A haunted Halloween MMO tour [Update]
While many real world holidays receive digital treatments in MMOs, it always seems like Halloween is the most popular.

Or perhaps developers just really like pumpkins and haunted houses. Who doesn't? With most MMOs sporting Halloween content, it's a safe bet that there's something for you in your favorite game. So hop on the hayride and get ready for a tour through the most terrifying, cute, and boo-tastic Halloween events in town! [Update: Added more festivals... for justice!]
