Is anyone else excited for halloween update! Bring on the halloween! Bring on the pumpkins! Bring on the autumn!
what you're seeing now is the usual theme. they took away the summer theme awhile ago. if you're sick of this theme, i dont know what to say.
Me! I can't wait for the Halloween update. It's my favorite holiday.
I don't have any Halloween decorations, and I can't wait to buy some. I'm not that much into decorations, but I do want the Halloween ones.
I'm hoping the update is tomorrow. It's October tomorrow, after all.
Bring on the autumn trees, the pumpkins carved like jack o' lanterns, the bats, the monster in the mine, the ghost bearing gifts!!!
I wonder if the town will be haunted. The fishing area has its ghost, the farm has the monster in the mine...what about the town?
I want a haunted house for the town!
When did Halloween start last year?
i love the idea of a haunted house. How about a ghost train ? :)
The Halloween theme is my favorite!! I can't wait to get the scary stuff out of storage...and create my spooky cemetery! :)
I hope there are new tombstones!
Oooh, a ghost train would be awesome. (Supposedly, there's one where I live. Abraham Lincoln's funeral train supposedly can be seen on April nights.)
And while I'm making demands....how about a new pet? A pure black cat for Halloween!
I must say that I am going to be disappointed with the fall theme... my understanding is that only 'natural' trees change colors.... I was too quick to chop all mine down.. wish I hadn't done that.
I wish we all can get the ghost ONCE per day regardless when you visit the lake (like the Wheel of Fortune), which means the counter won't restart each time you pop on it.
I hope they heard our complaints last year. Felt like punished chopping all of them down :(. Told my self to keep trees from the newly added land, but not many of them are left ;);).
Ive just had a quick flick through my screen shots Madge..... 20th October is when I took one of my Halloween garden, down on the farm. I'm an eager beaver & always decorate on the day they arrive. So I'm presuming I took the screen shot on the same day :confused:
Edit .......16th October was when the Halloween started last year.......also with this update came the announcement of the new global events ..... I can believe it's been running for nearly a year ��
The Halloween theme was triggered with an update that introduced Global Event (announcement here) and lasted till another update that introduced Winter theme (announcement here).
The recent incident seems to tell me that they find a way to activate/deactivate the theme without an update so it could be different this year, and won't be tied to an update anymore.
I hope they do it earlier than Oct. 16. Holiday themes are more fun before the holiday than after.
I not only cut down all my trees, I cut down the ones across the river, too. You can't even use the land over there. You get XP for cutting down trees. I thought you were supposed to cut them all down.
I did try to save the tree in the new farm areas that opened up, and in the town. I have cut some trees down accidentally, though. Still have some original trees, so I'm looking forward to fall colors.
Thanks for your trouble, Helen. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. I agree that sooner rather than later would be good and it should stop as soon as October draws to a close imo. I started playing this game in January this year and I was surprised that the Xmas theme carried on for so long after the event. I thought that was normal! :D
I'm absolutely agreeing with you all for the Fall/Halloween theme! I don't have any Halloween decorations because I started playing at the end of May. I would love to see what everybody else got to experience last year for the halloween theme. We got a little sneak peak a week ago, BUT they took it away even though most of us wanted to keep it! :( Let's keep our fingers crossed for it to start tomorrow. First day of October sounds perfect for this theme, it's been Fall for a couple weeks now! We had the summer theme for months! Puuhhh-leasssseee SP can we have start this theme tomorrow? 👻🎃🍁
I really hope they start it tomorrow! I started at the end of March this year so i missed halloween.I can't wait!😔 something was walking across my farm!it left footprints!maybe something escaped early?😜

I noticed the fall theme last week or the week before. It was weird, it was only live for a few hours. Long enough for me to notice the fog, change in animal clothes, change in Oak trees, and find a ghost in my fishing spot which gave me a decoration. Then poof gone. Anyone else see this?
Yes! If they can't code the voucher trees to display seasonal changes then offering themed ones to buy (hopefully for gold) would be a good compromise, I think. Plus, it would open up the opportunity to have seasonal areas on your farm, which would be neat!
I cleared all my land up to the expansion areas. I knew from the start I wanted to fully fence in my farm so the ones closest to the road had to go -- it wasn't until later I discovered you can't even place anything where they are -- and the others were just in the way. I wanted a blank canvas, I didn't want to have to design around something. Plus, I saw the trees available for vouchers, I figured I'd replace them where I wanted and it wouldn't be a big deal. Bah.
Even knowing what I know now... I'm probably going to clear the rest of my land. The trees in the expansion areas are so awkwardly placed (and dense) there's really no good way to work around them and my farm is getting cluttered, I really need the space. :\
I did save all the non-spruce trees in the town simply because they're not available anywhere, same with the pools.
When's Halloween coming I want it soon is the town going Halloween to
Where's the Halloween decorations etc. it's October!!!
They didn't roll out the Halloween theme until Oct. 16 last year. I hope they don't wait that long this year!
Yeah, I wish SC would already release the Halloween update, or at least give us an estimated date so that way I can quit anticipating over it. :/
Personally, 2 weeks of Halloween is plenty, but I REALLY want my "fall color" ASAP. I think we could all wait for Halloween if we had fall decorations to work with until Halloween "arrived" in the middle of the month.
This would be my ideal schedule:
Fall: arrive between Sept. 21 (official first day of fall) and Oct. 1; last until the first of December
Halloween: arrive 2 weeks before Halloween and disappear the day after
I would be fine with the Halloween decorations being available earlier for those who want to decorate now, and to give people with fewer savings time to buy stuff, but as far as the costumes on the animals and any special events go...2 weeks leading up to Halloween itself is enough. Now if we had decorations for celebrating el Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) we could keep it going until el 2 de noviembre.
I have a feeling this is going to be a bigger update than just holiday decorations. The area on the right of the farm screen has gotten MUCH bigger. You used to be able to see just a small fringe of trees. Now there's a forest.
I think we're getting more land expansions.
Why no more of the "ghosts" or very detailed unique GIFTS floating in the fishing zones any more SuperCell?
very excited for the deco on the farms and the farm animals.
How about if we could buy costumes for our pets? ( I know, put this sugg. In the ideas section)
MONKEYBARS
I think the ghost is coming back. It appeared during the brief Halloween preview we got a few days ago. (And gave me a coffin!)
I don't know why there aren't any floating gifts in the fishing area any more. Maybe that was a Christmas thing? Or just to get us to go to the fishing area, when it was new.
OH GOD!! And I have been selling my LEM :( :( :(
Well, that stops today! Ha ha ha
New land would be great -- my farm is feeling a bit squished with needed so many new machines, bees & bushes, plus MUCH higher fruit demands from the town :) More land would be a good thing
TBH , I'm quite happy to wait another 2wks for the Halloween decorations 👻🎃
As much as I ❤️ all the seasonal decorations that SC provide us with , IRL ( and yes I know this isn't RL) we in the UK only have our Halloween deco up for one evening...31st October.
If I'm honest, I'd love to keep them up for a little longer around my house as it takes me hours to put them up ( not to mention hours to carve 2 pumpkins ) only to be taking them down 24hrs later😥
But then again if I did keep them up longer , I'd probably have kids knocking at my door trick or treating , well into November 😜
Be patient my fellow farmers 😄 We all know how time flies when we're farming . The Halloween decorations will be here before we know it 🎃👻🎃👻🎃👻🎃👻
Here I thought I was finally going to be done with LEMs (only have 2 more blocks to open) and could start funneling them all to my husband.
I don't have an issue with holiday events lasting a month. That's a fairly common occurrence in other games I play. Besides, Halloween and Christmas are my favorite holidays so I never get sick of either.
They probably are going to last at least a month. The question is whether it's a month before the holiday, or a month after. ;)
I'd really rather see the holiday decorations go up a month early rather than hang around weeks after. Decorations are fun and exciting before the holiday, but just kind of tired afterwards.
Interesting that decorations are up one night only. I was going to school the other day and someone had already decorated with fake cobwebs on their bushes and porch. :)
But Helen I really had to comment because of trick or treating in the UK. My goodness. What is that like? Are there Cadburys given out? That sounds like Christmas and Halloween in one night! ;)
Oh and to make this on-topic, yes, bring on the Halloween decorations! I am itching to buy one of those candy buckets from last year. I also hope the pumpkins we grow get their jack-o-lantern faces again. That was fun. :)
The Halloween theme (+ decorations) will be up when the time is right! :)
Cheers,
Nick
LOL Nick. I love that vague answer. ;)
When the moon is in the second house and Jupiter aligns with Mars...is that when the update will come? lolol
Helen, we used to put all the decorations up in the living room because most of them were too fragile and dear to us to risk getting them stolen, or blown away in our fall storms. (We have a big one heading this way today BTW). Any way, we would drag them all off the mantle and cabinets and walls and put them on the porch in the late afternoon on October 31. Then when we ran out of candy, we would bring them back in and put them back in the totes to store for the next year.
Then something strange happened and our neighbors one street over started a tradition of going all out for Halloween. It would take them days to build and on Halloween, the streets would close, there would be parties in the street and the TV folks would show up. Kids would come in from all over and of course then we would get the stragglers who wanted more candy than several blocks could give. Our kids went there too. So the decorations got bigger and bigger and came out earlier than ever. We had one huge spooky blow up gazebo that manège to kill all the grass on the lawn. We sold that at the last garage sale. We have fewer decorations now and that's fine with me!
Last week the Halloween theme appeared on my farm for a few hours, the sheep were all white and the cows had hats, it disappeared pretty quickly! Did anyone else have this happen?
...[when] peace will guide the planet, and lo-ove will steer the stars!!"
We better all brush off our hippie costumes...aka the groovy clothes we've saved since the 60s! Can you picture the pigs with long hair and bell bottoms? Wait. Come to think of it, they've already got bell bottoms!
It is now past the first of October and STILL no Halloween! I know there are so many others like us that have been waiting patiently for the first of the month and hoping the switch to the Halloween theme would take place. So now, we are all left impatiently waiting for the transformaiton, LOL. I wish they would at least tell us when to expect the update so we wouldn't have to keep wondering. If you don't plan on adding the Halloween items until the middle of October PLEASE just put out an announcement and let us know Hay Day! We love you but we need our Halloween decorations and items!
I know you have to be tired of hearing the questions and I know so many of us are tired of asking you over and over...When is the Halloween theme coming back to Hay Day? We had a miniture teaser due to an "uh oh" moment during an update and that has only increased our appetite even more for our dressed up animals and amazing decorations. Many hoped the transformation would happen after the first of October but it is now the 5th and our Farms are still the same. Many of us have done our best "decorating" with dead trees and bushes (Yay, finally a use for them) and those lucky enough to have been around last year at Halloween have pulled out the old decorations but it is time to pull out the new stuff and let us get to decorating Hay Day! If you already know when Halloween will decend upon our beloved Hay Day would you please do us a favor and send out a message letting us know when that will be. That way we can go back to patiently anticipating the day of the Halloween update and stop impatiently searching all over the internet for the answer to this question as well as no longer having to ask you this same question over and over again on the Forums and Facebook. You already gave us our TRICK Hay Day with the dressed up animals teaser so please give us a TREAT and either let the transformation to Halloween happen or fill us in on WHEN it will happen. We love you Hay Day :-)
I do hope they get the message that it needs to be before Halloween and gone soon after. There's nothing quite so sad as halloween and Xmas decorations hanging on long after the event. We sometimes see houses with drippy icicle lights months after Xmas! Not a good look. :rolleyes:
I love it :)
Nick said when "the time is right" the update will be here. Plus I guess we need to hold our horses lol ;) We are just too excited for SC I guess.
Here's the thread:
http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...en-decorations
You know, maybe Nick's message is code and the date is hidden within the code? ;)
Taking "When the time is right", I can get tenth, eighth, eighteenth....
Maybe I oughta just be patient lol
just be patient, they will give us the update. it will happen so why worry? lol
Ha ha! I love this. Maybe we can do a Summer of Love theme next summer. Turn the truck into a VW bus. The townies can wear tie dye and bell-bottoms and the little sunglasses, and maybe some fringed vests. Get a real groovy opening theme when the game is opened...
I just love that song though. It's so cool. ;)
Yes, that makes more sense to me as well. We had the decorations up until mid-November last year. I think putting out the Halloween update now-ish makes more sense, but that's me.
I was hoping today would be the day, but I guess not. :p
Maybe it's not ready yet. Seems like SC often has problems with things not being ready when they hoped.
It's kind of that way in my office. Deadlines slip...
Any whispers yet on what the halloween event might be? I hope is has a Halloween dec as a prize.
last year was pumpkin pie, I hope it's not pumpkin soup this year as that precludes anyone under level 49 or maybe something completely different.
We haven't had a "guess the event" thread in a long time.
Pumpkin pie is the obvious choice, but since they did it last year, will they do it again?
I think you're right that it won't be pumpkin soup. Or candy. Too high-level.
Maybe popcorn?
I don't want to be patient! The day of the oops I got a little section all cornered off, put my nifty coffin in there, some dead trees & now just WAITING foe the actual release. I wake up every morning hoping today will be the day. I don't want to waIt any longer or be patient! 😤
I feel the same way as you. I wake up with hope that they have released it. I already made a Halloween area, and all it needs is the actual decorations. I wish they would go ahead and release it, or at least tell us an actual date so that way we can get an idea and to help my anticipation. 😐
I agree! I am tired oh "holding my horses"! My horses are ready for Halloween!
Mine, too! Rabble, rabble, rabble! Release the horses! Release the Halloween update!

Honey popcorn event? or any kind of popcorn...
I kind of remember participating in an event with popcorn when I started playing... couldn't help much because of real life issues...
I really hope they forget to enable the theme.
I really dislike the animals dressed up and all the other ♥♥♥♥.
An option to disable the theme would be great!!
The ones that like it can keep it on, me (and plenty others) can turn it off.
I'm playing much less during those themes, because I just dislike the looks of them.
I even stopped almost completely .............because I started to realize that I didn't mis Hay Day at all.......
I hope it's not honey popcorn, I have have an axe shortages it is.
Yeah, I hope it is not that either. I hope they still stick with pumpkin pie because lower levels would be able to participate in it. Hopefully, the Halloween update will come out soon. I can't stand the anticipation of waiting. I wish Supercell would tell us a date so we can be prepared. :D
One of my neighbors came up with a brilliant idea.
There's a monster in the mine and a ghost in the fishing area. We needed a haunted house in the town. With an axe murderer. And axe murderer who drops axes in his wake.
It's 23 days til Halloween. When does supercell plan to roll out the Halloween theme...on Halloween day?!? On my farm, as in real life, the holiday decorations come down the day after. I don't want Halloween costumes on my animals until Christmas (frankly, I don't want costumes on my animals at all but I know we have no choice). Why don't you make the Halloween decorations available no later than October 1st and let people decide when they want to purchase them. And for heavens sake, take the costumes off of the animals within a day or two after Halloween! It's the push of a button, supercell. Stop dragging your feet. If we are getting seasonal decorations then give us a chance to enjoy them DURING the season!!! This is aggrivating.
i remember during easter they had the event on the weekend itself and if we had reached the goal, we would have gotten the easter basket AFTER easter since the event ended on the following monday. kinda glad we didnt make it.
Here are two recent threads from the first page ;):)
http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...d-our-TREAT%21
http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...6681-New-theme
I can't wait! I want to buy the special fence to use all year! Other players have it, and I'm jealous:rolleyes:
and the native trees changing colors!what a bummer! I didn't learn about them till I had only a couple expansions left, and I tried to save them all but, sigh, accidents will happen! And every time I made that oops mistake, my heart sunk!
I really wish SC would do something.... Anything.... I've read so many different ideas on how to fix the problem(?) I won't elaborate!
bring it on!
boo!
Maybe I'm beating a dead horse (sorry), but I need to make SuperCell aware of an important fact. And I'm sure there are others who are planning on doing the same thing.:)
Last year, I regretfully bought only one Halloween decoration (does any one see where this is going:confused:?). After 12 months of viewing other farms and coveting the black fences, the time has finally arrived! :rolleyes:
Every day since October 1st I wake up and hope. Sort of the same feeling on Christmas morning when I was a kid, lol! And then I wait yet another day. 😳
Last year the theme started around mid month, and I expect SC plans on doing the same thing. But here's the deal- I am ready to spend cold hard cash to buy decorations. So it's a waiting game. I wait for a week. SuperCell waits for my money.😴
HAY SUPERCELL- do you want my money or not? I might be back on unemployment again and unable to spend on luxuries next week!😞
so if you want a ton of cash, I would release the Halloween update ASAP if I were you!😈
Please...no Halloween theme until Oct 31st. Halloween is one night, not one month or even a weekend. Let us not try to keep up with the Simpsons, the Joneses, the Kardashians or the Devil, nor lower the entire tone of the internet with our paganistic revelries.
I hope there are lots of Halloween deco items for sale. I had just started playing last year when it came around, and I was still trying to decipher "the rules." I never played a game so fun and with so few "rules". It was infuriating at first, I made a lot of mistakes. So I didn't buy but 2 things. Gonna go all out this year (tee hee).
After a few months I found the forum, and boy did my knowledge expand mightily! I love the guides, the help with strategies, the collected wisdom of those who've been playing a really long time.
People in my neighborhood have gotten coffins but I haven't yet
There was a mistake. The Halloween theme was accidentally released for a few hours last month. If you played during those few hours, you could get the coffin from the ghost in the fishing area.
Some people may also have it from last year.
You'll get one eventually. It seems the ghost gives coffins to players who don't have them yet, and other gifts (nails, etc.) to players who already have one. You just have to wait for SC to roll out the Halloween theme for real.
By that logic Christmas is also one day, so let's not bother having anything Christmassy except on Dec. 25th.
Holiday events in other online games (not just mobile ones) typically last the full month they occur in, so this is not unusual or an unreasonable request. Personally, Halloween is my second favorite holiday after Christmas, so they could have the event go on from September to December for all I care. :P
It was a TRUE Global event last Halloween, like collecting a certain number of pumpkin pies
Wait!........ Last year they did a super cool "ghost" graphic in the fish area! When you tapped it (like tapping to open those red toolboxes) you rec'd one coffin only. Then as the theme continued you could still tap the ghost and receive a random prize at least one time per day until the theme had gone away in an update.
Will we we get those "ghosts" in the fish area this year Meonhoc?
Monkeybars:rolleyes:
Is there any word of when the Halloween decorations are coming, like a day? I am getting tired of waiting.:(
If the date is the same as last year, then it will be a week today - let's hope its a little earlier👻👻👻👻👻
I wish they would spookify the wheel of fortune, giving everyone a chance at a Halloween dec, even those who don't have the diamonds to splash.
and that's the thing... These themes are not really just Christmas or Halloween themes, but winter and autumn themes.. That's why they last longer than the included holidays within the season... You can take down your decorations and still have snow, or red leafed trees etc... For the rest of the season
I am so excited for Halloween!..but where is the update October is almost over! Does anyone got any information on when it's taking place? :)
I am almost sure , let's say 90% it starts next week.
https://www.facebook.com/HayDayOffic...type=1&theater
Why is everything sweet? Where's the savory? :P
Anyone seen or heard anything yet? I haven't. Was it just a joke?
Come on supercell bring on Halloween.
The Halloween theme will be enabled when the time is right! :)
Cheers,
Nick
When is the right time? The day before? :confused:HEy, I'm a procrastinator but I've had my decorations up for a week (at home, that is).
By the way, thanks to forum members for great idea of using dead trees for Halloween decorations! I did just that because I only bought the casket last year.
Hopefully, it will have the fall tree colors as well as Halloween decorations. Last year that was just beautiful! And while we are talking about seasons, I hope you have the snowfall again this winter.
http://forum.supercell.net/webkit-fa...425a2/imagepng
My farm is ready. I decorated with the items from last year. Hopefully SC also brings back the hen ghost in the fishing area.
