Halloween at the Haunted Terrortories

19 October 2011

Mousevina von Vermin controls the Haunted Terrortories!

The Haunted Terrortories have returned to Gnawnia and are under the control of a spooky vampire named Mousevina von Vermin!

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!


How to hunt at the Haunted Terrortories

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.

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!

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.

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!


Spooky Rewards

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!

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!


Halloween Skins and Baskets

Looking for some spooky gifts to give to friends? Or perhaps you have a sweet tooth yourself and want to dive into a goodie bag of treats! For the Halloween season, the King is offering a few special haunting supplies!


Halloween Basket

This pumpkin shaped basket is stuffed full of both SUPER|brie+ and Halloween Cheese!


Jumbo Halloween Goodie Bag

This spookily-themed bag is JUST bursting with SUPER|brie+ and Halloween Cheese! Mixed inside, you'll also find a few pieces of Halloween Candy with which to satisfy your sweet tooth!


Zugzwang's Night-Mare Skin

Looking to transform Zugzwang's First Move into something a little spookier? Look no further than this scary-looking trap skin to summon forth the spirit of the headless horseman!


Count Sentinel Skin

Looking to transform the Sandtail Sentinel into a robot with a spooky cloak and a ghoulish walking stick? Well, you have quite specific tastes and this skin does just that! What a coincidence!


Halloween is here!

  • Setup your hunter profile to hand out treats to friends!
  • Visit friends and collect Ghoulgonzola and Candy Corn
  • Hunt with your Halloween cheese at the Haunted Terrortories
  • Earn a new trap, exciting loot, trap skins and more!
