Halloween event

Hey, it's that month again... Is the Halloween event going to run again this year?

If so, would it be possible to mix up the boss rewards a touch? The event deco house has so many interesting options but only a few of them are enabled as rewards... personally I have enough gleaming altars and gory bath tubs to last 2 lifetimes...

FYI Maximillian just gave me a quest, but I can't enter the dungeon to complete it...

FYI: I think the dungeon has a 5 min stay logged-in delay after logging out. I did a round this morning before work, and it was taking too long to get all the demons so, I just killed everything around me then logged out and closed UO. When I got back about 3 hours later and rebooted UO and logged in and was a ghost and body gone... didn't realize/forgot it was a thing in the dungeon you could be killed after logging out.

Observation - that black rider (one of 2 bosses not throwing sigils) ... when he dies leaves skeletal steel.
Almost like Master of Arts leaves a mule.

Unfortunately one cannot tame it because taming is not allowed in that room.
So .. what is a purpose of leaving that steed ?

Strage thing killing takes me 4 times longer than Shadow of Benedict but it drops only 2k gp and some garbage items.

There are actually 3 unused bosses in the Halloween dungeon that were planned on being coded into the event however we lost that +G before that could happen. The is not actually a point to killing them as the time to kill them compared to gold/loot is too low. The headless rider or whatever the one that is riding a horse you cant tame is just a base of some other monsters found on the shard so by default it has a mount (think its a shire horse) it's just buffed up a bit.
