Oh boy! My favorite time of year is here again! A time when ghouls and goblins rule the night, I can watch The Monster Squad three times a week without feeling silly and no one has a problem with my wearing leopard-print tights to a party. (I rocked a homemade Kraven the Hunter costume this past weekend. Deal with it.)

Yes sir, I love me some Halloween. And like most awesomely major holidays, my MMOs usually help me celebrate in style. My paladin, for instance, finally snagged himself a set of Horseman's Reins this year. Sadly, Star Trek Online offers no such holiday merriment. So what's a forlorn fan of costume parties and pumpkin patches to do in STO? Fresh from the brain trust behind your beloved Captain's Log, consider these alternatives to tide you over until you go trick-or-treating.

While this One Shots is a bit late for the Halloween holiday, but it's still not too late to be enjoyed! We figured it would be nice to enjoy a look back at some World of Warcraft areas that many people have deserted in their dash through Northrend. Today's One Shots comes to us from our staff columnist, Craig Withers, who snapped this in the Horde outpost in Nagrand at the tail end of last month. Craig writes: [This] is a little more mundane, and is simply a shot of one of my characters turned into mini-Diablo during the Hallow's End event. Despite looking kind of evilly cute or cutely evil, he didn't have much going for him with no emote visuals or even a jumping animation.

If you've snagged some silly or fun screenshots of yourself during a recent holiday or server event, we'd love to see them! Just send those to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name, the game, and a quick description of what we're seeing. Your screenshots help us show off new and interesting lands here on One Shots (not to mention mean that we can quit digging through staff screenshot folders) so send yours in today!

Lord of the Rings Online is celebrating the season in its own way with Middle-earth's first annual Harvest Festival. Announced today, but starting on Friday, October 26th and running through November 11th, Tolkien lovers can enjoy a number of unique events.
