As part of our weekend coverage, and with the approach of Halloween, we're making sure that players of all sorts of games are made aware of the thrills and chills of the season in their favorite titles. 

DC Universe Online: Oct. 8 - Nov. 5

DCUO celebrates Halloween with the return of the "The Witching Hour." Once again, masked ghouls are causing chaos in the streets as Klarion the Witch Boy's mischievous antics have caused all hell to break loose across Gotham City. Heroes will be tasked with stopping the dangerous apparitions, while Villains will work to cause even more trouble. Ultimately, players will be challenged to enter the Goth club, "The MidnightMasquerade," and take down Klarion, who has managed to increase his power by stealing the abilities of magic Heroes and Villains. Additionally, players will be able to participate in new feats and earn new rewards, including style items, like the Skeleton Outfit and Witch Hat, tons of base items, and a new pet -- Boo Junior.
