Wasn't the Big Whoop a Gate to Heck inside the Monkey Head masked as a rollercoster ride that turns people into skeletons? CMI explains it all.

Guybrush and Elaine having children is equal to them quitting his big adventures. It's just not the same once you start changing diapers. Look what happened to Shrek, Darth Vader or the mammoth from Ice Age, the poor bastards. So I don't want them to have kids.

The Carnival of the Damned is the Big Whoop IIRC. The rumors tricked people into coming there, LeChuck fried them and turned them into his minions.

QUESTION IS

Why do ships have ghosts?

Theory A: Ships are made from timber. Trees are plants. Plants are alive. So they might have some kind of soul.

Theory B: Sailors bond to their ship. It's the only thing between them and the endless deadly seas. So sailors get to worship their ship a little, thus giving is a bit of their own soul. Yeah, it can happen.

Theory C: It's just a game, you should just relax.

I have to agree with bigdondoo and Sir Pantalone. Big Whoop is a lure for greedy pirates. It's a dud, a fake, a red herring, a meaty worm stuck on a fishing hook. A chest with a ticket for a ride that turns you into one of the undead minions of LeChuck. It's all smoke and mirrors. There is no spoon treasure.

QUESTION IS

Why do ships have ghosts?
The minion thing only happened after LeChuck himself got reincarnated through his "boots on booty" trick.
Miwiki.net states:
Quote:
In the third game we learn that Big Whoop is the name of an amusement park (The Carnival of the Damned). In Part 5 of the game LeChuck also goes into a lengthy explanation of the fact that the treasure of Big Whoop was actually a Gate to Hell which is what turned him into a ghost (in the first game LeChuck was said to have died in a shipwreck, but the story elaborates on him surviving).
But I do believe that Big Whoop is the carnival of the damned.
The Big Whoop Treasure in LeChuck's Revenge has a ticket in it... this could be a park ticket or ride ticket....

But that is the fun of the series... Like te Secret of Monkey Island... it has never been made clear what the actual secret is.
Like the suitcase in Pulp Fiction, or the case in Ronin... it's part of the story, but you don't really need to know (or get to know for that matter) what's in it.

Lechuck basically says outright that Big Whoop was a lie to lure in the most greedy pirates for his evil undead army, the type of person who would keep chasing rumors of a tremendous treasure despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary
...cough...

Trust me, it's better that you guys DON'T know what it is. After I discovered it, well, I had such high expectations, and... well... it was really disappointing. I wish I could think of an expression to describe this feeling...
