Im confused about this. Ive seen a couple of times a reference to the increase capping out at Level 41. And Ive seen elsewhere saying that you can continue to upgrade ad nauseum. Im at Level 48 and there is still the text about upgrading will gain a 5% increase to the rate at which Nightmares will spawn. This tells me that it *should* keep increasing? But does it?

Time the spawn of the nightmares yourself. You'll find it to be like every 1:51 (or something close to that), which is what it is at level 41. Those at higher levels have found the spawn rate isn't any faster, so the in-game text is telling a lie.

It's 1:56 for me, and I'm getting close to level 60.
So yeah it caps out at the level 41... at least when watching in game. It's possible it still increases when you aren't in your Springfield (or at least it feels like mine gets full faster)... but that would be real, real hard to confirm and at least what we see while logged in validates that it stops improving at level 41.
Does anyone know how long it takes til your town is full of nightmares once you're at level 41 (or above)?
You'll get about 30/hour at that level (from just the regular spawn). Supposedly 60 = town full (20 visible plus 40 in reserve). So about two hours. But campfire kids might lessen that.
I'm leveling up using zombies only. I hope it keeps going, this is 85 brambles. Clearly I'll need many more.
Im working on a bramble hedge maze too! Plus I want to replace my regular hedges in my Halloween area with the bramble hedges which is probably hundreds. I wish we could skip the tents and sheds or trade them in or better yet have the option of buying the hedges.

I AM skipping the tents and sheds. Zombies all day every day! It just keeps giving me brambles!
All my designs look unfinished because i can't place as many plants, streetlights, and fences as i would like. PLEASE REMOVE THE LIMIT, EA!
What I mean by that is, when should I stop worrying about the level of my campfire and solely focus on getting zombie brains? I think my campfire is 24 at the moment.
.
It's stated that the decrease in spawn time will continue up to and including level 41. So if you want to benefit for the maximum amount from the campfire you still have some grinding to do.
You need to decide if that's worth it with 20 days left of the event.

How are you doing that?
Elsewhere someone wrote: "Brambles are tied to Martin and Milhouse. So long as you produce either zombies or bunnies, the campfire will keep upgrading on its own, but always with brambles as the reward. At lower levels automatic upgrading may be more sporadic, but by level 55, it is constant. I currently have 180 brambles at level 60."
Is that what's happening to you? What level are you on? I still don't get this "automatic upgrading" business. I'm at level 42, constantly making brains, but since the upgrade wants snakes I'm not getting any upgrades.
I've consistently leveled up by only collecting zombies. It supersedes the task requirement and rotates forward anyway.
Example, it said i needed to collect snakes. I kept collecting zombies. (Don't even have a teller assigned because Martin is helping recycle plastic. Only non-recyclers are at the campfire)
Over the course of the day i accumulated 60 snakes. Idk how. Anyway, when i got to "X" number of zombies, (i assume 200) it said i leveled up, awarded me brambles, and the level increased. Then it said i needed to collect bunnies, and showed i had 8 already.
But I'll keep doing zombies. I've gone from L24 to L31 this way.

Great idea! I love it, to use the wailing walls surrounding the bramble hedges maze! I might steal that

To answer the question... .
It's stated that the decrease in spawn time will continue up to and including level 41. So if you want to benefit for the maximum amount from the campfire you still have some grinding to do.
You need to decide if that's worth it with 20 days left of the event.
So, why zombie brains?
I actually had the same question because this is not the first time I read about someone wanting to focus on zombie brains.
Edit: Aaah so that's what it's for, wailing walls
How are you doing that?

Woah! Thanks for the info!
