Day 375: Octoberville
This year, I wanted to check out Halloween places before November 1st :)
Theres always the spooky Devil's Labyrinth all year around (and always growing!). And October Country, where it will always be Halloween :)
But if you like scavenger hunts and haunted mansions, you only have until Halloween to join in the 3rd annual Octoberville scavenger hunt!
You start out by picking up your private investigator notebook from your office.
Thats me: Detective Natalia Zelmanov, private eye! :P
Then you just wander around the town of Octoberville to collect clues and find all 100 items. Thats right: 100! :)
But dont worry, they are everywhere and easy to find. Unfortunately, theres a LOT of them!
And in case you get discouraged, theres already a bunch of people who have found all 100!
Theres a Top 20 scoreboard that keeps track of the top scavengers. You still have a chance to make it on the board :)
Your notebook keeps track of all the items and will cross them out as you find them. Check out all the stuff I found! :)
You notebook is a HUD attachment, so be sure you "Wear" it. If you are not looking at the notebook, just click the "down arrow" button on the upper right corner to minimize it. Remember, you have to be "Wearing" your notebook to collect items!
Once in a while, you should "Detach" the notebook and "Wear" it again. This will "save" your notebook in case your SL program or the sim crashes! (Oh...that never happens, does it? ;P)
The town of Octoberville is a fun place to explore, with lots of stuff to do!
You can ride a train on a haunted tour of the sim...
And go through all the buildings in town...
Help! Fire!
I didnt touch anything...that box was sitting there and suddenly burst into flames...honest!
OMG! OMG! Spiders!
Get these spiders off me!!!
Say, wasnt he in last year's Octoberville? I guess he didnt make it out of this maze!
What Halloween sim is complete without a haunted house? :P
And Octoberville certainly has a big house!
Umm...those spikes are Phantom Prims, right?
Ever get the feeling someone is watching you?
HELP!!!
A mouse! A giant hairy mouse with a tail! 
Well, at least I got this cool compact and mirror (along with a whole bunch of gadgets!).
Because its really popular, Octoberville can be a bit laggy during the day. You may have to "Touch" an object a few times before the notebook recognizes it. It can be a bit frustrating, but you may want to try during off-hours... As long as you keep your notebook, you can always come back later.
Whether you want to join in the scavenger hunt or not, come check out Octoberville between now and Halloween. I dont know how much longer it will be there after Halloween, so better hurry :)

I'm in Octoberville right now, relaxing my eyes from the hunt for items (only 4 left *yay*) and stumbled over this diary entry.
I really have to say that Octoberville is helluvafun. We closed our Club today, just to run here and have some fun *hehe* It's fantastic, so many details, chosen with love, creepy, spoooooky, and that Haunted Orphan is.. *shiver* excellent.
Master Kaos and his people did a superduper-fantastic job with Octoberville Hundert Thumbs up :)
~Chan, who is going to search her last items now (and no, it isn't that easy *gg*)
Chandni, wow congratulations! You've almost got the whole thing solved!
Octoberville truly is amazing in detail, and so much fun :)
Good luck on your search! Hopefully you have the last 4 items by now :)
I went to Octoberville last night. It was a bit laggy and I couldn't figure out how to get past the front room in the haunted house,lol.But otherwise it was great!:D Very nicely done. I'm gonna try again today, and look for some more items.
I found your blog the other day and have been addicted since! You have great tutorials here! I think I learned more from you in two days,then I have from the SL forums in two months. Thank you! Keep up the good work.:)
