If you have a [[Soulstone]] and have not yet purchased a [[Soul Catcher]] Trap, make sure to do so before the [[Trapsmith]] closes. Note that you do not need any additional supplies from the Halloween shoppes to upgrade the Soul Catcher into the [[Soul Harvester]] Trap. The materials required to perform the upgrade can be found as loot and purchased from the various [[General Stores]] located across the Kingdom. This means you can upgrade your trap at anytime, assuming you have discovered the [[location]] of the required General Stores.

As a reminder: Spooky Charms also carry a [[power bonus]] in all other areas of the Kingdom.
 
  
Additionally, you can exchange extra [[Ghoulgonzola]] and [[Candy Corn]] Cheese at the [[Charm Shoppe]] within the Vacant Lot to aquire more Spooky Charms.

===Team Up and Search for Pranksters===
 
''{{date|28|October|2011}}''
 
 
<blockquote>
 
<blockquote>
====Mischievous Pranksters Hidden in the Haunted Terrortories====
 
 
<p>Reports are flooding in from hunters at the [[Haunted Terrortories]] describing some existing breeds of mice that have taken a liking to playing tricks on hunters! Unfortunately the mice are keeping the identities of the pranksters a closely-guarded secret. Searching for the pranksters will no doubt be a challenge that will push your Halloween hunting skills to their maximum! To help you cover more ground and get to the bottom of this mystery quicker, the [[King]] and [[Larry]] have recommended that hunters team up!</p>
 
 
 
====Forming Your Team====
 
 
<p>To begin the search for pranksters, you'll first need to form a team. You can captain your own and invite friends to join, or ask a friend to invite you to theirs.</p>
 
 
<p>To captain your own team, click [[Hunting Team]] within the dropdown menu under the friends navigation button at the top of the game. You'll then be able to name your team and write an optional team motto and description. Once your team has been created you can then invite friends to join it!</p>
 
 
<p>If you're invited to a friend's team, you'll receive a notification at the top of the game where you can accept or decline the invitation.</p>
 
 
<p>If you want to search for pranksters alone, you can create your own one-person team. However, you'll no doubt find the pranksters quicker when searching with friends!</p>
 
  
 +
==== The Treasure Map Mega Party has Started! ====
 +
A brand new mini-event has just begun in the Kingdom of Gnawnia: the '''Treasure Map Mega Party'''!
  
====Searching for Pranksters====
+
For the next '''two weeks''', Treasure Maps can now hold '''TWICE''' as many hunters, up to a maximum of '''10'''!
  
<p>Once you've joined a team you'll notice a new heads-up display appear while hunting in the Haunted Terrortories. When you first begin the search, your team will know the identity of one of the prankster mice. When any member of your team captures that breed of mouse, your entire team will then discover the identity of another prankster breed!</p>
+
This applies to all Treasure Maps except Solo Maps and Wanted Posters.
  
<p>You can hover over the mice to see who bagged which breed and when they did it! Once ten breeds of prankster mice have been caught, everyone on your team will receive a reward. Mice are tricksters by nature and, as a result, your team will no doubt be able to repeat the search, with different prankster mice causing trouble!</p>
+
So gather twice as many map mates and get the mega party started!

<p>When ten breeds of pranksters are uncovered, everyone on your team will receive a Spooky Surprise from the King! You can claim your surprise from the gifts page. What's inside? The King doesn't want to spoil the surprise, but he's hinted that the contents will help satisfy your sweet tooth...</p>

If you're still on a map when the event ends, everyone currently on the map remains on it and can finish it! However, new hunters cannot be invited beyond the map's regular size.

After ten seasons, the Relic Hunter Mouse has finally collected enough Ancient Relics from hunters that she can now begin her archaeological research into the true origin of mice in Gnawnia and why they came here.
  
====Spooky Supply Kit====

She can still be found traveling around the Kingdom each day while she conducts her research but she will no longer steal Ancient Relics from hunters. Now when a Relic Hunter Mouse is caught, hunters can loot Ancient Relics from her, recovering some of what she had stolen over the years.
  
To aide teams in their search for the identities of prankster mice, The King has put together a most spooky-looking supply kit! Inside is a wealth of Spooky Charms along with some Halloween Cheese!

====Cobweb Mice looking for a new hiding spot====
 
  
<p>It appears as though hunters are not the only ones interested in [[Hunter%27s_Profile#Trick-or-Treating|Trick-or-Treating]] this year! [[Cobweb Mouse|Cobweb Mice]] have also been spotted going door to door, but instead of looking for a delicious treat, they've been seeking a safe haven from hunters' traps.</p>
+
These breathtakingly beautiful new trap skins can be purchased from the King's Arms using Gilded Coins or from the Premium Shop.
  
<p>In their efforts to find a more secure place to make a home, these Cobweb Mice have spun webs on the [[Hunter's Profile|profiles of hunters]] who have not picked up their hunter's horn in a long time. Nestled safely inside the long-since-used inventories of inactive hunters, these Cobweb Mice think they've outsmarted us by finding a sneaky hiding spot!</p>

<p>'''The Haunted Terrortories have returned to Gnawnia and are under the control of a spooky vampire named Mousevina von Vermin!'''</p>
 
 
 
<p>Mousevina has discovered a rare Soulstone capable of bewitching the minds of mice which she is currently using to defend her stronghold within the Haunted Terrortories. Various spooky mice from around the kingdom have fallen under her spell, and some have even dressed up for the occasion! Reaching her will no doubt be a spooky adventure, but your heroics will be rewarded! The Trapsmith at the Terrortories is especially interested in Mousevina's Soulstone. If you're able to capture her and acquire a Soulstone, be sure to visit the Trapsmith and see what secrets he can unlock!</p>
 
 
 
 
 
====How to hunt at the Haunted Terrortories====
 
 
 
<p>Navigating the Haunted Terrortories will require a hunter to both trick and treat the mice there by hunting with Ghoulgonzola (trick) and Candy Corn (treat) Cheese.</p>
 
 
 
<p>Gathering trick and treat cheese in Gnawnia is a familiar tradition. Each day, hunters may visit up to 10 friends and receive some bait. Before you visit others, be sure to visit your own profile and choose what type of cheese you're handing out! If you find yourself getting low on cheese, you can also hunt at the Terrortories using Swiss, Brie, Gouda or SUPER|brie+ to attract Hollowhead Mice that drop Halloween Cheese. Additionally, you may find it inside Pumpkin Treat Baskets which you can send as gifts to friends!</p>
 
 
 
<p>The Haunted Terrortories consists of three areas: The Corn Maze, Haunted Manor and the Pumpkin Patch. You must both trick AND treat enough mice in your current area to begin attracting mice from the next. Your trick and treat progress will be displayed while hunting in the Haunted Terrortories.</p>
 
 
 
<p>Are you an experienced hunter looking to hunt more challenging and rewarding mice? Visit the Charm Shoppe at the Haunted Terrortories and purchase Spooky Charms which, when armed, will attract more fearsome mice worth greater rewards!</p>
 
 
 
 
 
====Spooky Rewards====
 
 
 
<p>The Trapsmith at the Haunted Terrortories is especially interested in Mousevina's Soulstone. If you capture Mousevina and find her Soulstone, you'll then be able to purchase the Soul Catcher Trap. Highly experienced hunters may also find ways to increase the Soul Catcher's power and create a far spookier piece of hunting equipment that has a special luck bonus!</p>
 
 
 
<p>While visiting friends and hunting your way toward Mousevina, you may also find a few morsels of Halloween Candy, and if you're especially lucky you may even come across rare Cobwebs. These Halloween Candies and Cobwebs can be exchanged at the various Haunted Terrortories shops to purchase a wide variety of exciting loot, including never-before-seen charms and trap skins!</p>
 
 
 
 
 
====Halloween Skins and Baskets====
