Halloween is coming, and Mad King Thorn is back to spread his own malevolent brand of lunatic fun with ten days of mayhem. Decorations go up on October 23 and the ghoul-apalooza begins the next day. Find all the gory details on this year's Halloween event page.
YAYAYAYAY!
23rd is Thursday \o/ \o/ \o/
Oh, man. 10 days of raptor farming. I don't know if my hands can take it...

Cool, can't wait 
But this also means every 30 seconds someone in LA will write "When does the Mad King come?"

... [[Costume Brawl]] (now with a brand-new map)! ...
I wonder why that maps are not in RA, TA and/or HB.
I imagine that maps were originally created for normal PvP with GW:EN (or GW:Utopia), but .. for some strange reason, weren't added to the game, why?

Honestly the only time to play is on halloween the rest of the time is spent wondering what hat do we get this year.

Hmm.. 10 days should give me enough time to get rank 3 gamer, maybe even make it half way to rank 4.
Although farming for ToT bags will be tempting (especially with a farm I've found that's even better then Raptors).
Edit: The map probablly IS already in the game. Last year there were just 2 maps for costume brawl (which is basically just Hero battles with people and set bars). Likely they will just use one of the HB maps that already exist that wasn't used in costume brawl.

For the europhiles among us.
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Halloween_2008
for everyone else
And for the person who asked "Where do I get the Hat?" You should really learn how much fun it is to research these things. There was a link given at the top which has all the details, but if you really cba to read it, just come along in whatever dream state you exist in and participate in the fun on Halloween. It might just magically appear in your inventory :-)

On topic;
I'm really looking forward to this. Halloween is my favorite holiday in and out of the game. Especially since it will last so long, it will allow those of us with busy lives to participate a lot as well.

and yet another pumpkin crown to show the hat maker....well, at least my monk can drink and /yes /flute etc....when the mad king gets there....so maybe I will get level 1 drunkard too

wow 10 days of costume brawl? How about 10 days of the Boardwalk being open then for a change instead of a weekend.....

Hmmm... No mention of NPCs in Ascalon, Henge of Denravi, Kodlonu Hamlet, Champion's Dawn or Sunspear Great Hall. I wonder if the last two months farming has been wasted. I guess I will just wait and see.
And no decorations for Droknar's Forge or Tomb of the Primeval Kings?
Is this a sign of comming events, a reduced Winter's Day?

It's said the same thing for the past few years, and they're always there. Take the tin hat off, and wait for a pumpkin crown, imo
