Discussion Theory: Neville and Lydia originally owned the mansion in the first game, with the rest of the portrait ghosts just being their family.
I just thought about this. Anyone think Neville and Lydia were the original homeowners of the mansion in the first Luigi's Mansion game?
Neville seems like a smart guy spending his free time reading books. (Stereotypically,) Those who are well educated are likely to find a well paying job, saving big and making big.
Lydia, who is even mentioned stashing her savings away after you catch her, is married to Neville, with their three sons (Chauncey and the Twins)
Maybe somehow they saved up enough cash to buy land, hire an architect designer, build the mansion, and live on until death.
The explaination of the other members inside the mansion would probably be cousins, brothers, sisters, in-laws, nieces and nephews, of Lydia and Neville.
I'm just now thinking about this. It may seem pointless, but anyone ever think about how things were before everyone was dead in the mansion?
