Spirit's Eve
Spirit's Eve is a festival in Pelican Town where the townspeople recognize the spirits within the town and prepare for the winter season. It's identical to Halloween. This festival begins at 10:00pm on the 27th of Fall: the second-last day of the season. Spirit's Eve ends when you exit the town square, and will teleport you to your farm at midnight.
It's important to note that in the hours leading up to Spirit's Eve, the player will be unable to enter the town square through the Easternmost exit of the farm. The player can still exit via the North and South entrances.
Attractions
The main attraction is a haunted maze set up around the community center. Many of the townspeople will be carving pumpkins or eating food at the buffet, but most are inside of the maze. There is a small shop set up, as well as skeletons inside of a cage. According to townsfolk rumours, the skeletons were supposedly created by the Wizard.
Unlike many other events, there are no contests or challenges to finish, apart from completing the maze.
Haunted Maze
The haunted maze is set up by Rosmodius the Wizard. He is so committed to creating a frightening maze that it will take him all day to set it up. A large majority of the townspeople are either frightened or confused by the maze (especially Abigail, who can't continue due to her fear of spiders).
The town's children will not be allowed in the maze because their parents think it is "too scary" for children.
Surviving the Haunted Maze
**WARNING: SPOILERS TO FOLLOW**
Like all mazes, the "keep going left" mentality is present here. Just keep on going left; it isn't a huge maze. It's worth it to stop and talk to the characters, though: some of the dialogue is really amusing.
The trick to reaching the end is to take the secret passage, which begins just underneath and to the left of the "?" signpost, and then continues to the right inside the cave to the North. It weaves to the left and right, which requires a little bit of blind navigation. You will exit down into the treasure section of the maze.
A golden pumpkin is given as a reward for finishing the maze. It has no purpose other than to sell, and it's worth 2500g.
