I can't wait, but I would like anet to say the times they will be celebrating.

I do hope there will be special events, but how would they possibly decide on the timezone to use? their own?

I'm not sure what influence NCSoft has on ArenaNet, but with games primarily developed by NCSoft there are always Special Events on holidays.

This can be from special creatures that appear in certain zones, special drops, change in the weather .... etc.

The only similarity that I see ArenaNet has taken from NCSoft was the Costume Contest. It would be nice if they added something within the game.

Bah, I hate gnomes. I hope Guild Wars will never have them either. Maybe arenanet will change all the armors to some halloween costumes, for say, maybe the warrior fissure helmet will be a carved jack-o-lantern.

While I highly doubt it's what's going to happen, I really want to see towns invaded by Undead. Heh. Defend the NPCs!

I think the armors will get changed to speacial costumes
New exclusive weapons for haloween only or your existing weapons turn into something more spooky
And maybe undead everywhere

Change the theme of Lions Arch on that day, to a nice halloween theme.

They will post up the winning contest entries. Then we get a halloween message. That's what I think. I don't anticipate any large amount of changes.

People still play runescape

and to stay on topic:
I hope that all the chars will become undead just for holoween, and some special drops will be placed in the game.

Welcome to how to ruin the ingame economy 101.

RS chars:
Omnidragon42 - 107
X Omnishot X - 61 (pure)

I quit RS when I found guildwars though ^_^

Ontopic: I hope its something cool, like a non-tradeable item that looks neat, or maybe some decor changes around the world.
