"So, Mario," Luigi asked as he and Mario walked into Fantasyland, "We're finally going to get on some rides. What should we to do first? I heard Mickey's PhilharMagic is pretty good..."
"Nope." Mario replied, "I know the perfect ride we should go on first... You're not still afraid of ghosts, are you?"
"Um... Why?"
Mario didn't reply. Instead, he ran on ahead of Luigi into Liberty Square. Luigi tried to catch up with Mario, not wanting to get separated. When he finally did, he glanced up, and noticed the giant gothic mansion right in front of him.
"Uh, Mario? What's-a that?"
"The Haunted Mansion." Mario replied.
Luigi stood there for a second before running off somewhere. A minute later, he was back with the Poltergeist 3000 in hand.
"Luigi," Mario mumbled, "This is Disney. The ghosts inside the Haunted Mansion are fake..."
"I'm not taking any chances." Luigi shouted back, locking and loading his vacuum cleaner.
"Welcome, foolish mortals, to the Haunted Mansion..."
Luigi nervously looked around, expecting a ghost to come out of everything in the opening room. If Mario didn't pull him along, chances are he would've spent a lifetime in there... pun intended.
Walking into the gallery (aka: the "Stretching Room"), Luigi was still on edge, and the door disappearing behind him didn't help at all.
"Ack!" Luigi screamed, "It's a trap! We're all gonna die!"
"Luigi!" Mario shouted, not sure whether to be rolling on the floor laughing or wringing Luigi's neck, "It's Disney! You're going to be alright! Geez..."
Right as Mario finished yelling, the hanging corpse suddenly appeared above the audience, complete with a scream sound effect. This, obviously, caused Luigi to totally lose it. Luckily, another door appeared on the other side of the Stretching Room, finally giving Luigi a chance to run somewhere other than around in circles.
Things went smoothly for about twenty seconds, until Mario and Luigi got in the Doom Buggy.
"Do not attempt to lower the safety bar. I will do it for you." The Ghost Host muttered as the safety bar lowered automatically, but that wasn't what Luigi thought, naturally.
"HA!" Luigi laughed as he turned his Poltergeist 3000 on and pointed forward, "Caught ya red handed, you stupid ghost! Now you're gonna get it!"
Mario only replied with a low chuckle as Luigi only managed to suck up a whole lot of nothing and wondered what it would be like to take him on the Tower of Terror.
The rest of the ride was a total nightmare for Luigi, and was absolutely hilarious for Mario. Luigi tired to vacuum everything up, from Madame Leota to the bride in the attic, and Mario just laughed at how all of Luigi's attempts were unsuccessful. Luigi unknowingly got back at Mario, however, at the hitchhiking ghosts sequence. Luigi took one look at the mirror showing the ghost and began to panic.
"Yikes!" Luigi stuttered, "T-There's a g-ghost right between us! Don't worry, Mario! I'll save you!"
Luigi pointed the Poltergeist 3000 at the "ghost" and turned it on. Since there really wasn't a ghost there, the only thing Luigi managed to suck up was Mario's face! It took until the end of the ride before Mario managed to pull it off! As they walked off the ride, Mario tried to keep his sense of humor despite the fact that his face was entirely numb.
"See, Luigi?" Mario explained, "You tried to capture every ghost on that ride and you didn't get a single one. What do you think that means?"
"I know what it means!" Luigi replied, "It means I got to remember to stun them with a flashlight first!"
