And the tombstones quake
Spooks come out for a singing wake
Happy haunts materialize
And begin to vocalize
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize š»

Trick or Treating
š¶ Trick or Treat
Trick or Treat
Trick or Treat for Halloween š¶
Throughout the month of October our spooky staff will be hosting trick or treat events. There will be 'trick or treat' stations scattered all throughout the kingdom where guests are welcome to line up to see if they'll be receiving a treat... or a trick! There are some very important rules & instructions to keep in mind while trick or treating:
1. Players can only receive 3 pins per event. Once a player wins 3 pins they will no longer be allowed to participate.
2. Players can only queue when a staff member is sitting in the station. Players cannot wait in a station queue for a staff member to appear.
3. Players may only queue once per station. Once the staff member at that station leaves, players can re-queue if a different staff member occupies that station.
And of course we all want treats, right? So, please keep the following rules for the Trick or Treat Station Game in mind while participating:
1. Once you reach the front of the station queue, the staff member will tell you to spin the generator once.
2. If you spin a 4, 5, or 6 you will get to choose a Villainous Icon Pin! After being awarded your pin, you will be booted from the room.
3. If you spin a 1, 2, OR 3* you will add one point to the staff memberās scoreboard and then be booted from the room with no prize.
4. If the staff memberās scoreboard gets five points, they will disappear from the room and no more pins will be traded! Players may leave the line queue and search the kingdom for another staff member.
*changes to the rules reflecting the Villainous curses taking over The Trick or Treating
