Mad King Thorn, Daniel Frozenwind & Mad Queen Malafide present: The Official Website: TheHorrorween THE 16TH KING AND QUEEN'S HORRORWEEN (2021) The Haunted Carnival 🦇 ABOUT Come one - come all to The 16th King and Queen's Horrorween! Tyria's oldest community event returns to the Guild Wars franchise with a Carnival of Fright for its ominous 16th anniversary. The Snowman King on behalf of her majesty Mad Queen Malafide cordially invites you all to attend this Spooktacular Halloween adventure! Featuring the famous costume contest, live in-game bands, a dedicated Discord channel where you can interact with our staff and listen to Halloween music and fan favourite activities you have all come to know and love! It is not to be missed, we bring frights and delights! 🦴PLOT FOR 2021 Ancient magic is stirring once more in the port-city of Lion's Arch . The chill autumn wind brings with it the tidings of The Mad Realm. As Mad King Thorn exerts his influence once more*, the concentrated madness, mischief and merriment has brought a strange visitor. An ancient Awakened Ringmaster has dared to show his face in Kryta, but to what end? He brings an ectoplasmic host that no longer swear fealty to Palawa, they seek to bring a haunted Carnival back to life. Aurene's Champion and allies are summoned to investigate. Upon arrival Tyrian's can no longer leave Lion's Arch, it seems they must aid the Ringmaster in breaking the curse. This can only be done by taking part in his ghoulish attractions before the witching hour arrives and Halloween reaches it's zenith. Join Frozenwind & Malafide as they visit the Freak Show and marvel at the horrendous bearded Mesmer, do you dare ride the terrifying Rollerghoster? Be wary of the Mistfortune Teller, and remember - The Haunted Carnival is full of many more terrifying attractions! *He may kill you in the process. 🎃 A MESSAGE FROM THE MAD KING Ghoulish clowns rise from the grave. Dressed half a lunatic, half a knave. As undead jugglers emerge from the ground, The air fills with a most unnerving sound. A lunatic melody is in the air. It heralds a chilling and unusual fair. From the big top the ringmaster beckons. You are shrouded in fog in a matter of seconds. Whisked away from the safety of the Arch. As a feeling of dread seems to make your lips parch. But fear not dear Tyrians, young and old. A Snowman King arrives, cheerful and bold. By his side is Malafide, Queen supreme. To safely guide you through this year’s Horrorween! _______________________________________________ Historical Poem: Although Halloween has lain dormant, there comes a time. When revellers awaken, and hear the bell chime. Ghouls stir in patchwork beds and skeletons arise from dusty tombs. Drawn by the Horror, this magic - the greatest of boons. The Mad Monarch Thorn, calls to one and all. Away from Palawa, and the tar of his thrall. With him stands Malafide, Queen supreme. And an Old Snowman, a merry one indeed. They wait for you to arrive, beneath the cold Mad Moon. For the 16th tradition - is bound to begin soon. So linger a while, under the pale moonlight. The Horrorween is here, it's time to fright and delight! 🕸️Sponsoring Guild(s) Guardian's of the Dutch [GOTD] for donating the vast majority of event prizes & hosting event Discord.
