Your Guide to Trick-or-Treating in the Haunted Woods



Halloween is a wonderful time of year, full of all kinds of fun treats. Many Neopians look forward to this celebration all year. The Haunted Woods is the place to be this season. There are spooky delights beyond your wildest dreams to be found, but it's fraught with frights that could catch travellers unaware. Werelupes prowl the woods, ghosts haunt the scattered graveyards, and some say the Deserted Fairground is rigged to steal your hard-earned Neopoints! Here are 13 known dangers to keep an eye out for as you explore these dreadful woods, as well as a few tips to maximize your treats and minimize the tricks. Esophagor RAWRRR! A gaping hole in the ground screams as you wander towards the gates of the Haunted Woods. It gives you quite a fright at first, but when you take a closer look, you spot two glowing red dots staring back at you. The realization dawns: you’ve stumbled upon the infamous Esophagor. As you cautiously approach him, the creature bellows, "MUST... EAT..." Don’t worry, he doesn’t mean you (hopefully). He’s just hungry for some spooky food items and wants to send you on a quest. Do not accept, and I repeat, do not accept his quests! This will waste valuable trick-or-treating time. Here are a few survival tips: The Esophagor is rooted to the spot, so if you tiptoe carefully around him, you’ll be safe. If a trick-or-treat bag happens to be nearby, grab it quickly while your partner distracts him, maybe with a little dance or some dramatic gestures.
