October 1st last year, which makes me nervous that they haven't mentioned it. Last year it was announced with the anniversary, and that publish was August 30th.

I thought I heard someone say that Messana had said something about new pumpkins, though, so hopefully that's true.

Oh that's sad about the bones. I have a house full of named bones, was planning on collecting more. Oh well. Glad to know something is planned anyway!

Various stuff. There's always some new content or a quest or whatever for halloween. Some are pretty involved, some are simple. The better ones have been some of the most fun content they have added.

Last year was butchers that spawned dropping carving kits, that could be used on special pumpkins you got from killing special pumpkin monsters that spawned in fields, named skeletons that spawned in cemetaries when you die that can drop bones with your name on them, as well as trick or treating having a rare chance to give you the head of a dev member on a pike.

Seems some of last years stuff is up right now, hopefully something new will be added as well.
