How Are You Preparing for Halloween in TSTO?

Seeing how it’s a week away, I was wondering how you’re preparing for the next event during our downtime.

I’ve taken the time to remove all non-Halloween characters from my Springfield. Anyone not in a costume or a monster /alien / superhero etc. are either in storage or doing eight hour tasks in the Magic Academy or the Chez Guevara.





I’ve also created a gated Halloween town using the walls from the “Warmfyre” event. All I need to do now is lay out the pumpkins.

    @4junk3000 - it's from THOH 2022 and looks like this ...



    I hope BP remembers this one :joy:
  • Well now where did I put that? Instant halloween easter egg hunt yay ?

    Update: wow that took an hour of searching; i just moved it next to the Christmas plunger so i won’t lose it again! I really like how using it activates a bunch of seasonal decorations i completely forgot we had! Not only the newer residential decorative skins,

    but also classics like the tower skins:
    love these!

    I set up a Halloween Fair in my SF’s Town Square, to temporarily make use of the Halloween themed items i have in storage. Part of the design includes using the zombie sandwich dumpster to spawn all zombies at the Square.


    Then i will also task every character that brandishes a weapon. I think it’s hilarious seeing all the chars with shotguns and more, seemingly hunting down zombies. ?


    I also “open up” my town’s HaUnTeD house exhibit.

    This was meant to be a temporary design, but i liked it so much I’ve kept it year round; but in a “closed for the off-season” style arrangement, without a crowd waiting or lights operating.

    I don’t have a permanent Halloween area, but i do have the cemetery adjacent to the Transylvania-like area that I’ve designated as Humbleton and combined with those items


    I love preparing for THOH, Thanks for asking!
  • That is nice. I have a large dedicated Halloween area that stays in place all year. I have made some new space in it. I have pumpkins and halloween balloons out on the streets, and all halloween lights on the houses turned on.....used the halloween plunger to do all skins etc at once. Once the event hits I will assess how much extra space I need to clear.
  • Halloween plunger?? I forgot that was a thing! Now I need to find mine. But first must look up what it looks like! :D
