There’s a lot of spooky content coming to Call of Duty’s The Haunting event, which runs from Oct. 19 to Nov. 2. There are also new cosmetics available: Frank the Rabbit and Ghostface skins for Baker; Disciple of Mayhem skins for Weaver and Lumens skins for Maxis.

Verdansk also goes dark, literally, as it gets darker at nightfall WarzoneMap is being attacked by g–g–ghosts during a special event. The Ghosts of Verdansk, Call of Duty developers says, is a “spiritual successor” to the Zombie Royale mode that debuted in last year’s iteration of The Haunting. The limited-time mode has players “fighting threats both human and unhuman” and playing as ghosts.

In Ghosts of Verdansk, “death won’t send you to the Gulag,” according to the Call of Duty blog. Operators become ghosts after being eliminated for the first time, and while they won’t have weapons to fight with upon their return, they can leap, teleport, and stun flesh-and-blood operators, and claw at them until they die.

Scary game variations are also coming to Call of Duty as limited-time modes: Infected, in which operators battle a team of player-controlled zombies; Prop Hunt Halloween, in which player-controlled skulls, jack-o’-lanterns, black cats, bats, and skeletons try to hide from other players on a Halloween-themed Nuketown map; and Scream Deathmatch, in which two operators become Ghostface and try to eliminate a group of survivors — who don’t have any weapons.

There’s a lot more to digest at the official Call of Duty blog for season six’s Halloween event.
