The King and Queen's Horrorween trailer
On this most "chilly" Halloween...



It's nearly that time of the year again, when the corpses rattle restlessly in their caskets, when the ghouls sound a foul cry against the dark and cloudy midnight sky. It's nearly that time of the year when my husband rises from the Underworld to spread terror and laughter among the people of Tyria. He has spent the last couple of long cold nights trying to think up a new repertoir of fiendish jokes and it has left him screaming mad, yelling in the middle of the night and impatiently walking the halls of the frozen palace over and over again. While the King prepares in his own way for the event, the Queen is delighted to announce an alliance between herself and the master of events, Daniel Frozenwind. Yes it was the always cheerful party animal himself that approached the Queen and asked her if she would like to work together for this frightful occasion. Sensing a unique opportunity to make this the most memorable Halloween in the history of Tyria, the Queen thankfully agreed. More details will be released soon. So get your pumpkin crowns ready. It is almost time for an event that will be to DIE for. Ahahahaha! ~ Mad Queen Malafide



Thats right! this events going to be of the finest quality! gifts are to be won
spooks are to be had!, beware the wicker man, and bring your friends! this is NOT an event you will want to miss in a hurry!, The theme of course is Halloween, with a twist but what could that be?

Key Activities


The Wicker Ritual

A very long time ago, the druids of the Maguuma had a ritual of autumn, gathering the dead wood of the high plains and out skirts of there jungle they would bind it together in the form of a human, and offer the effigy to Melandru for renewal, thus the ash would rain down on there beloved jungle and provide nutrition. Much time has passed and the ritual has lost its meaning, constructing the wicker man during the time of autumn while the Monarch of Madness corrupting presence is at hand had adverse effects on the worshipers of Melandru and so the practise of constructing wicker men ceased for a time. Until a certain Queen had ideas of her own... How do YOU corrupt a snowman?



The Nights of the Minipets

This event is run by Bladeradio, it consists of giving away 400 minipets over three days (30th 31st and 1st) along side our event.

It will be in Lions Arch International 1 on those days.

List of Minipets currently

Trick or Treat Challenge

This is a costume contest of Ghastly proportions! DO YOU have the best costume?

Things the Judges will look for:
  • Scare factor
  • Theme i.e of a certain monster.
  • Orginality
  • Effort

Prizes to be won include an undedicated Bone dragon, 100k and more!

Malafides Famous Joke Contest

Every year Mad Queen Malafide holds a contest for the best related Guild Wars Jokes in Tyria! Sadly Thorn is running out of ideas, if you have that "killer" Joke at the event, you might just find yourself with an undedicated Bone Dragon.

Assortment of key activities are still hidden

A blast from the past

Does anyone remember the pumpkin bobing of 2005? When the graphics of the Lions Arch water made your body invisible but your pumpkin crown would float on the water when you used /sit ?

Im bringing that old tradition back YES I AM! Player will be rewarded for participating, you must respect your elders

Shortly my Expert Text-mod Staff member , Solo Loves Cake will be realeasing two unique tonics at my request:

Hey Daniel ~
BladeRadio agreed to donate to the [Rain] Alliance Halloween Video competition in exchange we are making their Halloween video and since you are working closely with them I'm guessing we will have footage that will be helpful for the vid u plan to make -let me know if later you end up needing extra footage cuz u know I'll be filming u :P
