Hallowe'en Fun @ Deception

With so many Halloween events going on, it's hard to know what will be worth visiting.
I would like to recommend a small event at one of my favorite regions: Deception, a tribute region based on the Deception television series. 
Besides having a Halloween Market, there is a Skeleton Hunt and a Creepy Carnival with interactive games and rides. Accept the hud, find the bones and win some prizes. What could be easier? Hint: it isn't that easy!

I accepted the hunt hud and followed the blood trail and the hint notes until I stumbled across the Carnival. I threw darts at balloons till I won a prize and spent an inordinate amount of time playing both claw machines (something I'm addicted to in RL). I had a great time even if I didn't finish the hunt! The hunt area is beautifully landscaped and decorated and the carnival is creepy without resorting to jump scares or buckets of blood.

  • Wearing a Wrap Dress by Alter *, which comes in 5 colors sold separately or in a Fatpack 
  • My necklace and earrings are from Heartsdale Jewelry *. They come in silver or gold with 8 stone textures 
  • You'll find these and many more outfits and accessories @ Designer Showcase. This round ends the 25th so don't miss it!

Day of the Dead


One of my favorite things to do at this time of year is a visit to Dia De Muertos in SL
In fact, the first public picture of my avatar back in the day was taken at one of the first Dia de los Muertos events. 


The observance of El Dia de los Muertos (the Day of the Dead) in Mexico and Central America dates from pre-Columbian times. It is believed that this is the time when those who have passed away return to earth to visit with their families and friends. This occasion, on November 1 and 2, ceremonially and festively honors those who have died, and brings focus to the other aspects of the life cycle: fertility and life for the future.

  • This dress from I.M.Collection with its combination of lace bodice and a midcalf solid skirt reminds me of a modern Katerina dress. Choose from a dozen colors in the hud. You'll find this lovely dress @ Sense *
  • The shoes are from Ghee. They, too, come with a dozen colors in the hud. You'll find them for 50% off @ Fashion Essentials **

Headdress ~ Lode Morning Glory on MP

[QE] Designs always offers a variety of colors/textures for everything they sell. It seems very appropriate that [QE] is doing the Modify Event, where EVERYTHING is designed to be changed. You'll find clothing, household goods and Mods for a variety of furries and other creatures at this huge event.

  
The [QE] special for Modify is this very adaptable outfit that offers 12 colors for each section and works beautifully as a Faery Dress, a Club Outfit or as the special Skully Dress featuring the bones. The Boots offer the same variety of colors as the dress. 


Showing just a few of the possibilities with this set. I'm sure you'll have as much fun playing with it as I did!
