When you creak open your in-game mailbox today, just remember: not every ghost, goblin, or ghoul is out for blood. (Just yours.)

That's right, the shadows are once again leaking foulish beasties into Norrath, and it's your job to find out why. Nights of the Dead is all about embracing your fear and need for adventure. It's also all about the macabre and how far you're willing to go for some sweet, sweet loot. Zintris will have new adventures for you in Qeynos and Freeport, while some returning challenges hold some new rewards. Whether you’re digging up a ghoulish good time in your favorite city, hunting ghosts in Antonica or the Commonlands, or investigating any of the other haunted locations on this mortal plane, Terris-Thule is bound to have a good scare in store for you!

Those inclined to celebrate the holiday with a few crafting tricks or treats will find a new book of recipes full of new housing items to craft sold by Lil’ Boo—one of the official event merchants—along with other new items. Haint—the other merchant—sells the returning must-have items. Yes, there is enough between the two of them to create your own haunted house!

Nights of the Dead starts today and ends on November 4, 2021 at 11:59 p.m. PDT, and every player, regardless of level, will be able to find out why there are shrieks and howls coming from the darkness. Just be sure to bring along an extra pair of unmentionables.
