    Qeynos City Festival – October 1-7, 2012
    The Far Seas Trading Company is pleased to bring this traveling festival to Qeynos once again. The Qeynos City Festival is a highly-anticipated spectacle, in which all Norrathians may participate. Also in town is the Qeynos Aether Race. Catch them before they leave!

    Nights of the Dead – October 11 – November 5, 2012
    What is lurking in the shadows of Norrath? Adventurers of all levels need to be prepared for whatever spooky surprises haunt the Nights of the Dead! Are you brave enough to enter the haunted houses in Qeynos and Freeport or would you rather craft spooky decorations, and make your very own haunted mansion? Grab costumes from local merchants and explore all there is to see and do in this world wide, limited-time holiday event!

    SOE Live in Las Vegas – October 18-21, 2012!
    We’re getting ready to head to Bally’s Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada! Join us for this incredible, crazy, wacky, fun-filled weekend! This is a celebration of all SOE games and will include three keynote addresses, tournaments (including the EQII Aether Races, with $3,000 in prize money!), panels, and special events. Attendees will also receive a special in-game item for their primary game. For EverQuest II attendees, you will receive Dashenti Lasheris, a Vampire mercenary!

    Moonlight Enchantments – October 20-21, 2012
    The phase of the moon is nearly right, and with the blessing of Tunare, Norrathians might soon stumble upon an entrance to a magical place. As you journey through Norrath, be on the lookout for enchanted mushroom rings. But act quickly! The rings are active for only a very short time each month.

    The Goblin Games Continue!
    Members will be receiving more free tickets to play the Goblin Games in early October, so step right up and play one of three mini-games! All Free and Silver members will receive one ticket and Gold members will receive three. Additional tickets are available in the Marketplace.
    Stay tuned for additional news and updates throughout the month!

    Hey Deadgorie!
    Thanks for your enthusiasm. We're not having a Haunted Homes Decorating Forum Challenge this year.
    But fear not! I have plans for a different decorating challenge in the works for some time in the future.
    Even though there's not a formal challenge for 2012, please feel free to share your happy haunts in the Norrathian Homeshow forums!

    Can we get something worth while in november? Because i mean it looks like you guys just posted about the stuff that happens basically every month and said no plans about anything that could potentially be worth while for 90% of the game.
