There is one female Ghini named [[Gina]], who lives inside of a tombstone. She is a pink, friendly Ghini who will gladly fuse [[Kinstone]] piece's with you and she has plenty of them to fuse with Link.

Even if the room is lit some Ghini will not turn white; these enemies are considered Dark Ghini.

===''Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon''===
Ghini are ghost like enemies that will appear from various portions of the screen as they try to fly towards Zelda. The beam blade works best if Zelda is at full power, but if not, it is best to avoid these ghost-like enemies at all cost. Unlike many other enemies, Ghini lack the intelligence to turn around. There are white and green variants of the Ghini, but they are identical to one another. If they must confronted head on, the best way to defeat them without taking damage is a well timed jump and sword slash, hitting the Ghini in its head before it can make contact with Zelda.
