The Giggling Ghost is an actual location in the Wold: It is a well-known watering hole located on the Fence Level of The Floating City. Adventurers active and retired, dead and alive, gather here in dreams and in reality to congregate and enjoy themselves. The annual Yule parties are a must-attend event, and when adventuring groups achieve Dragon status or retire, it is usually the Giggling Ghost that hosts the celebration.
The Giggling Ghost is also an in-character board where player characters from different games can meet, socialize, and compete in games and contests. Adventurers can also enter the magical tapestries that line the walls in order to participate in short-term modules called Tapestry Games.
