    I'm s-s-scared!

  • Do you know what is spookier than an actual haunted house? A diorama of it! Actually, that isn't true, but we cannot wait to be scared by your Random Contest entries next week! The deadline to enter is the morning of next Friday, the 25th. Get out your most spine-chilling materials and start building! :)

  • Maintenance Notice - Oh, did you see those lights flickering? It turns out something has been eating away at our wires. We are going to have to take down the site tonight to take care of this... technical issue. The Down for Maintenance Pteri will make a visit at around 11 PM NST until 1 AM NST. If you see that angry red face, don't worry! We shall return to you as quickly as you can.


    Soon...

  • Feeling lucky? Why not take a stroll down to the Haunted Faire? Maybe you will get a lucky apple bob. Of course, Bart doesn't always guarantee nice prizes...

  • This week's Better Than You challenger is Sophix II. Can you complete Assignment 53 before she does?

  • Have you heard? Haunted Hijinks has returned! There appear to be spirits rising at the local graveyard. The only way to put these wandering specters in their place is with a crushing blow from a Menacing Mallet. Each time you take out one of the graveyard's 16 ghosts during the event (October 16th - October 31st), you will earn an exclusive Halloween-themed NC item prize. Head over to the NC Mall to pick up a mallet pack to send those ghosts back to their graves!

  • A brand new Story Telling has begun, courtesy of tttxyv.

    Turning away from the line, she began to walk along a winding path toward the Magical Bookshop. Maybe a good book would lift her spirits? She looked down, her hands buried in her jacket pockets. She suddenly bumped into someone, causing her to fall backward...
