The Feast of Masks is over, but Mr Huffam is eager to interview revellers for a special Hallowmas edition of his Unexpurgated Gazette! You can find his silver storylet throughout London. Trade in your Spirit of Hallowmas: the more you accumulated throughout the season, the more impressive your mention may be!

I got married IRL on November 1st. This means I spent the better half of Hallowmas preparing for the wedding and the other half on my honeymoon. I'm lucky to have gotten the Spirit I did, though I was about 180 short of having a whole edition dedicated to me. Next year I'll have more time create a battle plan for getting into the Hallowmas Spirit.
Still, I'm happy with my penultimate reward. Nothing wrong with a supplementary issue.

158x trust (2). I'm going to -start- next Hallowmas at 948 spirit. Best reward is 500 spirit. I'm crying. Next year is going to be brilliant X'D

Oh, This is interesting. I drew the One's Public card, and it had a new option. On it, I could gain rewards based on which choice you made when you traded in your spirit of hallowmas. I got 1 intreging gossip, 31 cryptic clues, and a small amount of making waves. I wonder what the 500 spirit option gains you...

I had more than 250 but less than 500 Spirit of Hallowmas. Going on the thought that I should use the option which asked for the most Spirit and fitted my character best I ended up with another point of Notability and an Elemental Secret

Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.
No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

Some nice rewards for the 500 spirit option: 1 Intriguer's Compendium, 1 Dreadful Surmise, and 2 points of notability. Nothing unique though.

None of my characters got much above 60 Spirit (in fact, Cairn only had 22, but that's to be expected when one has the impeccable timing to create a new alt in the middle of the celebration), but I'm sure I'll get around to unlocking some of the more extravagant options next year. Although Soran received a rather welcome Personal Recommendation for their eternally gracious forgiveness of the people who so ruthlessly betrayed them. Isn't that nice?
On an unrelated note, Soran is now a proud (or, more likely, begrudging) member of the Parthenaeum. Maybe I'll spring for that fifth point of Notability this week...
But anyway, this was really fun. I am so, so glad that I finally decided to stop being my usual social interaction-averse self so I could participate in these things. Can't wait to see what the next holiday celebration brings. edited by Soran on 11/12/2014

Those will last forever. I have a school of 12 of them. What can I say, they're just irresistibly cute. Plus I know my Rubbery associates like them.
Alas, My notability was already at 15, so I missed out on part of my reward for my article. The 2 Night-Whispers are very nice, though.

Being in the same situation, I chose the somewhat more villainous option, gaining an Intriguer's Compendium and a point of Notability. edited by Inpiun on 11/12/2014

Hmm. I'm betting that even this will not allow me to increase Notability above 15..
Confirmed. Two pretty Night-Whispers, though; not useful to me right now but perhaps convenient for others..

This is the first year to have Spirits of Hallowmas, so I'm not sure if you can save them. I'm willing to bet that Mr Huffam doesn't want to report on old news, though, so if you don't use that quality Time will probably eat it.

In general, if a festival has some sort of currency quality that you can trade in for other things, like Masquing, Spirit of Hallowmas or a Strange Catch, it won't last from year to year.
