Due to bugs the 2010 Halloween events were not working properly. As a result SOE decided to have the events return.

"Haunting of Norrath Halloween Events Returning 11/22 – 11/30"

"Greetings!"

"The Haunting of Norrath event will automatically end on November 7th. However, due to the issues experienced, the EQ team has decided to return the Haunting of Norrath over the period of November 22nd to November 30th."

2011
SOE announces that it will run until November 7 in 2011. It appears that there are no new quests for Halloween 2011.

2012
For 2012, it has a new name, Harvester's Haunt, and it is expected to run from October 19th to November 7th.

In celebration of Harvester's Haunt, look for new items and ornamentations on creatures throughout Norrath.

 * Allakhazam's list of Halloween quests

Note: Some of the events did not work if you were over level 100: There was a level 100 limit on the script that determined which rock piles you could dig up, as well some of Edmund Strangeways's dialogues. This is now fixed, but since the Nights of the Dead events run until 11/05, it's likely this fix won't be seen until next year. However, they could be completed if you shroud down.
