Eden is pretty new to the Halloween holiday, but she does her best to get into the spirit, dressing as a happy jack-o-lantern herself, with a jaunty pumpkin hat!

She is looking forward to trying her hand at pumpkin carving for the first time!

Kate will pop in for free booze, of course, and to pre-game for a party she'll be attending later in the evening. Also new to this Halloween thing, Kate is delighted to find that most of her everyday wardrobe will fit the bill.

Also, Eden should count all the carving knives after Kate leaves.

Feeling very Halloween-y, Addie came in costume with a basket of pumpkin cookies for the callers to go with the rest of their pumpkin things.

She's not very good at pumpkin carving, so she gave it her best shot. http://halloweenpumpkindesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Jack-O-Lantern-Images.jpg ((Credit: halloweenpumpkindesigns.com))

In hopes of showing up to test out her new toy, Misery may or may not attempt to carve a pumpkin with the Panther's Claw. http://cfc.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/.sig/gBUf3dEDhvKbPof9A1T3QA/cid/210083428/id/ODod8PGW5hGGSjePO4xqOQ/size/c600x600.jpg

He'll show up in the skeleton onesie, but there's no telling when he'll shed the costume. Guess you'll have to come see for yourself!

Jewell still didn't understand what the heck people carved pieces of fruit for, but they looked kind of cool so she was willing to maybe try it as long as it wasn't too messy. Otherwise, she was just going to drink and fight.

And eat donuts.

Saila was really starting to get into the Halloween thing as she learned more about it, and it had been a minute since she'd supported the duels anyway.

Someone would have to explain to her just what exactly pumpkin carving was, but once she learned she'd give it her best shot. The end result looked something like this:

While dueling wasn't quite their speed, as they'd dragged the rest of the pack out of too many fist fights to count, they were happy to relax without the three troublemakers there. They may not have been up for stabbing people, but stabbing pumpkins was fair game. Harper was just proud to carve some misshapen creature that might look like a wolf if you squinted at it from 10 yards away. Serina spent the entire time she wasn't carving her alien pumpkin by bedecking it with as many stickers as she could find in her purse, which turned out to be a disconcertingly large number. How she managed to fit them in there and still find space for a phone and wallet remained a mystery. But the real work lay in Quinn. It really is quite unfair to bring an art student to a pumpkin carving contest, but by the time the dueling wound down, there sat a perfect replica of Van Gogh's Starry Night on a lovely pumpkin canvas. Serina stuck a glittery UFO sticker in the corner as a finishing touch, and called the masterpiece complete.

Halloween was not something Val was particularly familiar with, but after years of sitting them out, she was up for anything that seemed fun and social! A costume of some type seemed the order of the day, and she managed to throw something together just in time...

When you come to dueling with pumpkins, you dress in orange and black. The hoodie was paired with black jeans and sneakers.

She also brought with her boxes of Halloween candles: http://i1071.photobucket.com/albums/u519/renaacronin/spookycandles_zpszayp5msm.jpeg http://i1071.photobucket.com/albums/u519/renaacronin/spookycandles1_zpsv26pdkz0.jpeg
