Halloween

Halloween has been celebrated on Dragon Cave every October since 2008. Typically the celebration will include a Halloween-themed mini-game, a new set of Trick or Treat items to collect, and the release of a new Halloween dragon. In addition, the Halloween season is the only time of year that past Halloween dragons may be bred, or found in the special limited-time Halloween biome of the cave.
== Halloween dragons ==
Halloween dragons are limited release dragons that can only found during the Halloween season. Starting October 25, past Halloween dragons can produce offspring of their own breed until October 31. A special Halloween biome also becomes available, allowing users to pick up cave-born eggs of past Halloween dragons.
New Halloween dragons are released on October 31, and are available for 24 hours. Unlike Valentine's Day and Holiday dragons, Halloween dragons have no breed limits. Users may collect as many cave-born Halloween dragons as they wish.
=== Halloween egg guide ===
 	Description 	Notes
Vampire Dragon(2008) 	This egg is stone cold and smells rotten. 	Unlike other Halloween dragons, Vampires can be produced year-round through the Bite BSA.
Pumpkin Dragon(2009) 	This egg smells like the autumn harvest. 	Pumpkin Dragons are Pygmies, and can only breed with other pygmy dragons.
Black Marrow(2010) 	This egg is covered in a dark crust. 	
Shadow Walker(2011) 	This egg fades into the shadows. 	
Cavern Lurker Dragon(2012)	This egg is wedged in a dark corner. 	
Grave Dragon(2013) 	This egg appears to have an evil grin. 	
Desipis Dragon(2014) 	Being near this egg makes it hard to think clearly. 	
Caligene Dragon(2015) 	The pattern on this egg’s shell is unsettling. 	
Witchlight Dragon(2016) 	This downy egg is hidden in brambles. 	
Omen Wyrm(2017) 	This warm egg is tangled in the roots of a dead tree. 	
Arcana Dragon(2018) 	This egg has reflective spots that remind you of gems, or eyes. 	
Kohraki Dragon(2019) 	A fine mist rolls over this cool, scaly egg. 	
Pitfire Dragon(2020) 	Dead leaves obscure this egg’s scratched shell. 	
Iridichi Dragon(2021) 	Your eyes struggle to completely focus on the light coming through this cloudy egg.	
Crypt Dragon(2022) 	This cool, weathered egg is a heavy burden to bear. 	Crypt dragons are two-headed dragons, and can only breed with other two-headed dragons.
Abyss Watcher Dragon(2023)	Soft bioluminescence shifts over the surface of this dark egg.
