A stroll down Halloweens past!

Hey guys, it’s Rainbow Dash here, and I’m sorry I haven’t gotten a chance to post very often lately. I am feeling much better, thanks to those of you who emailed me and such :). Lately I’ve been going in and out of places, and busy with some high school stuff if I get a chance to go to school for prolonged stretches of time; but enough about me.

The creators gave us a short and sweet reminder that Halloween’s getting pretty close, and I’m sure they’ve given us much already. It’s scare season, again! What better way to celebrate Halloween than by visiting the first Halloween based adventure that the creators unveiled… Haunted House!

This short quest will lead you through many puzzles and item hunts in order to solve the mystery of the old and worn down house. Trust me, there’s a really cool ending to it to match the spirit of Halloween.

Pick up Haunted House at the Poptropica Store today! You can enjoy old times again, or try it out for the first time if you haven’t played it before. So if you’re brave enough, go in and find out the truth. I promise you won’t be disappointed. If you need help, the Island Help page lists a guide, video, and info page for the Haunted House.

I know I’m certainly in the mood for Halloween :D. So what gets you in the mood for the season? I remember getting about a truckload of candy…then losing it to my pets a day later…did you know that the holiday was originally Hallow’s Eve? Western traditions were inspired by American and Medieval folklore such as Irvington’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, a book I’m currently reading. I guess you could say my favorite part about it would have to be “teenage witches” xD. Share your thoughts below.

RD out, have a nice day.

For all you hardcore electronic gadget users out there, you’ll be pleased to know that Poptropica has teamed up with SkinIt.com! (Thanks for the news update, Pufflemon.)

Skinit sells decorative skins for all kinds of devices, like laptops, cell phones, music players, and lots more. Did I mention calculators, too? 😛

🙂 Buy ’em now! 🙂

At $14.95 US dollars each, they may seem a little expensive, but it may be well worth it to show off your love for Poptropica! On the left image below is a laptop with its cover decorated with the awesome Shark Tooth Island scene, and over on the right side is a display of an iPod with Ned Noodlehead’s Super Power Island comic shop!

 And here’s a young Aztec warrior on the Time Tangled Island skin:

Remember, buying merchandise products from Poptropica is going to help keep the game running! 🙂

The Long-awaited Halloween Costume Contest Results! …plus an ad.

Smockers

This is it.  Hopefully, the moment you’ve all been waiting for is here!  Judges Deathstalker/Seph (the MYSTERY judge) and I carefully went through all 114 entries — yes, you read that right; 114 entries 😛 — and narrowed down the costumes until we had come to an agreement on 4 runner-ups and 1 overall winner.  Of course, it’s very hard to select only 5 costumes when there are so many entries for pick.  Especially since we were inundated with contending costumes! I’d like to start off with a round of applause for all of the costumes. *applause* This is sort of a cliché, but you all deserve a pat on the back for a job well done! Everybody pat their back. I SAID TO PAT YOUR BACK! Good. Now, for the runner-ups… Continue reading “The Long-awaited Halloween Costume Contest Results! …plus an ad.” →

Wow. I’m getting really scared ’bout this haunted house thing (NOT!!). So in the amazing pic and sneak-peek-kinda-thing, we see what is to be The much awaited Deadly Haunted House, and a poor little angel crying. Poor angel, I think the Devil Himself got her. I really am getting impatient with these people. CURSE YOU, CREATORS!!! GOD, HURRY UP!! Hopefully, The Creators are gonna make a giant Halloween bash. I’m just totally excited about Halloween. Though I haven’t customized my Poptropica character (Yet), I’m real excited about Halloween. Like I said, It would be cool if the Creators made a  Halloween Par– HEY, WHY DON’T WE MAKE ONE!! Lol, I’m kidding. It wouldn’t really be possible. The multiplayer rooms have different servers (Though, looking at the number of readers the PHB has, it wouldn’t really matter), and A multiverse has a limit of people it can carry. Oh well, Creators, If you are reading my post, MAKE THE PARTY PLACE!! Also, My elder brother Aldraz, has entered the Web!! He’s made a blog which you can view over here. He’s also made an account on the PHF. Unfortunately, he won’t be as active as me. He’s in 10th grade, and he’s darn busy.

Thanks to MuddyDragon for updating us on this piece of news!

So I come to the end of this post. We are always waiting for Halloween to come, and we may even customize the PHB for Halloween.

OFF TOPIC UPDATE: This is A PHB Gravatar MILESTONE!! All of the PHB Staff members have changed their gravatars to non-poptropica Avatars!! Hooray!! Hijuyo has changed theirs to a juicebox-and-cheeseball pic, Smockers has a rock cantaloupe saying “Smockers”, Codien has his same splatter kinda thing, I have the same chibi thing (I’m Gonna CHANGE it!), GE has a manga kinda thing..  And motion has that smirkin’ human.

Saying Good By, And Also wondering why on earth Poptropica this text is in Blue Font,

The Halloween Festivities Are Already Beginning?

Smockers

Note: By the way, don’t forget to check out 2 very interesting, Halloween-related posts! One by Hijuyo about the many peculiar happenings in the world of Poptropica… and another by Golden Eagle about the many things that the creators are doing for the Halloween celebration! I COMMANDETH YOU TO GO FORTH AND READETH THE ARTICLES!

Note 2: GE asked me to say that she won’t be here mostly for 3 1/2 months due to her need to study for the SATs. 😦 (She is not leaving the PHB or the PHF permanently.) Of course, everybody is sad, but I hope everybody wishes her luck! She deserves it. Everybody here will miss you, GE! Have fun! ;D

Note 3: Added a new rule that might concern a few.

Note 4: Just added a MUST-READ RULE that I accidentally left out! PLEASE READ TO ENSURE THAT YOUR COSTUME WILL BE VALID FOR JUDGING!

Note 5: Oh my, I promise this is the last time I ever update this post. x) Maybe. Anyway, check out the newly released October issue of the Poptropican’s 911! The scariest month of the year is here, and you should get in the know about what’s happening and what happened!

Note 6: The contest has ended. No further submissions will be accepted. Comments are now closed. No exceptions. I hope all of you enjoyed entering the contest; judging will start. Results will hopefully surface around the weekend time. Thanks for all of the entries, too! I roughly counted a whopping 114 costumes entered. Thanks again.

The surprise (that I may have divulged to some of you) is here! I’ve been working on the railroad PHB for almost a year now; my anniversary is in 4 days actually. 🙂 The ride has been fun the whole time, and I knew I couldn’t bask in the happiness alone. My only intent to work for the PHB has always been to become the most popular Poptropican in the world please the viewers and readers as much as possible. That is why the PHB is having the first EVER… Continue reading “The Halloween Festivities Are Already Beginning?” →
