Again, these first three chapters are a bit short. Things start getting funky at chapter 4 and 5.
All characters belong to Nintendo.

As Luigi stepped inside to the Foyer, he surveyed his surroundings. Think goodness he brought his flashlight, as every light in the room was turned off and there wasn't a light switch in sight. Luigi took notice of the big door engraved with a heart in front of him, and also the fact it was incased in electric-like thorns. There were two large, curved staircases that were on the left and right of the room. There were also some candles which provided some dim light, but not enough to see. The floor had a nice tile layout, looking somewhat of a target or a circular pattern. The last thing Luigi noticed on the bottom floor was a small corner drawer/table with a lamp on top. Knowing full well that touching a door with thorns and electric current probably wasn't going to work out too well; he headed up the left staircase.
Up top, there wasn't too much, aside from two tables with some rather dusty vases on them. There was a door in the wall all the way to the left and another large double door in front of him. Luigi was feeling very uneasy, as he believed Mario should have at least been here by now. Wondering that perhaps he was in the large-double-door-room, the green man attempted to turn the knob, but alas it was locked. Suddenly a loud giggle of some sort echoed through the Foyer. Stunned, Luigi flashed his flashlight all about the room frantically. Shadows danced from the rays of light emitting from his torch and nothing had moved from his last look-around the room. Seeing that fact, Luigi took a deep breath to calm himself down.
Luigi tiptoed over to the other door on his left, locked as well, and stumbled back to his original spot in front of the large double door. He then turned around a sighed. He gripped the railing and looked down to the first floor and realized how nice of a view it was despite the cobwebs and dust. He then remembered everything here was his, lifting his spirits a bit. He then felt more optimistic about the mansion than he had before. He thought now that maybe Mario just didn't make it here yet, so he would intercept him outside. Luigi walked down the right staircase and was about to touch the golden doorknob leading to the world when he felt an odd sensation. He was no longer alone in this room.
Turning around, he saw an orange entity. Luigi froze right where he was at the blurred object floating right next to his nose. An eerie feeling of coldness encompassed Luigi's slim frame. The orange ball dropped what seemed to be something gold and then started flying around the Foyer. It went straight through the banister and blowing right on by those dusty vases, and it vanished into the large double door. Luigi just stood there, stunned by the fact that could have just been a ghost. Everyone back home knew Luigi was absolutely terrified of poltergeists and would probably run to the other side of the world to get away from one. The chilling feeling finally left Luigi's body after a few seconds and he breathed a sigh of relief. A sigh of relief towards the fact he wasn't killed by that orange thing.
The plumber stumbled over to the shining object the orb dropped earlier and saw it was a key. Putting two and two together, Luigi guessed it was for the double door upstairs. Summoning the courage that he had, He picked up the key and cautiously made his way back up to the second story. He looked at the doorknob with fright and felt like he was going to be poisoned upon sticking the key in the lock. He closed his eyes. Clamped his mouth shut, started shaking and began jabbing the key into random spots around the hole in hopes it would go in. Twenty attempts later, it finally went in and Luigi opened his eyes. Still shaking in fright, he began ever so slowly to turn the rusty piece of metal. Hearing the tumblers move and the lock click, he brought the key into his back pocket, gently nudging his old house key. His hand crept onto the door knob just as slowly as it took him to unlock the door. The door at this point could have broken down from Luigi's intense shaking, but the mansion was really well built and could easily stand up to a simple quaking. Little to Luigi's knowledge, his tremors had caused the doorknob to turn entirely. Realizing he had no chance to turn back, he opened the door and stepped inside.
