The Harvest Faire: October Catch-All!
[ As the sun rises at the start of the month, a forest of colorful tents arises outside the city gates. It is not an enemy encampment, though, unless you hate fun. Then yes, it is an enemy encampment. Fun is assaulting the Kingdom in full force, as Harvest Faire fever sweeps across the nation. ]
[ You may join crowds of eager people on the initial days, or wait until the mania has died down to a more casual flow—but either way, there’s a lot to see and do at the faire. It all has to do with people trying to sell you on their religions by showing you their October Best in holidays, but the people of the Kingdom know that if they’re boring or too hard with their sales, no one will come back. So expect a fun, full immersion experience into this or that cult! Food, beverage, and substances will be provided, along with any props you may need to participate. ]
[ Or, I guess, find opportunities to get paid to be a carny, if money is more your speed than fun. ]
[ Cults are on a rotating schedule, so they won’t be the same every day, but eager acolytes will be glad to tell you when they’ll be back in the tent again, so you’ll be welcome to come back again. Maybe even bring a friend along with you? They’re often all smiles on the advertising side, no matter how macabre or dark their faith may be. ]
[ And hey, look, on some days, there’s empty tents... ]

"There's not a definite origin, but there are a few things it can be attributed to. More recently candy has been encouraged by companies to up sales during the celebration. It may also be linked to Dia De Los Muertos, the day of the dead where lost loved ones are remembered, but that holiday is really unrelated."
"Halloween is often considered a holiday of excess, as well as a night when children are allowed to face their fears in a humorous and constructive way. This excess extends not only to sweets, but to staying up late and often more illicit themes for adults. The holiday really is more for children though, and they go door-to-door in costumes- as devils, monsters, or lighter things- asking for candy."
