Halloween
During the final week of October to the first few weeks of November, the Halloween events will suddenly swoop into Elyssia, where you can expect to find most of the noticeable events in Saliko Village. In addition, additional events may occur from the other villages too. All of the activities are listed below.
Event Details
All around Elyssia, there are NPC's waiting for you to go and talk to them, in a good old trick or treat meet to greet (you don't even need a costume!). The first NPC that you will talk to will offer you a bag of treats, while talking to more NPC's afterwards will only offer you the usual Candy Corn instead. You can round up multiple treat bags the more characters you have, but at the same time can be very time-consuming.
There are also trophies you can obtain from Halloween, by simply participating in trick or treating with each individual NPC (note that some NPCs will not offer you a trick or treat option), or collecting each type of candy so you can sample on them. But a third of the trophies will come from defeating the notorious Darneus boss (recommended level 37) and participating in a battle of agility against other infected players as you try to nibble on every non-infected player.
Saliko Village
Saliko Village acts as the central hub for two things: mainly the Halloween shop (the Large Pumpkin NPC beside Alyshia) for spending all those tokens you've collected, and hosts the terrifying Zombie Siege event. Each purchase can be quite costly, so choose wisely as you browse through the event shop's wares. Note that if you don't have enough tokens for that one good item that you wanted, you can always save up those tokens for next year (it'll reuse the same tokens).

Zombies
After the Zombie Siege event ends, a special type of zombie will randomly spawn somewhere in Saliko. Finding this zombie can get you infected, allowing you to bite and infect other players. Having the most bites after the Halloween events end will yield in a special halloween tabard, along with trophies for achieving a certain amount of bites (you cannot cheat by biting a character you made on another account, sorry!).
Darneus
Completing a certain quest line will allow you to face Darneus in the Cursed Farm, regardless of event or not. However, you can only obtain the trophies, the tokens, Halloween-themed equipment and special spooky decorations for your cavern during Halloween as part of Darneus's drops.
