The Haunting of Norrath is Here!

(October 24th through November 7th)

October 31st marks All Hallows' Eve, the night when spirits rise at night and begging for treats is deemed appropriate. Whether you celebrate this spooky holiday or not, it is the perfect excuse for dressing up in strange clothing, telling scary stories, decorating your house, bobbing for apples, and eating lots and lots of yummy candy.

Here are some Halloween Activities you can participate for EverQuest this season:

Fresh Hauntings!

 The Gravedigger
The Gravedigger in the Plane of Knowledge has a predilection for flesh—tattooed flesh. He has been digging graves for most of his life, all over Norrath, and he has amassed a collection of tattooed skin patches from corpses. But his collection is incomplete. He is seeking adventurers to help him with his obsession.
