According to one acount, “in some form, in some shape, in some variation, almost every inhabited universe [had] its own version of Halloween” — not necessarily under that name, but recognisable as an autumnal holiday celebrating “the general spookiness of things”. This led some of “the greatest dimensional scholars” to propose possible causal reasons for this state of affairs, with the [[Hidden Academics of the Tower of Yqwsl]] speculating that “some unwary dimensional traveler accidentally warped back to the [[creation of the Multiverse]] itself (an event which is, in itself, hotly debated) and dropped a pumpkin, or perhaps a [[ghost]], thus sparking the whole thing”. [[Lord Thymon]] apparently told the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]]' [[Department of Festivities]] that he once “threw an enormous fright-themed party on the very concept of October 31, thus spreading said party, in various incarnations, across every occurrence of this date in the Multiversal timeline”. | According to one acount, “in some form, in some shape, in some variation, almost every inhabited universe [had] its own version of Halloween” — not necessarily under that name, but recognisable as an autumnal holiday celebrating “the general spookiness of things”.

At any rate, in many universes, including the [[Prime Universe]], the walls between the mortal realm and other, more supernatural realities such as the [[Spirit Realm]] were weakened on Halloween, with various [[spirit path]]s opening. However, spirits who escaped their Spirit Realm on Halloween could not linger past the end of the day in any place to which they were not “anchored”.

However, spirits who escaped their Spirit Realm on Halloween could not linger past the end of the day in any place to which they were not “anchored”. Similarly, in the [[Neazzarack Realm]], one particular entity, the [[Spirit King]] [[Wrythk]], escaped from the [[Underworld]] every Halloween, which, as a result, was not a holiday but a time of great strife for the inhabitants of the mortal plane.
