Halloween Across Second Life


It's the last week of October, and places across Second Life are getting darker and spookier as Halloween approaches. Gemma Cleanslate has been across various Halloween-themed places across the Grid. At the Spookydoo Halloween Market, you can get decorations to make you own place a little spooker as well. At the Spooktakulum Event, gacha lovers can get some thrills and chills while satisfying their shopping fix. At the Trick or Treat Lane, you can do more shopping while enjoying spooky sights while searching for occasional freebies. At "Scare Me Silly," you can do still more Halloween shopping for a good cause. And for those whom spooky isn't enough but want a blood n' guts Halloween, there's the Linden Halloween area.

Unfortunately for him, his alibi didn't quite match the evidence I had.
