Halloween 2006

The Halloween 2006 Event runs from Thursday, October 26 until Tuesday, October 31, 2006. It includes the return of Halloween collectors, the redecoration of Lion's Arch and Kamadan, and perhaps more importantly, the return of Mad King Thorn who will once again terrorize the populace with terrible jokes while at the same time rewarding them with special holiday treats. There will be another special headwear item available during the event, but it will not be the Pumpkin Crown that was featured in 2005, but rather a brand new one.

This is from the game update that made changes for the event: When the moon shines down on the Elon Like the eye of a ravenous drake

Keep a lantern close by and the darkness at bay For on this holiday night, they say

A spirit returns, pumpkin on head Wicked deeds (and bad jokes) will abound He’ll bluster and shout Spread chaos about ’till a banishment for his mischief be found

Heed my tale, ye brave heroes From lands north and south Listen wherefore I say: Bind your sanity close, lest you lose what you love most When the monarch of madness appears.
