Boo! Did I scare you? Good because October is all about scares. 👻

The Hallo'Moon Faire event continues in October. As a reminder, this event will end on Tuesday, November 5th 10PM EST. You can learn more about the Hallo'Moon Faire in a previous newspost here.

Unfortunately, due to technical difficulties, the next chapter of the storyline, A Full Moon, has been delayed as well as the seasonal prompt. There will be an announcement when the backend error is fixed and both prompts are released. Thank you for patience and my apologies for the delay.

In more positive news, there is something to do! As you know, Cossetlings originally launched late October/early November. Even though November is the official anniversary month, that doesn't mean there can't be some early spooky celebrations~

trick o' treat!

For a limited time, you can travel to a new location: Henbane Grotto, a district in Nightshade Hollow who welcomes trick-or-treaters all October long, to earn Spooky Candy.

What can you do with this candy? Not only are they delicious, but spooky candy happens to a favorite treat for witchlings. Trade them in at the Witchy Kiosk in exchange for a Hallo'ween Goodie Bag until Tuesday, November 5th 10PM EST.

But you can't go to the grotto without a costume! You need at least one Hallo'Ween Mask to go trick o' treating or else they'll chase you out of town. You gotta be in the Hallo'ween Spirit, and it seems you don't have to be alone as you can also go trick o' treating with a NPC!

When the phrase 'trick o' treat' appears in the Witchy Kiosk, follow the link to visit the grotto with a NPC and earn even more candy. Just make sure to bring your mask!

And speaking of masks, you can now unlock the sixth one in exchange for the original five here. Don't forgot you can always make more masks until the faire ends on Tuesday, November 5th 10PM EST.

With this mask, you can unlock a special dialogue with a NPC to earn a Spooky Lolly. Witchlings value these lollipops a lot more than regular candies and you can trade them for a goodie bag and other items like this month's souvenir!

October's Souvenir: Abandoned Mirror

This haunting souvenir grants a ghostly appearance.

Abandoned Mirror will be available until November 5th in Cosette's Souvenirs and November 10th in Witchy Kiosk.

And, for the first time, there's an exclusive souvenir for Hallo'ween!

Hallo'ween's Souvenir: Infernal Contract

This unnerving souvenir grants dark sclera.

Infernal Contract can be obtained from the Hallo'ween Goodie Bag which the Witchy Kiosk will keep in stock until they close on Sunday, November 10th 10PM EST.

I wonder what else could be in the goodie bag? It appears there's a limited-time memento, Pumpkin Lollipop, and what's this? It appears something is hiding in here!

Hallo'ween Cosprout: Monstro

Available in October

Despite their looks, these monster-like cosprouts are huge scaredy kattes and easily frightened by the scary stories they love. In fact, they're usually only seen during Hallo'ween as it's the scariest time of year (to their delight and fright). As such, they're easiest to befriend in October.

And speaking of scary stories, it's no surprise Malcolm has published a new rather spooky one.

Event Storybook: What Goes Bump in the Night

This limited-edition storybook will enchant a cosprout to be spooky.

What Goes Bump in the Night will be available in the Secluded Cottage until November 5th and in the Witchy Kiosk until November 10th.

That's all for now. I hope everyone has a wonderful and spooky October! 🎃
