Happy Friday the 13th, Happy Halloween, and welcome to our Haunted Carnival, where fun and fright entwine to create an unforgettable time of excitement, wonder, and spookiness. Arriving at The Bell Tree on this dark Friday evening are many bone-chilling attractions and sideshows that will be open until Halloween night. You are invited to this carnival to take part, try your luck, be creative, and catch a glimpse of the horrifying wonders... if you dare.
How it Works
Like most TBT events, you will participate in several activities that will earn you currency to buy collectibles in the shop. At this carnival, however, some activities will appear in exclusive sideshow tents that require a special pass to enter.
Main Attractions are regular activities that will earn you both Carnival Coins to spend in the shop and Sideshow Tickets, which are used to enter the sideshow tents.
Sideshow Tents are exclusive boards with multiple activities that are hidden until you buy a pass to enter them. Use your Sideshow Tickets in the shop to buy a pass for any of the four tents: Magic, Mind, Monster, and Mountebank. In addition to earning Sideshow Tickets from the Main Attractions, you may also find a few for free every now and then.
A pass will give you access to the tent for 2 days. After that time, you will need to buy another one to enter the tent again. Each tent has a schedule posted inside, which may be useful if you'd like to time the passes with the dates of your favorite activities. All four tents have at least one activity that will unlock another collectible for sale in the shop, earn a small amount of additional Carnival Coins, and earn other rewards such as bells. However, as the "sideshow" name implies, the activities contained inside are side events that are more for fun than anything else, so don't stress too much over which ones you visit!
You will find all of the Main Attractions under the Haunted Carnival section of the forum. The Sideshow Tents will also appear there as soon as you purchase a pass for the tent from the shop. Get started with two free Sideshow Tickets: click here to redeem!

Haunted Carnival Backdrops
During our haunted carnival, we'll also be selling two new temporary backdrops that will be placed behind your profile information with each of your posts.
Astral Arcana and Cryptic Canopy
Astral Arcana was designed by Mistreil. Cryptic Canopy was designed by Pyoopi and will change based on the time of day. Either backdrop can be purchased in the shop for 75 bells and will be removed from your inventory after 3 weeks.
