Day 1 has ended, please move down to Day 2.

As you enter the massive Foyer you see a man in a dark suit and eye wraps running about, a string of little napkin-ghosts dragging behind his boot. He notices you and smiles.

"Oh good! You're here!"

The Foyer is filled with people setting up tables and cardboard boxes labeled "Halloween Decorations." A stream of workers passes your right and drops of an armful of pumpkins to the side (no doubt from the delivery truck outside). Sheets are being spread over the floor and one of the cooks brings out a box of carving knives.

"Welcome to the Pumpkin Festival! Friday is the pre-event, and we'll be decorating, carving pumpkins, sending out invitations and gifts, and hosting all types of other festivities. The walls (and threads) may seem a bit bland, but they'll be proper decorated by this evening. And speaking of this evening! The GCD Halloween Party officially starts tonight around 6:00 PM Western time. From what I hear they've booked a magic act, it'll be quite the start to quite the party! So come, join us! Grab a knife, carve a pumpkin! Hang some ghosties, go volunteer in the kitchen! There's plenty to do during the pre-event! In the meantime excuse any spelling errors, glitches or other mistakes around the place, we'll try to get them sorted before the party starts."

"So, what is the Pumpkin festival exactly?"

• It's a great time, that's what it is! You pick out pumpkins, get all of your decorations out and make sure that Halloween next week feels welcome! We'll be sending out invitations, decorating the theater, and even do a bit of gift-giving out in the GCD! Anything to get people ready for Gaia's Halloween event!

"Gift giving? I want to play! What should I do?"

• It is traditional to send out refurbished ghost sheets and ghosties during the Pumpkin Festival. You can find both at Ian's shop over in Barton. We like to include this little message with them to let others know about the party. It starts off as just a few people, but eventually turns into a great tidal wave of gift giving!

"Painting the GCD Burlap for Halloween!
Join in this old Halloween tradition by cutting out your own ghosty.

"Do you wear anything during the Pumpkin Festival?"

• Ghosties of course! It's even more fun if you put on the ghosty that you cut out yourself from the Refurbished Sheet (it's a Halloween RNG, costs 100 gold at Ian's). Nothing is more fun than seeing an entire forum in ghost sheets!

"This place seems kind of messy. Can I help?"

• Of course! Make a thread, say hi, go carve a pumpkin or start a game! Anything is welcome at the GCD Halloween Party!

Legends, Mysteries and a Full Moon!

Last night did not go according to plan, not at all... from the murder to the media, it seemed as the whole place had been turned upside down. But hopefully after a good night's sleep the guests would be ready to enjoy the second day of the party. It's not like there were ghosts flitting in and out of the rooms, right? You come across Wickit in the middle of the foyer, looking slightly stressed out and sending staff members this way and that. When he spots you he pauses for a word.

"Oh, good morning! Hope you slept well. Don't you worry about what happened last night, I'm sure that we're just a bone rattle away from finding the killer. In the mean time... be careful. I'd travel in packs just to be safe. Wouldn't want anymore messes, eh? Heh... heh... alright then."

Trying to cover for the awkward comment...

"Today is looking to be quite the event. There are all kinds of legends swimming about this Theatre, and today we're turning the guests loose to see if they can discover them all! On top of that there will be games and contests (if you haven't entered yourself in the costume contest I recommend that you do so) and plenty of tasty snacks from the kitchens!"

"Oh, do be aware... tonight is a full moon, and while that's no cause for alarm it's best if you kept on your feet. Strange things happen during the full moon, and this is a strange place..."



Day 2 has ended! Check back for day 3!
