Dear farmer, you all know that I'm a Halloween sucker. Well, I searched for the precise date and was disappointed that I regularly have to wait until the end of October. However, I think it can't hurt if I establish the Halloween theme a little bit earlier. What do you think? Would the beginning of October be appropriate or is it too early? I also have to consider that I need some days for preparations. I want to achieve a spooky look and for that purpose I need many trees "dead". This will last some time. Plus I intend to use one of my 4 layouts for a perfect arrangement.  THX for your contribution, it's always appreciated, as you know.  |

Sheesh, we have people in our neighborhood, the real one, their yards are already decked out for Halloween, and that since the first of September. So I am thinking I will get tired of Halloween decorations when Halloween finally gets here after 8 weeks, oh and then they leave them decorations up until the end of November. Those are the scrooches... and I am fully expecting the opposite crowd to decorate their homes and front yards with Christmas decorations at the first of October  ...and to leaves those decorations up until the following Easter |

I would say, when the supermarkets start offering Halloween deco, it’s time. Soon. Anyway, it’s a free country, you can start whenever you feel like it. Have fun! ;-)

The products for Christmas are way to early in the shops. I try to ignore it, it's annoying indeed.
Due to this I ask you, I want to place my Halloween deco in time, but not too early . Sure I won't wait like last year when SC was dead slow offering finally the Halloween design. To wait and to wait and to wait was annoying as well. I think the beginning of October would be a good time to start.  I would say, when the supermarkets start offering Halloween deco, it’s time.

I will have fun, certainly! nah I wasn't serious just like kanta says, decorate away whenever you feel like it. This is really a personal preference!! my German friend, for example, bakes her Christmas cookies and hides them away from her family until exactly the 24th of December and she also does not buy nor eat any before that date and also does not decorate her tree until the 24th. weird, right? I do enjoy all Holidays and the decorations and dislike just a bit the commercialism of the holidays. So my preference is to decorate for Autumn now, for Halloween the first part of October, for Thanksgiving in November and for Christmas by the first Advent. On my Hay Day farm I have my 'Halloween corner' all year round, but I call it my 'Farm Witch's Abode' that's where the gnomes carefully visit for potions and brews should the pigs have digestive issues due to overeating, etc  |

EturtleForgot to mention that I already love your Halloween corner for a long time. The colors are magnificent, the fence is surrounding the area very well. Sorry for the late compliment, I apologize. It was always on my mind but I forgot to tell it.

I have Halloween decos up all year on my farm, and I started putting them all out. I kept my Halloween house. I can't get enough of Halloween, my neighborhood name is Halloweeners. I wanted Halloweenies, but HD wouldn't let me. I keep a few Halloween decos in my real house all year.

I hope SC will get the hint and put Halloween decorations as rewards on the farm pass, in October. I don’t think they did that last year. I’m sure one of you has a better memory than me. Let us know if there was or wasn’t Halloween decorations in last year’s October farm pass.

Let us know if there was or wasn’t Halloween decorations in last year’s October farm pass. I found an old Screenshot, dated September 17th, 2021. In my Halloween 🎃 corner was the Halloween kitchen. I think this was the kitchen as diamond offer in September. Considering this the kitchen was offered in the farmpass from October or November, I'm not sure which month precisely. Perhaps another member knows. |

If it goes like so many holidays past, they will have the decos from Farm Pass as well as any global awards happen on Oct 31...and if we're lucky we'll get the decos on Nov 1. 😡 |

It was a nuisance. Although I'm so eager for Halloween I failed to see the reason why SC introduced this special deco so late. We'll see. Hope dies last.... |

Oh dear, I'm so blonde....  I have to play HayDay nearly 6 years to discover that the layouts can be named. I found it out by accident, unbelievable. It's very useful as I have 4 layouts. Now I can be sure not to mix them up.  |

I celebrated a little bit too early. The change of names in the layouts don't last, sadly. If I leave a layout and choose another one for being active the names are gone.... What sense does this make? You can change it, but a few moments later it vanishes, that's a little bit frustrating.  |

Dear farmer, it's done. Halloween found it's way to my farm. I know I'm too early, but I don't care. Last year Halloween by Maggie was so late that I decided I need a compensation.  |

One of my minis has every season's deco on display year round! I love Halloween and will put my deco out on my main farm on the first 🎃. |

Tahoe 🐾I prepped my farm a little bit with dead trees but in my opinion I need more. I try to find a good balance between my fruit trees, my pine trees and my leafy trees. My donkeys are astonished about the spooky look which took place. But I know my donkeys...they'll become used to it.

They're the best for Halloween spookyness imo! |

I don't intend to start a monologue, but I'm so excited about Halloween that I was searching an appropriate avatar. I know, I'm way too early, but I can't withstand any longer. Please forgive my impatience.  |

I wish we had more choice for avatar for super cell ID as well. But there is a very scary avatar which is barely used.

...and to leaves those decorations up until the following Easter
