Build 26342971

'tis the most special time of year, when the horror seeps out of our digital realm into the real world, lurking behind every corner. Pumpkins get maimed, the undead rise and new cavities get ready to form. Even in the world of the SCP Foundation this is a time unlike any other, weird things tend to happen around the site and unpredictable anomalous properties grow even more unpredictable!

Everyone remembers SCP-330, a staple of Containment Breach - and if you don't, you might need to consult your nearest Foundation physician over the amount of amnestics you've been taking - granted you have the necessary clearance for that information. Well, whether you remember it or not, it's here!... Somewhere... probably won't be too hard to find.

But getting your hands sliced clean off might not be that interesting in itself, which raises the question, has anyone ever even tried the candies in SCP-330? Who knows! All we know is that they've taken on a very peculiar new appearance and are awaiting hungry trick-or-treaters! So why not go on up ahead and take another trip down to the facility and see if any of its handful of goodies fit your appetite. But beware, it's only a matter of time until SCP-330 and all of its content are but a distant memory of a different reality. Oh, and of course, take no more than two, please!!

Check out the teaser trailer:

Contents

This special, limited-time event introduces one new SCP, two new areas, three new SCP variants and nine new items! All of the new content is exclusively accessible through the newly introduced SCP-330, leaving the rest of the game untouched while remaining unintrusive.

Here's a glimpse of what the update contains:

For the rest, you'll just have to find out for yourself!

This event will be temporary. Come the next update some time in November, SCP-330 will no longer appear and the event will start recurring yearly on the 31st of October.

The Full Dosis

If you really want to feel like the SCP Foundation lives and breathes its Halloween traditions then I would highly recommend checking out this community-made mod by Jimmy and Brine that properly gives the game some Halloween flair and puts both man and monster into their appropriate Halloween costumes:
