Happy Halloween, Terrafrostians!
For those who plan to give out or get candy, we wish you a fun and safe Halloween! If anyone is planning to stay indoors, we may have some ways you can spend the long, spooky night.
All Halloween festivities are slowly coming to an end, and today is your last chance to join in on the hauntings! The Halloween Traptur is running out of coffins for Grave Digger, Trick-or-Treat is coming to an end, and Shopkeepers are running out of Goodie Bags. Even the ghosts in the Haunted House are getting ready to scare you away for good. At 23:59:59, these features will be closed until next year, and the Haunted House will resume letting brave visitors in every 6 hours. If you planned an evening inside, make sure to visit each of these activities before they close!
Goodie Bags are now openable! Make sure to grab a few before Shopkeepers run out for good. As a thank you for being so patient, the first Goodie Bag you open will contain a Halloween Snow Jar! This special prize will only be available on October 31st. Enjoy the last of Halloween, and always remember to be safe!

With the recent increase in the "generosity" of Grave Digger, the gaggle of ghouls and spectral spooks that roam the Haunted House have decided they need a few more... willing participants as well. With Halloween just a day away, they have decided that the Haunted House is going to join the fun! They're opening their doors every 30 minutes to all visitors brave enough to venture inside. Squeeze in as many trips as you can; you have until October 31st!
It seems those pesky ghosts have been collecting some new Items. With each visit, you now have a chance to receive Costume Parts and a Spider-Filled Cardboard Box for your Jigsaw Puzzles! If you're really lucky, you just might happen to walk away with a Supernatural Present tucked under your arm. What do you think is lurking inside that sinister-looking box?
Now that the Haunted House runs every 30 minutes, all the regular prizes are popping up more often, including the Halloween Snow Jar! So, what are you waiting for? Head down to the Haunted House and test your wits! I'm sure those inside are dying to meet you.

Oh, new Requests!
Check out these two most recently completed Requests! A spiffy new Hidden Avatar, Stamp Enthusiast, requested by @Cowpro, is available for all of you Stamp collectors! Can you figure out how to earn it?
Of course, this fanciful Fairy Makoat Plushie was requested by @Nexinhah! This adorable new Plushie can be found restocking in Plushie Mania. Who wouldn't want to get their paws, hooves, or feathers on something like this?

In a strange turn of events, an excessive amount of coffins are occupying this poor Traptur's lawn. Luckily, he has decided to add them to Grave Digger! From now until October 31, games will be run every 15 minutes instead of 30. If you have trouble catching a game, now is your chance! Every coffin you break open is one less coffin the Halloween Traptur has to bury.
Guess I'll have to dress up for this one.
Now that Grave Digger is running more often, you may have an easier time finding the solution to this new Hidden Avatar, Master of Disguise! If you have what it takes to find the solution, you deserve the right to be showered in praise. Good luck, and try to stay out of other Pet's closets.

Knowing darkness lies ahead, a brand new colour of Krittle has made its way into Terrafrost! Scuttling out of the shadows, these Halloween Krittles have started to set up their stickiest webs to catch any candy that clumsy Pets might drop while out Trick-or-Treating!
Don't be scared!
If you happen to have a Pet that wants to get a new leg (or eight) on life, Gabrielle at the Snow Jar Igloo has just what you need. She's now stocking the new Halloween Krittle Morphing Potion in her shop until October 31st. If you can't wait another second, head down to the I.C.E Shop and purchase one for 500 IceCash(450 IceCash for Gold Members) until the end of the month. Happy haunting!
Is it getting chilly?
After seeing the Krittles stalking in the shadows, Shopkeepers all over Terrafrost have decided to stock Supernatural Presents to protect their stock and keep those sneaky Krittles happy. If you want a few for yourself, you have to be quick! They will only be stocking until October 31st, so grab as many as you can!
For all the Chatter Bugs out there, make sure to take another look at the Forum Rules. All current rules have received an update, so make sure to read over them again to prevent any rule breaking. Remember! Forum Rules can be found as stickied topics in each Forum section.

As some of you may have noticed, IcePets has been experiencing some problems lately. Due to these problems, the Anniversary Sale will be extended! The new end date will be October 24th at 11:59:59 PM IST. For all of you last minute shoppers, don't forget to purchase your Item Requests, Hidden Avatars, Custom Avatars, Ice Cash, Gold Accounts, and Golden Touch Items before the sales ends!
After spending a few hours searching for the source of the site's problems, we have found...
Better hide anything that uses electricity!
This pesky critter hiding in our code! This Novyn was trying to make its way to Terrafrost, but ended up causing some downtime for the site. They are very sorry for causing us trouble. Perhaps you have the heart to let one into your home?
Eager to see what Terrafrost has to offer, the Tech Novyn is already zapping all over the place. Any Novyn interested in becoming one of these fantastic beasts is simply one Tech Snow Jar away! If another Pet of yours would like to become one of these tricky beasts, run down to the I.C.E Shop and purchase a Tech Novyn Morphing Potion for 500 IceCash (450 IceCash if you're a Gold Member). Make sure to hurry, as it will only be stocking until October 31st! Once it's removed, you will only be able to find it in the Snow Jar Igloo! Good luck keeping your new Pet happy and glitch free!

What is something anyone can wear, but not everyone chooses to? The masses wear it around a certain time of year, but it can be worn year-round. There is no age restriction, but those who are younger tend to be seen in this more.
If you guessed 'costume' to the riddle above, then you are absolutely correct! What is Halloween without some costumes for us to wear? Surely some newer Items can be put together to form a costume... right?
If you head on over to the Jigsaw Puzzles feature, you can see the new Costume Box! Throw all of your costume Items into this Costume Box and see what you can make with them!

It's here! Another month has gone by, which means it's time for another Recode Preview, this time featuring Quests.
To start, here's a sneak preview of how the new Quests will look! Quests have been overhauled to look nicer, work more efficiently, and be more unique. As you can see in the screenshot above, we've added new difficulty levels to some of our Quests. This will mean different difficulties could have new rewards, higher IcePoint prizes, or even additional Quest Points! With this change, we can also customize each Quest completely.
Once you begin a Quest, you will be met with a page similar to this, listing out the Items you need to retrieve. We've introduced a Search Shops button that will let you automatically take you to the Shops Search page for that Item. This can be quickly opened in a new tab or window, for faster Questing!
Another update we wanted to make was more involved names, stories, and personalities for our NPCs. Here you can see that we've revamped an old face. No more "poor Alien dude", we've given Neil a name and personality!
There will also be a Statistics Page to keep track of how many times you've successfully completed a Quest, failed a Quest, or abandoned one. There will be other interesting statistics to review as well!
That's it for this month's Recode Preview. Remember, we love hearing your Ideas and Suggestions, so please let us hear your opinions. Stay tuned for what exciting new things will be revealed next month!

Happy Birthday, IcePets!
Today is the day we celebrate the 7th year IcePets has been online. Are you one of our oldest members? Perhaps the newest one? Feel free to share some of your fond memories below in the comments! We are delighted to see so many of you sticking with us through the years. To thank you for your continued support, some discounts will be held until October 22nd, 11:59:59 PM IST.
Hmm, should I sell it or spend it?
First, we'd like to reveal the lucky winners of the IceCash giveaway. Each winner listed below will receive a 500 IceCash Coin. Please give a great big round of applause for the following users...
For everyone else, IcePets will be holding special discounts all over the site!
Time for a shopping spree!
To start off, a certain wealthy Baby Traptur friend has been feeling particularly generous lately. He wanted to let you know that Items in the Golden Touch are 25% off for a short time! Hustle on down and purchase anything your heart desires before his generosity runs out.
More IceCash?
That Baby Traptur isn't the only one feeling generous. That's right, if you purchase Ice Cash, you will receive a 50% bonus and double the Treasure Chests! You heard it here first, all purchases of Ice Cash will include 50% more Ice Cash and double the amount of Treasure Chests! Please be aware you will not see the extra Ice Cash, but it will be awarded to you upon completion of your purchase. Speed on over to The Support Page and buy as many as you can!
Are you a Gold Member yet?
There's still more to come! Gold Accounts have received a few nifty bonuses. If you purchase a 6 months, you receive a month of Gold Account for free! If you choose to opt into 12 months, you'll receive an extra 2 months at no additional cost! Gold Accounts include great benefits, such as an extra 10% discount on I.C.E Shop purchases, an increased inventory limit, access to the Big Red Button, and many more! Take a look at our Gold Account Support Page for a list of all the benefits, and prices.
Oh! I have the perfect idea.
Last but not least, Requests are receiving a slight discount! Now you can purchase a new Item to be made for even less than before. This also applies to Item Bundles, Hidden Avatars and Custom Avatars! If you've always had a great idea for something to add to IcePets but are always short a few dollars, now is your chance! Head over to the Requests Page to send in your order now!
Remember, enjoy the festivities while they last, because all of this will end on October 22nd, 11:59:59 PM IST.

Looks like resident Terrafrostians aren't the only ones getting into the Halloween spirit! After seeing how much fun everyone is having with trick-or-treating, Shopkeepers all over Terrafrost have decided to give out their own goodies during this spooky season!
Dang! Can't open these until Halloween.
You may want to pay them a visit. Make sure to spark a little conversation with your favourite Shopkeeper, but don't be discouraged if they don't have any treats! Stop by later on and they might have more. Don't forget to dress your pet up in a spooky costume, or they might not get anything at all!

It's that time of year again. Temperatures have dropped, leaves are scarce on trees, and the supernatural entities are having their fun. However, there is one thing that we look forward to here on IcePets, and that is Grave Digger being open!
Spooktacular!
This year's winning prize is the Supernatural Present. Every 30 minutes, you will get a chance to win one of these presents. You can dig once every 30 seconds(once every 15 seconds if you have a UHD active), but beware, you might not get any at all! It might be a good idea to hold on to what you do win, even if it's not the main prize...
Clock's ticking!
So, what do you say? Give Grave Digger your best shovel!
Which one is the scariest costume?
After waiting patiently all year, Halloween Snow Jars and Halloween Morphing Potions will be stocking in the Snow Jar Igloo! The Halloween Snow Jar will also be stocking in the I.C.E Shop for 800 IceCash. At the end of October, all Halloween Snow Jars and Morphing Potions will be removed until next year, so make sure you stock up!
If you want to participate in the festivities but can't seem to get your Pet a costume, don't fret! Pay the Beauty King a visit and see if he can help you out.

It's time to collect some candy!
IcePets is in need of some Halloween festivities, huh? Let's get things started!
You can find these Empty Halloween Treat Bags stocking in Shops all around Terrafrost. Using this Item, your Halloween Pets can go Trick-or-Treating around your friends' and fellow User's profiles. If they have their doorstep stocked with food, you can collect candy from them once every 60 minutes.
Once you collect 20 Items, your bag will be filled and become a Full Halloween Treat Bag which is full enough to completely fill all of your Pets' tummies!
You can visit your own profile with Food Items in your Inventory to place them at your doorstep. I'm sure that a lot of Pets and Users will be grateful for your generosity.
There are also Hidden Avatars to be unlocked while Trick or Treating. Good luck collecting these!
In addition to Trick or Treating, there's also some new, and returning, Token Booth Items! These Items will only be available until the end of the October, so start using those Tokens while you can!
Of course, this is only the start! More Halloween festivities are in store very soon.

Hello Terrafrostians, Sally Searcher here with some incredible news! Thanks to your collective efforts, there's been a breakthrough in my research. It is really quite surprising, I must say! I would have never guessed... Oh, sorry! I do have quite a surprise for everyone. But what's better than telling? Showing, of course! Take a look for yourself!
What a cutie!
That's right, with help from all of you, I've finally managed to track down the cause of the Item hoarding all over Terrafrost. These little ones call themselves the Krittle, and boy are they happy to meet everyone! They seem to have gotten themselves into some trouble here in Terrafrost, quite a lot... Oh, right!
Destiny wanted me to remind everyone that one of these cute little Pets can join your IcePets family! You're in luck, since a number of Krittles are looking for homes. They would really love to meet you. If you would like to create your own Krittle, run, hop, or gallop down and Create a Pet as soon as you can! I can't wait to see all of these cuties find homes!
What do we have here?
The Krittles are an exciting new Species, and it's fair to assume some of your current Pets might like to try living the life of these interesting insectoids. Well, we have good news for you. Gabrielle, the owner and operator of the Snow Jar Igloo, is now stocking these Krittle Morphing Potions in her Shop! Don't tell her I told you this, but I don't think they've really been properly tested yet...
There are also a few new Krittle Items popping up! The Black Krittle Ice Cube and the Krittle Stamp can be found in the Frozen Collectives Emporium and Post Office, respectively. You can show off your love for Krittles with the new Krittle Default Avatar!
Thank you all again for all of the help! I'm going to go back to my position as IcePets' one and only Shop Searcher. If you need me to find anything for you in User Shops, swing by and visit!
Congratulations! As a thank you for being such an important part of our community, you will be awarded 50,000 IcePoints and this exclusive avatar:
Some things said about gotchalocket:
- Not only is she incredibly friendly and thoughtful, she's always there for me with supplying pet slot keys when I need to rescue a little one from the Adoption Center. I admire her way of showing kindness and encouragement to others at all times. gotchalocket is an important and valued member of the IcePets community!
- I don't know if gotchalocket has been member of the month before, but I really would like to nominate her. She has been so incredibly helpful to me, kind and generous. gotchalocket also has a wonderful sense of humor.
- I'd like to nominate gotchalocket for this month's MOTM. Even though she is a newer member, gotchalocket is very active. Over the summer they were busy with sales and were always at the ready to sell any I.C.E Shop Items. I love the cheerful energy they bring to the boards and community.
Whenever we have Member of the Month, you know Staff of the Month is soon to follow! This time say congratulations to...
Keekoi works hard and always creates adorable Items for the site. We appreciate everything she does, from drawing to sharing her ideas. To celebrate, we've created the following Item in her honour! Remember, you can get this Item once a day by visiting our Staff Page.
Foxy Ice Cream Sandwich
Right on the coattails of SOTM and MOTM, some mysterious new Items have appeared!
Should we be worried?
It seems the new stock in the I.C.E Shop is rather puzzling. Can you deduce if a crime has been committed? Hurry on down, since the Magnifying Glass Cake Pops, Stained Statue, and Fingerprint Ice Cube will only be available during October!
Sally Searcher here! A number of days ago I asked everyone to help me find clues as to what is changing the environment. To my surprise, the Shop Keepers decided to help search for these clues as well! Isn't that funny? I would have never thought to ask them for help! You would think they'd be busy running their shops and all, with the stocking and the restocking... Oh, sorry! After collecting their rewards, the Shop Keepers have decided to sell their extra Items!
They gave me a list of who was stocking what... I could have swore I left it right here... Oh well! I seemed to have lost the paper. Good luck finding out where everything is stocking! After searching all over Terrafrost for those pesky Items, you should have no problem finding them!
Oh! I almost forgot! During my research, I found that combining a few Items creates these strange Morphing Potions. Gabrielle refined it for me, so of course it works now. I would drink it, but I am not sure what it does. I'll send these out soon so you can try it out and tell me what happens! Speaking of, I think we have found out what is causing the changes in Terrafrost. I just need to work out a few bugs, but I'm sure I will have my thoughts collected by October 3rd! So hurry and turn in your Items, because I will stop accepting them on October 2nd at 11:59:59 PM.
