Give your new houseguests a spooky reception with a dark collection of new and returning items all coming to the Crown Store in October!

Good! My most favorite month of the year, alongside december of course!

Houseguests! The wait is finally over.

So anyone got any suggestions for a good housing plot to start building a village for this group of misfits?

Dark Passion Regalia looks great that crotch flap is a no for me total ruins that outfit.

And the Ebony Blade looks cool too bad it's not dyeable but I'll probably get it anyways.

What an underwhelming collection of old things I already have and a few new things I wouldn't touch with the proverbial 10 foot pole. Like the bimbo vamp outfit that makes you look more like a cross between an exotic dancer and a circus ringmaster. Not sexy or alluring, just bad.

I'll pick up the music boxes I guess. The ship one is pretty neat.

Moonsugar meadow is great for village building.

I like that they return many of those older things, including Hollowjack crates There are more of creepy older items which could have returned during this Halloween-themed month, and I wonder if they save them for November... or for another year.

If only Shadowghost Wolf had blue/white eyes I always loved his fur color and matching accessories The horse looks so beautiful with blue eyes, why couldn't the wolf look as beautiful?..

Subterranean Sonata music box is so awesome - I set it up in my homes on PTS during this and previous cycles
Other items don't interest me, so - in my case - October's showcase is rather boring I already want to see November showcase.

Please let the house guest be preview as to what they say and how they walk without buying them. Even better implement a system where we can temporary purchase a item and try for 5-10 minutes before the purchase becomes final.

Be safe and have fun😁

The pts can be used for this.

I've been waiting for that Vampire Lady costume, thank you! Half of these items are repeats but still a much better spread than last month!

Aww, I'm a bit disappointed that the Hunter's Glade isn't making a return this year. I've had my eye on that house, and it's one of the few that I'd even consider buying furnished.

Also still wondering what happened to that datamined Bard personality...hopefully that didn't go the same way as the Short Mussed Wave or Unruly Bangs hairstyles, or that Barbarian costume forma ages ago. Speaking of, when are those finally getting their release as well?

Not too impressed by the lady vampire costume - I'd have liked that with a long skirt and closed shoulders. Plague Doctor looks cool though, but it should be coming out just a few days earlier to match up with the new hand washing emote (lol).

I do like the return of the Dragon Bones stuff though. I'm desperately in need of a furniture bag though if I'm gonna get a furnishing pack. I don't have a house designed yet, but I'm already drowning in antiquities. I guess this free house we're getting is going to strictly be a warehouse until I can find places for all of this stuff - may have to destroy a few antiquity furnishings I don't need. Pity there's no Nordic Barrow house that some of the cool stuff like the Tyrants pack would fit in. I'd have jumped for that Nordic Door in the last set of crates if there was anywhere good to put it.

Agreed. Give it pants like the other costume, or even a skirt. What even is this flap?

Shadowspawn42

Does anyone know if the Shadowghost wolf will be for crowns or gems? I really want it, but there’s no way I’m paying gems. Also will the coven cottage be available for gold/in game? I thought I heard you could earn it in the witches event somehow?

Mr_Arce88

Crates that do not sucks on all levels of rewards? Is this real? Awesome collection as far as I see. Of course with my luck I will get all 3 useless motif books XD

Coldharbour Surreal Estate would be a nice one for those who wish to banish these "misfits" to the Lord of Domination's domain (to keep the soul shriven furnishings company)

MajThorax

This month is dope! Finally!

Hunter's glade is on the PTS for Markarth, I'm hoping that means it might return later this year.

@ZOS_SarahHecker there is no music coming out of the 'music box, hymn of the 500 axes'. Turned volume very high and still no music. Ps4 NA. Edit: it seems that is only in western skyrim that that happens for me. Tested in another zone and Icould then preview the music. Thank you.

If on PC EU you are most welcome to visit Claws Meadow Village, formerly Moon Sugar Meadow.

If not then the Mew Tube channel of this one has some videos taken there.

They don't let console players have PTS so no I can't. Really wish they would provide a PTS for console players. Sure I would have to download a second copy of the game and that's fine.

I like these rumors of Hunter’s Glade coming back for Markarth. Please let it be so, because I too was bummed out it’s not showing up for October.

Destai

Looks cool, would be nice to earn all of this in-game.

CaptainVenom

I love that Provisioning Cauldron wish I could get it only.

Be glad that there are lots of things available for Crowns and it’s not all those stupid crates! Plus, even if you don’t buy Crowns yourself, you can pay gold to someone to buy and gift the item to you (whereas items available for Gems are not giftable).
