Club Penguin’s Halloween Party in 2011 starting from October 20, 2011, and ending on November 3, 2011, was a hair-raising hit and home to the hilarious denizens of “Night of the Living Sled.” As this year’s source for all things funny and spooky, players were given a video of the play to watch. It was on a Halloween stage. Every part of this show, from prop characters to lights and music, differed from what was seen in its first performance. And it made an already wonderful addition special with creativity. At this time, the island had taken on an air of ghoulishness. Players could win privileged costumes and special items. The “Dark Chamber” was a particular feature, a maze that players slogged through to find treasures not otherwise available. All in all, with fun, uniqueness, and the traditional spirit of Halloween, it was a remarkably successful party for everyone involved.
