Trick or Treat 2009

From Webkinz Insider Wiki

The ghost in The Clubhouse was an event that ran from October 24th through November 1st, 2009 for Halloween.

Trick or Treating comes to Webkinz World!

The ghost's contract has been extended to November 1st!

From October 24th through October 31st, you can go Trick or Treating in the Clubhouse!

How to play

If you see a ghost in the clubhouse, just walk over and click on it, and you'll be rewarded with one of 12 tasty treats. If you collect all 12 treats, you'll unlock a special prize!

You can only get one piece of candy every 3 hours^[1], which is per account.
You must be present in the room before the ghost appears. (IE: You must be in the room before the ghost enters)
If you see people with "Trick-or-Treat" over their heads, they got a piece of candy.
If you see people with a pumpkin over their heads, they are checking their candy collection inventory.
When he appears, you hear a "spooky boo" sound.

↑ Toward the end of the event, this time was lowered to every two hours, and then to every hour.

How to Find the Ghost

Thanks to the Webkinz Insider members who have been working hard to track Ghost sightings in our Ghostbuster thread we can now tell you how to predict where the Ghost will appear on your personal account!

Once you see the Ghost once on your account, you should be able to figure out where he will be on that account for the rest of the day. When you see him the first time, make note of what color you were in and the exact time you saw him. When you return in three hours to try to find him again make sure you pick the same color.

UPDATE: Tuesday, October 27th. The timing has changed. The Ghost now appears on a 15 minute schedule instead of a 20 minute schedule. :08, :23, :38, :53. He still follows the same room pattern he was following on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, but he's moving through the rooms more quickly.

Party Room to Girls Rule Room to Garden Yard to Party Room, etc.
Games Room to Sports Room to Bowling Alley to Games Room, etc.
Go Fish Room, to Exercise Room to Trading Room to Go Fish Room, etc.
Collector Room to Reading Room to Super Chef Room to Collector Room, etc.

For those of you who don't want to deal with finding out how the pattern applies to your account, just go to one room and stay there. You should have two chances an hour at seeing the ghost.

Unfortunately, just like with Doug the Dog, the sometimes the Ghost doesn't show up in every room number of the type of room he's supposed to be in. This is the way it has been designed, each room instance has its own odds of having the ghost appear. To find the Ghost, you just have to be patient and keep trying.

Each server is on a different pattern and many people have been trying to figure out what server they are on to try to figure out the pattern. If you know your server, you can match up your pattern with other members who are on the same server, but this information is NOT necessary. As long as you spot him once on your account, you have all of the information you need to predict where he will be.

A special thank you goes out to to webkinzaddict and maypal for sorting out the pattern, to crnovak, jagular, and adrkmfdm for fine-tuning the details, and to webfamily for helping so many members figure out how the pattern applies to their accounts!
