'''Gloomy Gulch''' is the fifth world in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. It is a haunted area set in a dilapidated {{wp|ghost town}}<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' Player's Guide, Nintendo, 1995, p. 20</ref> set between dark, spooky woods, with ghostly inhabitants such as [[Kloak]]s. The world takes place between [[Krazy Kremland]] and [[K. Rool's Keep]], but in ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', the standalone [[Klubba's Kiosk]] appears to the left of it on the [[Crocodile Isle]] map.

Compared to its two preceding worlds, [[Krem Quay]] and [[Krazy Kremland]], Gloomy Gulch's world map is smaller, with a size around that of the first world, [[Gangplank Galleon]]. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake, every world map was redesigned and extended, including Gloomy Gulch's, whose size rounds out that of previously-larger worlds.
