- — Krantz to Layton and Luke, Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box
Krantz is a character appearing in Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box. He runs the Folsense Hotel alone, since the rest of the staff evacuated when the illness struck. He is found in the Hotel Foyer and is there throughout Layton and Luke's time in Folsense. Krantz is a wise fellow who is aware of plenty going on in the Folsense of today as well as its rich history. Krantz also tells Beluga that he is no longer entitled to the legendary Herzen treasure of Folsense as he left the town and changed his name a very long time ago.
However, Krantz, along with the rest of Folsense and its residents, turned out be an illusion created by a gas coming from Herzen Castle. The real Krantz existed fifty years ago, the illusion of him disappears when the castle collapsed clogging up the hole where the gas spewed out.
