Web of Shadows (Halloween 2009) - 26 Oct 2009

Source: runescape.com

A dark house portal has appeared to the south of Falador once again. Tremble as you approach it, for it leads to the house of the Grim Reaper, Death himself!

In this year's Halloween event, Death has a problem with an uninvited guest. Choose to help out and you will journey to a realm rarely trod by creatures with only two feet, and converse with its irritable monarch.

Completing the event will reward you with two new wearable items – one of which has a mind of its own – so seek out the house of Death...if you dare!

We've also created a wallpaper based on this event, which you can download here.

In other news...

We’ve made some improvements to the way banks calculate your free space. Free-players who used to be members will no longer have to dump all their members items to be able to use their banks and everyone can now see their usage in more detail on the interface. For more information, please read the Controls - Banks page.

We've updated the bank to make it automatically resize to fit your screen better. The interface will automatically extend downwards to show you more of your bank items.

Zahur in Nardah, who's moved to the building east of the bank, will now decant all of your potions (in any combination) into 3-dose vials for you. He charges a small fee for this service to cover the cost of any extra vials needed.

We've swapped two tasks in the Ardougne Achievement Diary. The medium diary might look a little odd if you've already completed it, but you should still be able to wear the cloaks for their effects.

An auto re-pick feature has been added when harvesting your mushrooms, berries and fruit from Farming patches.

When collecting a single item at the Grand Exchange, left-click will now withdraw the actual item and right-click will withdraw it as a note. Withdrawals for multiple items will behave as before.

I personally think that there should be an event where you can make up for all the events you wernt here for (ie: grim reaper hood and syth)
I did the event and found it kinda annoying, but i did it anyways. I dont really care what the reward is, but i do use them for little outfits when i feel like being a noob, or feel like skilling.

First of all , a grim reaper outfit wouldn't be fair for all the player's that didn't obtain the grim reaper hood , and second of all , i agree with most people that the rewards we're a bit trash , but i don't mind the pet spider :) it's really cool , hope you guys have a happy halloween and don't eat too much sweets :D PS - i think the bank update was very cool and so was the GE updatel

I liked the event. it was fun but i was a bit sad for the rewards, could be a litle better. but the important was that i had fun doing it and i helped some friend doing it too. so in the end it was a great event.
