yeah, in bulbapedia it says that it could be a sprite made from gastly&/or haunter.
1 thing: at this rate, pixelphobia will appear :s |
I was also playing it at night and I was pretty scared and had nightmares for like 3 days lol :p
|
I've actually seen the butler more often. I saw him about four or five times (EV training) before I saw the girl. A bit startling at first, but not all that creepy.
|
The little girl is a ghost and kind of like the old man you sometimes see in the kitchen. Thats why on the map it mentions the word "abandoned by it's owner". Also at night time go to the tv and a pokemon comes out after pressing yes (I forgot the pokemon's name
|
If only the little girl's ghost stayed there, and then talk to her? Then it would be, like, CRASH. But, when I talked to the Solaceon Day-Care Pokemon behind the fence, it didn't crash, so? :O
|
It used to startle me, but now that's my No. 1 Sp. Atk EV training spot, so I'm there 60% of the time that I'm training.
|
I think it's just something interesting in the game. I wouldn't say it scared me, but it was sort of creepy.
|
kinda freaky if u ask me. they just pop outta nowhere and dissapear. that girl is creepy....but i love dark pokemon
|
That place is freaky. Lots of cool stuff in there, like Rotom.

the whole little girl and butler thing, i've seen the little girl and its not scary
|
The scare factor comes from trying to find her. < _<
She isn't anywhere in the building, yet she will sometimes appear in the room next to the one with the picture with glowing eyes. |
WAAAH I just saw the girl lol. When I saw her I couldn't help but shiver(I was using my earpiece, and with that creepy music? WTF!).
|
or you could use my theory.
that new galactic scientist lived in the old chateau right? he made machines for a rotom he befriended you find rotom and the machines in the old chateau the galactic scientist had a sister and a butler who died in a fire or something thats my theory |
I'm pretty sure thats its just a fun little Easter Egg that Game Freak thought up for the fun of it. There may have been an event at some point, but I think that the fact that you freeze in place proves that its not a glitch, but an intended thing.
|
I saw this a while ago. I play horror games often, so this didn't do anything for me. Good training place though.
|
Creppy but no scary/nighmare worthy
|
That's weird, I never saw either of them...I guess I came at the wrong time of day.
|
It's kind creepy the first time you see the ghosts. Regarding all the ideas, there is one piece of info about the Chateau that we get from Platinum:
Spoiler:
|
Ooo, I always thought it was the rotom because she always vanished when I caught rotom... ALWAYS
|
How do little game sprites scare people yea i think they are little weird but creepy or scary
|
Quote:
I mean... it could be a friendly ghost. |
Lol it aint scary. Looks like normal people that glide.
|
There's an old man too but I have never seen him yet. But I did see the girl already:> Why should you be scared? They're just little pixels xD.
|
I never knew about any of the ghosts in the Old Chateau until my friend pointed it out. XDD
She told me about the little girl.. I saw the girl in her game and realized it was a ghost because it's legs don't move.. it's just floating out of the room. There is also a room with a poster that has eyes.. but when you look in the direction of the poster the eyes disappear. ^_^; |
it is a videogame easter egg placed there for our amusement
|
It's kinda obvious. The girl's parents died so she had to live with her grandfather (the other "ghost"). Rotom killed them.
|
not really that obvious and pluto befriended rotom yet did not die. note: he befriended rotom when he was a child.
|
I ran into the girl once...
the thought just... *shutters* I just don't remeber where... i just go for the ghosts so ya the butler i don't know where he is going but the girl just floats and goes into the wall... eerie.......... |
Her ass got murdered in that room were you see her and know she protects th old chateu!
|
When i aw the girl first i was like: "Hmmmm. What is she doing there?"
Then i went downstairs and saw the old guy floating and i was o_0 |
I have seen her, but I have always wondered, and I'm sure many others have, what exactly is the point of her and the butler? I think nintendo just put her in there for a and I quote "A scare" xD
|
I honestly didn't think much of it. I just said, "Oh. A ghost." and returned to trying to catch a nicely-leveled Ghastly. I found it to be pretty amusing, though. It's cool that they added that into the game. :3
|
I've never seen them...
Then again since I caught Rotom I never again went in the Old Chateau. I'm creeped out by that place. |
Lmfao. I totally freaked out when I saw those at first. I was like "OMG, wtf"
|
I think thats really scary !! I mean for a game aged 3+ GameFreak/Nintendo shouldn't be adding scary stuff :o
|
I saw the little girl the first time I went in. I thought she was just another person I could talk to or battle, but when I went to look for her I couldn't find her.
I asked my friends if they had seen the little girl in their game, they didn't. Creepy. I haven't seen the old man yet, but I haven't been back to the Old Chateau either... I'm a chicken. |
Who is that girl? I've seen her, and so has my friend, but I've never seen the butler before...
And Nintendo forces us to visit the place at night. Stupid. |
Well what better time to visit a haunted house than in the dead of night?
|
they are so freaky ghosts I wounder if there is more ? I hope they will explain more about them in platinum
Quote:
|
Now honestly.. i didnt think i would be scared from the chateau but i saw the butlet and he FREAKIN' FREAKS ME OUT when i see him.. the girl is less scary as shes not scary at all
Quote:
i heard a gengar cry in that place while going where the old man was.. then suddenly the electricity in my room went off.. i was freaked like HELL.. |
My friend freaked out and told me about it one day, but I didn't believe him.
What do they look like? |
Nintendo,LOVE to add easter eggs in theyre games. the old man is a Easter Egg as well as her.sometimes,Nintendo's easter eggs were parts of the game which they forgot to remove or couldnt...I mean,Look on the truck at Pokemon Red/FireRed.Wasnt supposed to find it,is what Nintendo said.so they could get RID of it,so they dumped it there.
|
Quote:
The little girl's sprite is simply one of the twins. Brown hair, orange dress and I think a red bow? I haven't seen her for a long time, so I might not be accurate. DxD The butler simply has a gentlemen srpite. Uh, grayish hair...suit...uh, yeah... |
Quote:
|
Ahhh creepy ~.~ i got so creeped out. If you look at the statues outside the middle door, then you can see the man and he little girl, Also, Just a side note, but you can catch rotom by pressing a on a tv, but sometimes it doesnt work, and its best if u do it at night. ^.^ But if you dont have the time to do it at night, Just set your ds time to about 7 or 8 pm.
|
When i saw the ghosts, (after finishing catching ROTOM) I NEVER EVER WER+NT BACK THERE EVER AGAIN...
It gave me scary thoughts... |
Ok now ya'll have me curious. I'm going to have to check this out.
|
While playing Platinum, I've discovered two things about the Chateau:
Spoiler:
|
Wow, you're that far in Platinum? I had it for 5 days and I'm not that far!
Also, there's something else. You can see them during the daytime, even though the chance is lower. |
IT's a ghost!! :badsmile:
|
creepy for me..ghost...creeps again*
|
They remind me of that frontier brain duo.
|
I only saw the butler ghost in the dining room. Haven't seen the little girl.
|
I have not even encountered this in Platinum.
|
Quote:
|
i've seen her and i was freaked out!!!!! but thts probaly only cuz i was playing it in the dark at 11.30 at night
|
It seriously creeped me out the 1st time I saw the both of them, with the music and the timing. I was never expecting that in pokemon
|
I just tried this last night somewhere around 12-1am. Even though I saw it coming, I couldn't help but feel a little freaked out. I wonder what the true story behind the ghosts is.
|
when i first went in i went all the way to the back and saw the old man. i went to go look for him and i couldnt find him so i got freaked and continued to look but i couldnt find him still. i would like to know the true story behind the ghosts
|
Yesterday, I was reading this thread and I decided to find the old man and the little girl.
SO earlier today,I reset the time to 12am and went to find them... I got a little freaked out when I saw them XD After seeing the little girl, I quickly left the old chateau.( I didn't want to go in ever againXD) Btw,you can find the old man in the dining room and the little girl is in the last room on the right (I'm not sure wether you can see her there) but I saw her when I was in the fourth room on the right.( she was in the last room) |
How can i get to this place?
=) |
Quote:
|
It is just a easter egg in the game that makes it more fun and interesting to play! I feel sorry for the ghost girl though! Dieing at such a young age! |
you think this is scary? at least you have ghosts to accompany you, in the Distortion world its only you, Cynthia, Cyrus and Girantina, and the buttons and physics that works throughout the game suddenly changes. Plus certain platforms and trees disappear out of the blue. Now thats creepy :P
|
Its, well, just creepy, is a sort of, way, well, how would you feel if you were your charater? Hypathedicly...............
Quote:
|
I don't think i'm scary, infact, the Adventurers are the ones who scare me, searching my old home
|
I say sprite tomb is behind it! He was banesihed for eviel deeds right? Maby he killed the gohst family!!!
|
Quote:
They took it out. Perhaps it was scaring little children? :O NOTE: This is misinformation. The [two] ghosts can still be seen in the Old Chaeteu in Platinum. |
Quote:
|
i see just the girl.when i saw the girl i started to run to the exit.i dont think that im going back there.
(and sorry if you dont understand what i say.im from canada and i talk french) |
Even though they really don't do anything, they still give me chills. :[

|
again ;my theroy ignord.
crap u are u djeath? |
At first I taught my ds is broke or haunted :D but they creep me out. But it's only a game so no need to scared of.

The TRUTH about "Ghost Girl" From Old Cheateu
Alot are asking what up with her?
well you can meet her in the new season "Battle damantion" Episode - Ghoul Daze This is the only info you can find about her. she trys to take poeple into the spirit world. Mybe there something in P/D/Pt that has to do with the episode who knows? ill try to find out and if i do ill post :) there a place called "the spirit world" |
I saw that episode like yesterday
|
The story behind the Old Cheateu is different in the games than it is in the anime, and yes, there is
a story behind the Old Cheateu in the Japanese Pokmon DS series (and ONLY in the Japanese games). In fact, the story is rather grim. |
Quote:
They're ALWAYS doing that to us. Why can't they just leave things the way the creater(s) intended. x_X |
Theres A Man Aswell Isnt There
Then After You See Both The Rotom Apears Thats What I Was Told I Love Rotom |
Quote:
Erm.. Rotom appears after the national dex in Diamond and Pearl, or before it in Platinum. -shatters the moment- Anyway, she's weird. So is that butler dude that floats along. Has anyone noticed the eerie resemblance of the Old Chateau to the Pokemon Mansion? I seriously think the Pokemon Mansion was located in Eterna Forest until those wandering ghosts (previously people) died. >_> And mind informing us about the grim back-story of the Old Chateau, to the person who posted that? Nothing's really THAT grim in Pokemon. She probably choked on a poffin or something. |
Quote:
|
Nope, it is still there. I saw both, there might be more of them in Platinum.
|
or she probably died in battle trying to save her own pokes, but couldn't make it to the Pokecenter because she didn't teach any of her pokes Cut :(
|
yeh exatly
can we please be told the truth or the "grim story" |
I have also felt that it was the previous Pokemon Mansion, but had no evidence to back that up other than they look a bit similar. The building seems to go unmentioned from Rotom forward. They should definitely do something about that when they remake Gold and Silver. Maybe just a short informational text in a library or something.
As for the "Grim Story", I would love to hear the tale. |
Quote:
Bulbapedia: The Old Chateau (Japanese: もりのようかん Forest Manor) is an abandoned mansion near the exit of Eterna Forest. Inside one of its four bedrooms, there is a television, which, if looked at at night after obtaining the National Dex, will initiate a battle with the only obtainable Rotom in the game. HM01 (Cut) and, by extension, the Forest Badge are required to enter the Old Chateau. Spirits of people seem to inhabit the Old Chateau: a little girl who appears in the last room in the hall if the player is in the room with eyes on the wall, and a butler who is seen when entering the dining hall on the first floor after checking the statue. In Pokémon Platinum, it is implied that Charon used to live here, suggesting he is the old owner of the Old Chateau the map mentions. There is nothing about a grim story. In other words, the poster is making it up. Sorry to spoil the fun. :( For the original poster: The little girl in the anime has nothing to do with the little girl in the Old Chateau. The anime little girl episode is somewhere near Hearthome. The only episode that could have referred to the Old Chateau is the Mismagius one, since they were in Eterna Forest. |
Bummer, I'd really like to know more about the Old Cheateu though.
|
Unfortunately, Chaz, all the stories are fanon, and unofficial. Blame Nintendo. xD
|
Okay. Im going to explore the Old Castle (not bothering with French) to shed more light on the facts of the place. Current oddities: - Staring Painting - Gengar is in the staring painting room - You see girl when you enter Gengar/Painting room - Glaring statue - Rotom in the TV - antidote in the bin - Old Cake locked away in an empty room - Butler appearing at the grand table - Gardenia staring at the Old Castle - Gardenia asking if you visited the Old Castle in the Battlefield house - 3 Beds - TM Substitute in the room she was in - Empty Rooms/Not decorated neatly - Moving boxes (not literally moving, boxes FOR moving places) -Tonnes of books. tonnes. Those are about everything I found. --- My conclusion: Gardenia is obviously connected to this. She must be the occupant of one of the three beds. She seems so jumpy about the old castle, the way she stares it down and worries if you checked it. The little girl must be her sister. No, gardenia didn't murder her (hopefully). She's constantly wondering if you checked, hoping that her sister is still alive, and just wandering the halls. The butler obviously died in the kitchen. Someone poisoned him. Since he was the butler, he had to taste-test his masters' food, which probably had traces of poison, but he was clever. He carried an antidote around. Yet you find it in the garbage, why? As you may know, the Old Castle is now inhabited by mainly Gastly and Haunter, which are half poison. What about Gengar? What if someone ordered Gengar to steal the oxygen from the butler? this would be no problem, being a ghost and all... Here's where the moving boxes come in. People were moving into the Old Chateau, yet the master didn't allow Pokemon, so the trainer moving in stowed there beloved Gengar inside the painting which now inhabits the little girls room.. Or her previous one. Once you enter the Gengar room with 1 bed, you see the little girl next door. Why does she only appear when you enter that room? She doesn't want people barging into her room, people including new strangers moving in... The girl wanted to keep this room. It wasn't really hers, it was Gardenia's. Gardenia studied for hours, explaining the loads of books scattered across the mansion. Since there are only 3 beds, Gardenia must have moved out to practice her Gym Leader skills, right before the new little sister came into the world. Her sister defended Gardenia's room with her life. Literally. Her parents, the masters, acknowledged the fact that Gardenia was gone, for a while now, so they didn't care about the room any more. Her little sister held on to it using all her energy. Eventually, she got tossed into the empty room next door by the uninvited guests and got locked inside. This is how she died. She suffered from starvation and oxygen depletion in this disgusting empty room, and left to rot. She died in place of Gardenia, thus leading to the TM Substitute which emerged from her rotten body. The new movers were after something valuable and rare: The Old Gateau This was a common dish in this household, and it was very valuable and rare to see outside of this house. It was very important to, since it was known to cure diseases or illnesses (to pokemon, it cures status problems). The masters were on to them. They knew there was only one Old Cake left. They knew the butler was gone. They knew the daughter was gone. They knew the visitor killed them. They knew they were next. of course, they wouldn't just let the visitor take their cherished and last famous recipe, so they wouldn't go down without a fight. Eventually, they ended up losing... their lives. The glaring statue is now the father, who watches over the house and remembers anyone who enters the house. The mother is now the one who guards the rooms and the people with in them - she is Rotom. Extra guesses: Gardenia was eventually going to return to the house, but seeing her family gone... Knowing they wouldn't go down and lose without a battle.. This is what motivated her to stick with her duty as a Gym Leader. She choose grass pokemon. Green is the colour of life. The lives she's missing and the lives she had missed. She favours the pokemon of green, for one day, she hopes they will bring her loved ones back. Charon is the creator of the electrical appliances Rotom can take over. Perhaps he somehow turned the mother into an electircal spirit (implying he was the uninvited guest). She almost defeated him, but he won in the end. So, he made those appliances to humiliate her. Washing machine, Refrigerator, Lawn Mower, etc. All to say "Stick to what girls do", implying that she shouldn't be battling. She should be moving the lawn, or buying food, or washing dishes, etc. --- Anyway, I'm pretty sure I targeted everything on the list with that small guess :P There's still doubt, though. ^_^ |

I should also include that I got this information from my friend. My friend has a friends who's father actually works for the Pokemon Company. The father lives here, in the U.S., but takes many trips to Japan for work when it is needed. However, I can't always trust him with information such as this. Supposedly, according to my friend, in the Old Chaeteu in Platinum, not only can you find the ghosts of the little girl and butler, you can find the mother and father in the room with the two beds. Also, he said you can find the killer where the Dread Plate is found. Unfortunatly, it is "very rare" to find the parents and the killer. He also told me that the story of Rotom ties in with this event. As I said before, I'm not sure this is reliable information. So please do not flame me... Quote:

I never saw the butler, but the first time I went into the Old Chateau I saw the little girl. She exited the room as soon as I went into the one next to hers... and I tried to follow her to talk to her, but she was just... gone. I freaked and ran outta the Old Chateau like I was being chased by bears. XD Never gone back in since. O_O
Edit: ...It's about 11:30 PM right now, and I've been reading through this thread. I'm sitting in the computer room, which is different from my own bedroom... so I'm gonna have to leave sometime... the door is behind me... but I'm scared to turn around now. O_O Why did I keep reading this thread...? D: |
Gosh, I was browsing through this thread and my cellphone rang. That freaked me out...
0_o |
Guys, you happen to know that this is a just a glitch right?
|
The ghosts freaked me out the first time I saw them.
Maybe theres new ghosts in Platinum XD |
*shrugs* Eh, I always just thought the little girl died on accident or the butler accidently killed her with an Old Gateau that was made wrong. He then killed himself for killing her.
As for the parents, I have no freakin' clue, but I like the statue theory that it is the father. The reason why Rotom is there, because it is dark and gloomy, and ghost Pokemon like those kind of places. The mother could be the red eye painting, but I think that it is a Gengar. |

|
I was scared outta my mind when I saw her...ghosts...in...games...are...creepy! |

Charon seems to know a lot about rotom, and its even more weird when rotom lives inside the old chateau
the note: "something peculiar should make off with the motor" i didnt understand this note was it the butler running away? or was it gardenia? |
