Ghost World (also known as the Concrete Ruins) is an openly-looping deeper location found by traveling through the Crossover Garden in the Sky Garden.
Features
After interacting with one of the flowers in the Sky Garden's Crossover Garden, heading left will reveal a blue doorway that leads to Ghost World, a drab and dour area consisting of several monotonous concrete cubes stained with decay and dereliction. The eerie soundtrack creates an incredible sense of dejection and loneliness.
Found around the Ghost World are three strange characters known as Ghostmen, which simply wander around. One other character found here, Fleebie, can be seen quickly floating away from Madotsuki when she approaches. Catching up to Fleebie will give Madotsuki the Triangle Kerchief effect.
Directions
Nexus → Dark World → Wilderness → Sky Garden → Ghost World
Trivia
- In Japanese culture, white lilies are associated with death and funerals, which explains the method of reaching the area by interacting with a white flower.
Theories
The Ghost World is seemingly the "other side", the dimension of ghosts and souls that exists parallel to the corporeal world. This could be Madotsuki's interpretation of what death or the afterlife is like. Considering other violent themes throughout Madotsuki's dreams, it is reasonable to assume she may think of the concept of death often.
It should be noted that some locations in Yume Nikki seem to parallel the afterlife, with Ghost World being one of them. The Sky Garden seems to represent Heaven, as it is peaceful in both its atmosphere and music, it lacks any "harmful" NPCs that may trap Madotsuki or send her to a completely different world, and is high up in the sky, as is often depicted with Heaven and its nature of being among the clouds. Hell seems to, as the name implies, represent Hell, as it is difficult to navigate through, filled with hostile Toriningen, and sports a droning soundtrack accompanied by bright red visuals. The Ghost World seems to represent a neutral landscape, as it takes elements from the two previously mentioned worlds. The area is dark and has an unsettling track playing as Madotsuki explores, yet there is nothing hostile in the area, not even NPCs that teleport Madotsuki, and is even home to a useful effect.
The NPCs found in Ghost World, known as Ghostmen by fans, highly resemble chromosomes. This resemblance is also shared with structures found in the Pink Sea and Barracks Settlement. This could relate to the various body themes in the dream world, particularly the abundance of strabismic characters throughout the game, with strabismus being linked to genetics.
