What happens when Luigi’s Mansion meets Universal’s Classic Monsters?
Luigi’s Dark Universe is a student-driven fan film from Full Sail University, where Luigi faces a gothic nightmare filled with monster mashups of the Mushroom Kingdom’s greatest villains.
Trapped in Bowser’s haunted castle, Luigi must battle Vampire Goombas, Franken-Thwomps, and the terrifying KoopaWolf to save Mario and uncover the dark power behind Bowser’s Monster Mash.
Created by students, course directors, and staff at Full Sail University in Studio V1, this virtual production short film blends cinematic horror, game-inspired visuals, and atmospheric storytelling in a new take on Nintendo’s haunted world. Happy Halloween!
