How to Find the Gondola Access in Luigi's Mansion 2

When you first enter the Secret Mine mansion in Luigi's Mansion 2, you will enter through the Chalet, which will be warm thanks to the warm fire in the fireplace.

But during D-3: Across the Chasm, the window at the top of the Chalet was left open, which blows out the candles in the chandelier and brings in snow, freezing the elevator under the polar bear rug. However, don't worry, here we have a guide that will help you:

How to Find the Gondola Access in Luigi's Mansion 2

Thawing the Elevator:

Access the Chalet's upper level: Utilize the fireplace to ascend to the upper area of the Chalet.

Close the window: Employ the Poltergust to close the open window, preventing cold air from entering.

Manipulate the chandelier: Use the Poltergust to turn the wheel on the pillar, raising the chandelier to ignite the other chandelier.

Melt the ice: Lower the ignited chandelier to melt the ice block obstructing the elevator. Clear any residual snow for unobstructed elevator access.

Locating the Gondola:

After descending the thawed elevator, players will find themselves in the Airway. The gondola is situated in the Terminal (B1). To reach the Terminal, navigate through the Basin, Drift Hall, and Prospector's Crossing.

Clearing Access to the Gondola:

A broken mirror obstructs the gondola's entrance. To clear the obstruction:

Utilize the Strobulb: Activate the bombs behind the mirror using the Strobulb feature of the Poltergust 5000.

Defeat the ghost chains: After breaking the mirror, three ghosts will appear and place chains on the gondola.

Locate and capture ghosts: Capture the crystalized ghosts responsible for the chains in the following locations:

Yellow chain: Basin (F1)

Red chain: Chalet (B1)

Green chain: Smuggler's Hideout (B2)

Access the gondola: Once all chains are removed, the gondola becomes accessible.

With these steps, players will be able to successfully complete the challenges and access the gondola in Luigi's Mansion 2.
