revived Luigi after that unfortunate... incident...
Ah yes, I haven't heard #KeepPeachPoor in a while.
@@maxvel0city906 I blame the lack of Mario Party and Smash.
The most depressing thing I've seen about this game it Luigi's face when he dies. He just collapses with a mixture of fear and sadness on his face; he's dying while knowing full well that his brother is still trapped and probably will be forever, and Professor E. Gadd and all the people he managed to rescue are stuck in the basement, wondering why they can't reach him and trying over and over again before, eventually, the power runs out and they are captured by the remaining ghosts. Then the last bit of hope vanishes from their hearts when they are brought before King Boo and are presented with Luigi's corpse, not even having enough time to mourn him before being trapped inside paintings again for the rest of their days. Given that the paintings don't move they probably can't age either and thus have to live with the guilt of leading Luigi to his death until the end of time.
Meanwhile Polterpup is waiting for a soul that won't return, forever tormented by the knowledge that he let everyone down and by the ghosts that want to avenge their destroyed brethren.
Am I the only person that wants Luigi and Mario back together in the Main games?? Why have 4 Luigi’s when you could literally have Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Daisy or toad or etc, kicking Boo and taking graves TOGETHER?!
I'm hoping other characters might be unlockable. First of all because I always like playing as Peach, but secondly because that's pretty typical for any game where more than one of the heroic main characters is captured.
The only exception I can think of is Super Princess Peach. In that one Peach rescues Luigi, but then continues on to rescue Mario without his help. Unfortunately having three unnamed Toads in there doesn't help... rescuing Toads doesn't generally unlock them.
Gooigi for smash
I think the whole game is Luigi's dream. He's asleep at the start, he falls asleep at the end. Also, over the end credits we see everyone leave, but Gooigi is next to Egad, waving?
I’d imagine Luigi and Co. assumed the invitation was a congratulations for their previous journey, Mario Odyssey. Luigi decided to tag along because if something goes down he doesn’t want to be left responsible
Luigi's mansion + Sniper Luigi = Luke's next theory video?
I ❤ this channel and outsidexbox!
Regarding #6: Maybe Luigi knows exactly what awaits him and secretly enjoys the thrill of hunting ghosts.
I think Gooigi is sentient, but can’t feel pain, it knows when it takes damage, but doesn’t react in the same way normal living things would to pain.
Sees #3
Gasp* matpat's Mr. L theory was right
is it just me or is lukes voice really quiet
edit: needed to turn youtube volume up thankyou for your consideration
Lol
"The kind of hotel where a ghost in a bellboy cap menaces you with a baguette" We've all been there, before.
Thomas Edison would shout "That's mine! I invented it alright! Sure thing! ME!" and then point in turn at every individual in the room saying "patent pending" each time. If challenged over inventing it, he'd no doubt begin an ugly smear campaign against the inventor while constantly reminding us that _HE'S_ THOMAS EDISON.
Luigi’s mansion is one of my favourite series is dark moon was just a bit better it would be my favourite
Dear God, whatever you do don’t make a Gooigi-Mike, the world cannot handle that amount of sheer chaos
Couldn't even get through the 2nd point without subscribing. The writing and delivery in this video is phenomenal.
The first Luigi's mansion ends in him receiving a mansion for a night shift. That's not stupidity, that's an opportunity.
5:27 To be fair to Luigi, this WILL be his third time facing King Boo and he escaped his prison twice before.
THEORY (for single player): Luigi is dead, and being controlled by Gooigi. The goo has left a part of itsself in Luigi's brain, which it can use to control his actions at any time. And the cylinder on Luigi's pack is just a place for Gooigi to stay while the puppet body of Luigi lugs it around.
Scarescraper Livestream with the entire crew? Pretty please? This game sounds absolute fun.
Luigi isn’t angry when using the slam. He’s straining. Swinging with all his might. If that were me, yeah. I’d definitely make that face.
I think Gooigi is more of a ghost mixed with Luigi, because in the notes it says that Egadd got the "goo" from ghosts. Then when he spills his coffee into it, it reacts and creates the new element "goo". Also the fact that Egadd literally injected biological data of Luigi into it to make it be able to use the Poltergust means it can do human actions. Then Egadd teaches Gooigi to use the Poltergust. So Gooigi is the energy of ghosts in Evershade valley mixed with coffee and Biological data of Luigi, there isn't a reason Gooigi shouldn't be sentient!
I can't wait to watch a playthrough of this. Games like this don't appeal to me for playing, but they do for watching.
Side note, I am going to try and meet Charles Martinet this December.
About 9:26, Luigi is suspicious of the 'staff' though. Whenever he walks near them he looks unnerved, he knows something is off about them.
I expect Goollen and Goouke doing the next show of the weekend soon (with help from Goondy and Gooike, maybe even Gooane if she make of one herself (yep we all know who will make Gooteam a reality) :P).
This is why,Luigi should NEVER get a free house from a contest he didn't even enter,or a mysterious invitation from some weird place.
He: gooigis in charge
Them: Luigi is in charge
Me: chuckles in E. Gadd
I love the way you write Luke. Excellently done sir.
Looking at the expressiveness and models of Luigi and co, the Mario movie should be a claymation. They give off a little Aardman (Wallace and Gromit for those who don’t know) vibe. I love it!
I hold to the theory that Gooigi is a venom-like parasite that is psychically linked to Luigi, and the pair are fighting for control. Luigi isn't really scared of ghosts, they just distract him enough that Gooigi gains some ground. It explains why he wears green all the time... it's Gooigi's influence.
Actually, I got some clarifications on a few of them. For theory 3, I think it’s because Luigi’s so sick of this happening again. Keep in mind that the reason they came here in the first place was to RELAX in a hotel they were invited to. It was supposed to be a good holiday for him, his brother, Peach and the other Toads but no, the ghosts have to ruin everything for them. That’s why Luigi’s so mad at them when he slams them into the ground, he just wants one day where everything can be peaceful. No adventures, no ghosts, just relaxation and yet these guys ruined it and so he takes his anger out on them. Or it could be that he’s struggling to slam them but that’s a big stretch.
As for theory 4, it could be because they’re all inexperienced with this sort of thing. I mean, they’ve all been trapped in paintings and would probably be confused. Not to mention that Luigi got the most experience out of all of them when it comes to this job and they might slow him down or worse get captured again. Considering how Peach is an expert of getting kidnaped, the Toads being quite honestly useless and how King Boo would most likely be keeping Mario, the strongest out of all of the gang captured to himself, it’s the best plan to just let them sit back and wait until it’s all over.
For theory 5, yes the ghosts are getting even more stronger that’s a true fact but it’s not just that they’re getting stronger. No, even more terrifying, they’re getting SMARTER. These set of ghosts use weapons, new tricks and the boss ghosts make all the previous ghosts look nothing but a pile of goo compared to them. King Boo certainly had time to learn of it and consider this. In the trailer or screenshot of what Nintendo gave us, the chase sequence we saw at the E3 trailer had Luigi only with his flashlight, not his trusty poltergust G-00. Then we get a screenshot of King Boo holding an empty painting almost to capture Luigi but as we know he ultimately failed. King Boo outright ATTACKS Luigi at his most vulnerable time unlike the previous games where he would just wait and float about capturing Mario. It’s possible that whatever E. Gadd did possibly drained King Boo’s powers which is why he improvised by putting a bounty on Luigi’s head as evident of the posters littered in the hotel about capturing Luigi for a whole stack of coins. Of course some ghosts like Morty wouldn’t care but for other ghosts, especially the boss ghosts who have the buttons Luigi needs, you bet they want that cash. That’s what’s the most terrifying to me about these ghosts, they’re not brainless and brute forcing everything now, they’ve grown smarter and the fact how King Boo placed a bounty on Luigi to get most of the ghosts to cooperate both makes sense, and is a terrifyingly smart move for someone like him.
As for theory 6, yeah I kinda question Luigi’s intelligence too however it could be cuz of Nintendo logic. To us it’s clear that there’s something wrong but if we were to be in their shoes, it would seem normal. It could also be that in the invitation it says that the hotel just recently opened and they wanted them to be the first guests to this said hotel. This is actually terrifyingly smart as if you get these guys, the 2 heroes of the land and the monarch of the entire country to come to your hotel, that would spark attraction and draw other customers in. So it would make sense for them to make that move and to others it would seem like a simple yet effective marketing strategy. This further enforced the theory that the ghosts are getting smarter and we’re really lucky that E. Gadd’s still keeping tabs with them. If not then Luigi would’ve never escaped.

'Helpless ghost.'
Hey Outside Xtra, can we backpedal to that part about how there's ghosts here that threaten Luigi with bread? If you can weaponize BREAD I can assure you that these folks are not as 'helpless' as you seem to say. -And might I remind you who's forcing Luigi to go on a collect-a-thon for literal buttons from an elevator? E. Gadd mostly, BUT ALSO THE GHOSTS!
Gooigi: "IM MISTER GOOIGI LOOK AT ME!" Luigi: go through those spikes
