Linden Lab Get Ready For Halloween

First of all, get well soon Lexie Linden. Linden Lab are gearing up for Halloween, with a series of new destination guide locations, new forum areas and blog posts. They started off with the graveyard smash with a series of posts about Zombies, one about Zombie games in Second Life and then they moved onto a post about Zombie community conversations ….There’s also a destination guide section just for Zombies!

 


Zombie Apocalypse – Bloodbath & Beyond

The Zombie Apocalypse is fun for the whole family — if your idea of fun is fighting for your life against zombies that have taken over the city and are terrorizing everyone. Come help save the day and kill the zombies before it’s too late. Get your free combat HUD and join interactive quests to fight zombies alone or with friends.

However Linden Lab, who have been known in the past to scare the living daylights out of residents at this time of year with tier price rises weren’t satisfied with Zombies eating our brains, they quickly moved into more familiar territory by opening a Vampire forum! Garlic necklace at the ready I poked my head in and found complaints, show your vamp look,  Lycans wanting to know where they should go and a request from Linden Lab for Vampire inspired machinima. There hasn’t been a spampire in sight so far!

 


Dark Dharma Haunted Manor

As if the crypt keeper floating around the garden wasn’t enough to give you the willies, once inside this dark and spooky haunted house, there’s plenty more to creep you out including a seance to take part in, spells to break, ghostly apparitions, and plenty of other scary activities.

However Linden Lab weren’t finished there, although they should fix their labels on themed blog posts to make it easier to link to them! There’s a best of SL Halloween series going on where we have already seen some guest posts featuring residents as well as some decent pictures.

Mad Pea games are also unveiling The Peatonville Mystery on October 28th:

The blog drives me a bit nuts because posts aren’t as in your face as I’d like them to be, however when it comes to Halloween, Linden Lab are making a decent fist of it as well as putting their own forums to good use, so this is good to see. I know some people won’t like it but I feel this is a step in the right direction. Obviously Linden Lab can’t please everyone when it comes to things like this.

There is however a lot going on, merchants selling their Halloween wares and people gearing up to party … I think!
