Prior to this news, pub crawlers could enjoy What the Dickens pubs, one in England and one in Japan (I’m not sure they’re related, as the title1 comes rather easily).

As for the author worlds, a Poe World would be wild, but probably not workable as long as absinthe is banned. I would favor a Hemingway World, basically for the cigars and spirits.


Note

1. Can anyone in The Locker Room name the author who popularized the phrase “what the dickens” and where?
