Geheimnistag, the night of the Pumpkins - Jack-o'24

The dark moon Morrslieb is full only twice a year, and one of these occasions marks its perigee, when it is closest to the Known World in its orbit. This night is known by many names: "Geheimnisnacht" in the Empire and "Winter's Eve" in Bretonnia; it is "Twilight's Tide" to the Elves, and Ar'Uzkul to the Dwarfs. On this night, sensible folk lock their doors and bar their windows, but for the followers of the Dark Gods this is a night of celebration.



Morrslieb is accursed, a moon formed from the material cast into the skies when Chaos first burst upon the mortal world with the failure of the Old Ones' Polar Gates. Its proximity to the world strengthens the Winds of Magic, weakening the borders between reality and the Realm of Chaos. On Geheimnisnacht, small rifts become large and large become immense, allowing thousands of Daemons to walk the world for one night of mayhem and destruction. Morrslieb's chaotic orbit means that Geheimnisnacht never falls upon the same night in subsequent years, but mortal folk take care never to be surprised by its onset. Defenses are strengthened on this, the unholiest of nights, with special care given to those places rumoured to hold the favour of dark powers.

On Geheimnisnacht, Sylvanians light a candle for each dead family member and then place the candles in the windows of the rooms where they died (family members who died outside the house have their candles placed on the doorstep). Some unlucky villages are so brightly lit on Geheimnisnacht it seems like daylight.


To celebrate this Halloween, this mod spookifies the Vampire Counts turning the male LLs into pumpkin head nightmares. Crypt Horrors and Zombies have also been seasoned.

This mod uses some custom assets with the following credits :

• Pumpkin by justsantiago[skfb.ly] on sketchfab. Model was rescaled, downgraded and textures reconstructed.
  
• Halloween pumpkin by Nick Kotik[skfb.ly] on sketchfab. Model was rescaled, downgraded and textures reconstructed.

Thanks to Hazard and No Skelly Bones for the screenshots <3



Eventually darkness retreats from the sky. Morrslieb begins its slow wane and folk venture out in the new dawn. Some discover neighboring towns razed to the ground, no trace of the inhabitants to be found save for blood on charred timbers. Others take axes to trees that have twisted into unspeakable shapes, burn crops rotten through with pestilence or empty barrels now choked thick with diseased blood. All give thanks to have survived another Geheimnisnacht, and fearfully begin counting the days until it is upon them once again.
