Neovia

Neovia is a Victorian themed town that was introduced as part of the Tale of Woe plot. Located just past the Gypsy Camp, this spooky yet oddly peaceful town is filled with a variety of shops.

When Neovia was first released on October 6, 2006, it was abandoned and in ruins. However, after the conclusion of the Tale of Woe on November 21, 2006, the town was rebuilt. On this same day, the plot-specific areas of Neovia, such as the abandoned mansion, the trail to Sophie's hut, and The Meepit Oaks Sanitorium for the Psychologically Fragile, were removed.

Yooyuball

Main article: Team Haunted Woods

Ever since winning the championship in 2006, the Haunted Woods' Yooyuball team has been in a steep decline, placing lower and lower every year. Though they are a talented, defense-oriented squad, the team lacks the offensive power to consistently win games.
