Absinthe makes you glow for a few moments. Having too many makes you high i think...

Squash Serum makes your head glow with a pumpkin thing.

Ghost-in-the-Box makes a ghost pop out and it goes BOO! ^.^ this one is my fave.

Witch's Brew basically makes you drunk...^^ its fun

4 absinthe produces some interesting effects, including your character doing emotes you didn't order and professing his love to nearby characters.

Those are halloween items so I guess they vanish from your inventory when the special event is over or are replaced by charr carvings or something.

! Whoever is around sees all of them except witches brew, which is just like dwarven ale. I did them in front of my friend last night, 1 absinthe is horribly short-lived, but my friend definately saw it and immediately wanted to go buy some, haha. I think I'm gonna try this cumulative effect today

Well, I spent all day (morning really... 5am-10am) farming Charr and buying Carvings with what I made selling the armor drops. I was paying ~50per once more people got online, but early on, I could get them for as little as 20per. In those few hours (it was actually fun to just blast away at the Charr

), I accumulated enough Carvings to get 50 Absinthe, 40 Squash Serum, 40 Ghost in the Box, and 40 Witches Brew. These are after doing 30 Absinthe in a row just for fun... wow, my head hurt after that one... sadly, I didn't even think to screenie the action.

I only used each item once...Absinthe didn't seem to do that much, although now I see that you have to use a few of them. I'll have to try that! You can also use Absinthe after Witch's Brew to make the effect go green I think.

Lol yestarday some people made allot of money by selling these to people who had no idea where to get them from. People were paying up to 1k for each which to me was crazy, but I guess thats what happens when you are uninformed. Haha

There are 4 more collectors in all the cities except Amnoon. But, lyra's beating me to them, so I'll leave it to her.

Each city has 2 horseman.

Other Droknar horseman takes 1 feathered avicara scalp. Other Ascalon one takes ornate grawl necklaces (2 I think)

and the halloween set is still selling for like 1k a set.

i think it would be better if you spent a lil time to farm grawls or charrs for the items you need (3 charr carvings OR 2 grawl necklaces) for ONE of the items. the collectors are in ASCALON CITY. just how collectors work, but you trade those in for the halloween items ^^;

you can see people in lionsarch selling them if you don't want to farm :P

ghost in the box also takes most of the aggro in instance, but it dies fast

12 absinths followed by 12 witchbrews in a row makes your character say all kinds of funny stuff, sit down, feel dizzy, puff and so on (like a real drunk :P)

quotes like "it's spinning ..." , "oh no, not again" , "i think i need to sit down" , "i think i'm gonna be sick" , ... appear randomly

might get ss of it up tomorrow, if no one beats me to it

Hmm... I have 6 or 8 each of Witches brew and Absinthe. I'm going to try to hop on for the next couple Mad King events to get some more, then I'm going to try the lots of absinthe and Witch's brew thing. I'll post screen, but that won't be until 11 or 12 tonight (CST).

i grabbed 8 witch's brews and downed them in one sitting.

30 minutes later the screen was still kind of woozy.....my elementalist started spouting all kinds of weird phrases and sat down at random.....crazy stuff.
