Ooga Booga

Ooga Booga is a town/township in Ooga Booga Land. 

Background

The township (and surrounding region) is a slightly morbid and spooky village of the deceased. The town of Ooga Booga, and the darker lands of the kingdom around is the Land of the Dead in the Realm of Eldritch.

Ooga Booga is home to Dr. Cadaver (the resident physician/doctor and coroner), the undertaker of the land, the Ghoul Kids (fiendish and cruel demon-like children who live for chaos) and many other bizarre and somewhat morbid people and creatures.

Locations

Cemetery Gate (Cemetery Fence)

It is an area filled with graves. It contains a storage shed where the Gravedigger keep his mechanical digging contraption, when it was not in use. There is also a shaft that leads down into the Vulcanix Underground.

The Swamp

The swamp can be entered through a gate, south of the Tree House. The Wood of the Werefolk lies east of the Swamp. The Swamp has two dangerous plants: one plant is made of grassy material that attacks anyone who enters the Swamp. The other is a three budded plant resembling a giant venus-fly-trap, with teeth, though it is only a threat to those who get within its reach. Otherwise it portrays a friendly (if suspicious) demeanor to its potential victims. The Swamp also is the location of Malicia's House, with a gargoyle standing outside it. If the gargoyle is disturbed (either through someone interacting with it, or if it smells someone close to it) it howls, alerting its master to the intruder.

Malicia's House

The house has a single, accessible room, that can only be reached by entering beneath the floorboards, which can be accessed from the back of the structure. Inside, there is a bed, a dressed, a make-up mirror, a table with enchanting ingredients, and a crystal lamp.

Manor House Ruins (House Tomb)

The Manor use to be the home to the Lord of Ooga Booga, his wife, and family dog, until the lord's head was removed, by Malicia's gargoyle, after which the Lady died of heartbreak, and the dog died trying to defend the home, when the Boogyman burned the structure down. The dog's spirit haunted the place, barking at anyone who passed by.

Tree House (Treehouse)

The Treehouse is where the Ghoul Kids live. The treehouse is shaped as a jack-o-lantern, with two ways for the kids to get in. Either the safe elevator, which another could take, or a spiderweb latter, which only the kids could climb without getting caught in the web. Anyone else trying to climb the web would get trapped and eaten by the giant spider that spun it.

Cemetery

The cemetery is a location that has a series of graves. Most of the grave stones have a poem of the person that died and how they passed away. There is one grave stone that is completely blank, leaning over an empty grave. Anyone who jumps into the empty grave would find it is a bottomless pit, and the blank grave would then produce the name of the recently deceased.

Deadfall (Boogeyman's Home)

The location is the home where the Boogeyman lurks underground. The location has a pile of skeleton bones, which can attack anyone who comes near them. Beneath them is the Boogyman's home, as well as the prison of the troll king. There is one branch that is snake-shaped, which indicates whether the Boogeyman is home or not. If pointed up, he is home and will attack anyone who disturbs him, but if it is point down, it means he is gone and his home is unguarded.

Count's Tomb (Horseman's Tomb)

The count's tomb is one of the few burial tombs found in Ooga Booga. The spirit of the count can be seen traveling near his tomb, in his hunt to find his head. Outside the tomb, the shade of the Count's wife is mourning in front of it, and those unfortunate enough to try and console her would look upon her hideous face and die of fright. Inside the structure is a tomb with a decorative dog on the stone lid.

Undertaker's House

The standing house in Ooga Booga, belongs the the mortician, Dr. Mort Cadaver. It has two gates that screech when they are open or closed. Inside, the place is filled with equipment set up for his practice, along with "Mr. Nibbler". It has a desk where he can do his paper work. It also has a bed, shaped like a coffin, where patients can rest peacefully and safely, in an otherwise unsafe land.

Behind the Scenes

According to the Gravedigger, those who die in the Realm of Eldritch are moved onto Ooga Booga. Everyone 'living' in the realm are dead as a doornail, for the most part. As such it acts as a kind of afterlife for those of Eldritch.

Ooga Booga is apparently known as the Land of the Dead in Eldritch. Either that, or she knows of the Realm of the Dead in the Land of the Green Isles. But under the context of rotting together in the coffin, for eternity, and based on what she says in KQ7, it appears she intended to leave them locked away in Ooga Booga for a thousand years. As Eldritch's Land of the Dead, that would mean that Vlad Tsepish is the Lord of the Dead for the land. He may be the equivalent of the Lord of the Dead or personification of Death for Ooga Booga.

Several characters in the game also note had the Volcano erupted and destroyed the world that Ooga Booga would see a huge surge in population (also suggesting that those die in Eldritch go on to exist in Ooga Booga).

Ooga Booga is apparently considered a kingdom although it is ruled by a count. Perhaps he also holds the title of king, but this is never specifically mentioned.
