Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A common feature Beneath the Earth, in the Mouse World and in The Lost Woods alike, it is not uncommon in fantasy settings to see people making their homes in hollowed-out mushrooms of various sorts. More often than not, this will happen in one of two ways, although exceptions and overlap of course exist:
Sometimes, this kind of residence will be made out of normal-sized mushrooms and will be the home of choice for diminutive humanoids such as gnomes, fairies, pixies and other such Lilliputians. These Mushroom Houses will typically look like toadstools with stout stems fitted with doorways and windows, and with the inside furnished to provide its inhabitant a comfortable home. The mushroom's cap — which will often, but not always, be red with white spots in resemblance to a fly agaric — may or may not be fitted with windows of its own. This sort of house is a common feature of the more magically inclined Mouse Worlds.
Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The other common variant involves normal-sized people living in giant-sized mushrooms instead. These will typically serve as a much more alien variant of the Arboreal Abode, highlighting the alien, magical or generally otherworldly and unusual nature of the place they're found in. This type may sometimes be paired with intelligent mushroom people.
See also Arboreal Abode, for the variant of this trope as applied to plants, and Fungus Humongous, for when normal-sized people live in house-sized mushrooms.

The Smurfs: The eponymous tiny blue humanoids live in a hidden village in the forest made up of mushrooms like this, with stout round stems hollowed out to make houses and tall, colorful caps. Unless they're actually regular if tiny houses built to look like mushrooms, in an in-universe invoking of this trope.

The Light Fantastic: While traveling through the Forest of Skund, the protagonists meet Swires, a gnome living inside a mushroom with a red cap with white spots. The mushroom itself is described as belonging to a kind that a shaman they met previously, who habitually consumed hallucinogenic fungi to trigger religious experiences, would only eat "after tying himself to a rock".

Magi-Nation: The Underneath, a vast region of caverns Beneath the Earth, is almost entirely covered by vast forest-like growths of gigantic mushrooms with purple stalks and orange, spotted caps. For lack of other building materials, the locals often hollow these mushrooms out, fit them with doors and windows and use them as their primary source of housing.

Dungeons & Dragons:
The myconids are a race of Mushroom People from the Underdark who cultivate a wide variety of fungi, including large ones that they sometimes use as dwellings.
The Abyssal realm of the Demon Queen Zuggtmoy is a cavern choked with Festering Fungus and miles-tall mushrooms in which she has carved her palace.
Dungeon magazine Issue #56 adventure "The Bigger They Are...": Deep in a forest, the Player Characters encounter two huge fungi, one fifteen feet high and the other ten feet high. Each has had their insides hollowed out and carved into small rooms by the quickling who lives in them.
Forgotten Realms: Eleven miles Beneath the Earth, the Underdark "Garden City" of Fluvenilstra is partly built into the giant mushrooms and other magically enhanced plants that dominate the local landscape. It also has relatively large Mushroom Man, Plant Person, and Planimal populations.

World Tree RPG: Dullogs are large, dome-like mushrooms that grow up to a few hundred feet around and forty high. Their insides are spongelike networks of interconnected chambers, which people — usually non-primes, as most prime species have better options — often use as living spaces. While windows can be cut into the outer cells to let in light, people living further in depend on the fact that dullog flesh glows orange when wet.

The Elder Scrolls:
In Morrowind, the nobles of the Great House Telvanni — a Great House focused on magic and ruled by wizards — reside in magically-grown giant mushrooms in which rooms and corridors are hollowed out, essentially forming giant fungal Mage Towers. The commoners live in smaller mushroom houses, the size of a cottage. If you join House Telvanni and advance through the questline, you eventually grow your own giant mushroom to live in, Tel Uvirith.

If you're in a pinch and need a quick shelter in Minecraft, a red mushroom and some bone meal to grow it will come in handy, since it produces a giant mushroom that you can then use as an impromptu home for the night.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In "It Ain't Easy Being Breezies", the magically hidden home of the breezies is filled with mushrooms of this sort, with caps with glowing blue undersides. Unusually, however, the homes don't seem to be in the stems themselves. Instead, the tall, thin stems only have a doorway at their base, while multiple windows dot the broad caps high in the air.
