Reception

Upon BLOXTober's release people we thrilled from how big it seemed with 13 new gifts and what seemed to be a massive event. On September 28, the event was found on "Games" profile giving the title "Hallows Eve 2014: The Witching Hour Returns" with mixed reception. People said it will be bad because of it being a follow up to "Halloween 2013: The Witching Hour" which at the time was panned for it's complexed map and quests. Other people thought the admins learnt their mistakes.

By the time the Gifts ended, people gave them "generally positive" reception offering nice looking gifts, a good looking Sinister item and people loved Ghostdeeri. Despite the positive reception people called some items like "Vlad The Impaler IX" a down grade from its previous year.

When Hallows Eve 2014 released it got "mixed" reception calling it "the size of a sponsor event" and "a sponsor that was shoved in the event poorly". On the bright side, people did like the prizes.

Ovetime "Hallows Eve 2014: The Witching Hour Returns" has been given praise as it has been seen as a better Hallows Eve event.
