Comment by josephxpOnce you or a Friend/Guildie get the Scarlet Key from the loot-filled pumpkin and unlock the Vanilla Scarlet Monastery instance, you can go and get additional keys from Doan's Strongbox in the Library Wing!

I feel like it's a real bummer they didn't tell.Comment by reedwandI think the achievement may be faulty, Kickin' with the wick, did all 4 curses and no achieve, does everyone have to be lvl 70 for it to be rewarded?
I realised there was a death which negates earning the achievement!Comment by FuserenHoA is currently active for the Headless Horseman event lolComment by pytnzpltrBlizzard should've updated the Headless Horseman mount model. Make it high res and modern. The old one looks like shiiiiiiii.Comment by dchobbyso doing it the first time has the chance for sought after items and each kill after that on any other toon just gives masks/candy it seemsComment by echo808Sadly I wasnt able to get the Brewfest armor...even though I did it with 10 toons everyday except for one.

Once again you are overwhelmed with old content and have to or should find out for yourself if something is new, why should you do this anyway

If you are new to the game, you will be forced to switch to other pages again.Comment by Nulgargame design aka 1999
