"In October
I'll be host
to witches, goblins
and a ghost.
I'll serve them 
chicken soup
on toast.
Whoopy once
whoopy twice
whoopy chicken soup
with rice."
- Written by Maurice Sendak in Chicken Soup with Rice, 1962

SunnyNeo wishes those who celebrate the holiday, a Haunting Halloween! We have a few reminders for you to do before the month of October draws to a close!

Today is the last day to explore the Haunted Mansion, a traditional NC Event. Head on over to the NC Mall to purchase a 1-, 5- or 16-pack of Spooky Skull Candles to unlock various wearable items. To find a full list of what items are given out on which day, check out our Haunted Mansion Guide. We have to say, a lot of this year's items looks spook-tacular!

Be sure to collect all of this year's Halloween Trick-or-Treat bags that are hidden across Neopia! Collecting all 7 bags awards you with the Trick or Treat 2023 avatar. Be sure to read each bag's item description as each one has a haunting tale, perfect for the night.

^{Click on each bag to find them!}

We are not sure if the new avatar, Dead Chia, is only given during the month of October. We wouldn't be cautious if we did not put out a reminder right now to get the avatar today just in case! We will continue to check after October if the avatar is still redeemable. 

The classic Haunted Woods Site Theme is available to redeem between 11:59:00pm and 11:59:59pm NST tonight (on October 31st). To redeem the site theme, refresh anywhere on the site within that second of time. Good luck!

Lastly, Count von Roo will be spending all of October 31st awake to celebrate the grand night for not so good Neopians. This means that you can play Deadly Dice with him throughout the day and win a chance for the avatar! Be sure to check to see if you have the avatar prior to playing Deadly Dice as a losing round forces you to lose your avatar until you tie with him again. Good luck!
