Halloween’s tradition of costumes and candy is being reimagined in the Web3 world, as virtual celebrations in the Metaverse enable global participation without physical boundaries.
The Sandbox’s Spooky Season 4 Event The Sandbox, a leading metaverse gaming platform, has launched “Spooky Season 4” within its Alpha Season 4, offering players eerie games, creative design opportunities, and in-game rewards. Players can dress their avatars in themed costumes, compete in Halloween-inspired games, and vie for a share of a 30,000 SAND prize pool. “Halloween’s classic elements lend themselves to immersive, playful experiences that bring our community together,” said Sebastien Borget, COO and Co-Founder of The Sandbox.
Halloween Celebrations in Decentraland Another prominent platform, Decentraland, is hosting events such as the “Tru Band Room 3rd Anniversary & Halloween Bash,” featuring live music, and the “Exodus 2024 Halloween” event, where players can unlock special costumes and earn in-game rewards. According to Kim Currier, Head of Partnerships and Marketing at Decentraland Foundation, “The Metaverse removes location barriers, enabling users to connect seamlessly, while offering limitless costume changes.”
Upland’s Haunted Real Estate Virtual real estate platform Upland, inspired by real-world maps, will allow players to decorate their virtual properties with Halloween-themed assets. Danny Brown Wolf, Upland’s Chief of Staff, highlighted Upland’s social contest in its haunted plaza resembling San Francisco’s city center, where winners can earn up to 50,000 UPX, Upland’s in-game currency.
Increased Engagement Through Festive Rewards Holiday-themed events often boost engagement in the Metaverse, creating opportunities for limited-edition rewards. The Sandbox, for example, recently airdropped a special Pumpkin Mask NFT for its LAND owners, granting them exclusive access to the 30,000 SAND prize pool for completing Spooky Season 4 quests.
Exercise Caution with Halloween-Themed Scams While festivities heighten excitement, Woody Cheng, VP of Business Development at SecuX, advises caution to avoid phishing scams and fake “crypto treats” often disguised as limited-time offers. He recommends users stay alert, secure private keys, and avoid impulsive trades during potential Halloween market volatility.
