The "Ghostbusters Event" also called "Quahog Halloween" or just "Halloween Update" is a Halloween special update which includes: New Costumes! Characters! Prizes and of course buildings and also many ghosts which are haunting our Quahogs. You need District 3 (Shopping Center) to participate.
Event Overview[]
From the iOS Apple Store Update Description:
"It's Halloween in Quahog! The pumpkins are being carved, the candy bowls are being filled, and all the slutty costumes are selling out. But something seems a little spooky and strange...Quahog's being haunted by ghosts!"
"Help Peter Griffin and his Ghostbusting buddies defeat scary ghouls! Vanquishing ghosts gives you Spirit Vials: a powerful liquid used for buying event items and for crafting!"
Currency[]
In this event you couldn't use coins to buy any limited decoration or building, the default currency were the "Spirit Vials" which could be gained by clearing the ghosts, collecting from buildings or completing the special limited tasks.
You also could use the premium currency: Clams, with them you were able to buy many limited buildings which were very helpful in this event.
After building something from this event you also gained the "Fright Points" which were needed to level up the "Fright Level" so you could get more content - for example: The Poltergeist Portal needed Fright Level 2 to be unlocked. You also gained Fright Points if your character (not everyone) completed a special limited time task, for example: Human Rupert.
Week One[]
The first week of the Halloween 2014 Event began with the appearance of message that said you have to reload the game. After reloading, spawned in your Quahog some spooky buildings at the Temporary Staging Area (the forested area directly behind the starting point in the game). Among them was a Haunted House, a small Graveyard area, and a mysterious Spellbook, which Peter felt compelled to investigate. Tapping the Spellbook causes it to disappear, leaving in its place an otherworldly Gray Ghost Portal. In order to combat the influx of these frightening spirits, Peter realizes he must fulfill a lifelong dream - and become a Ghostbuster!
