this year's Halloween event

Just saw the post from gw on fb saying the event will start on 11th october and end on 18th...
I thought it will last longer. Also the post doesn't say anything about the mad kings appearance

Will we really have just 1 week of the event with the quests and drops without the finale or is gw bf posting announces week by week? (As in next week we'll have halloween and then the week after a new announcement talks about another week of halloween with the finale?)

The main reason im askong this is cause I never fully experiamced all the quests, and never seen the mad king on finale (even tho I have gw for more than 6y). And ill be working on a cruise ship till 15th-17th october... I don't wanna miss out on it again this year aswell

The wiki's your friend:
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Halloween

yes, all of the festivals are now on set days every year.:
(http://wiki.guildwars.com/index.php?...ldid=255905 4)

"Moving forward from the start of automation, ''all'' holidays are on a fixed schedule. Most events have been increased to seven full days so that they overlap two weekend days at some point, and for this reason, none will be manually adjusted for optimal placement in a given year. As some people discovered at Halloween, this also means fixing a time that, due to daylight savings, will sometimes be an hour earlier or later than one might expect."

Yes I checkes the haloween page but not the 2nd one cosyfiep posted

The 2nd wiki link says Halloween lasts till the end of the month..hope its true
