Star Wars Galaxies: It's Halloween in the galaxy far, far away


The much-anticipated Galactic Moon Festival (aka Halloween) begins in Star Wars Galaxies today, and will continue through November 7th. There's a guide to the festival at the game's website, full of neat-o images and info on where to go and what to do.

Basically, you can take a shuttle to Moenia or Mos Eisley and chat up one of the festival organizer NPCs to get your trick-or-treating gear (including a costume). After that, you have thirty minutes to go forth and say "trick or treat!" to the inhabitants of the city. If they don't give you a treat (festival coins), then you can use a device given to you by the organizer to cause them terrible, terrible pain -- to quote a wise man from another Sci-Fi universe: "Pain is scary."

Festival coins collected while trick-or-treating can be exchanged for prizes at the organizers, including creepy house decorations.
