Trivia[]
- The youngster assigned to "Tell a Scary Story" is the one that decides the reward for the kids that are sent to "Make S'mores" after that youngster started telling the story.
- The rewards for each level are not set at their respective levels; they can be won any time when their required nightmares have been tapped 200 times. This means that even if the player is on Level 7 and needs to tap snakes for a Spooky Shed, they could tap 200 zombies instead, obtain Bramble Hedges, and level up anyway.
- Since Act 2, Roast S'Mores and Tell a Scary Story doesn't reward with event currencies directly and instead XP is given. However, the nightmares created still give Gummies and Candy Apples when banished.
- M'nthster is fought here during The Blameless City quesline.
- After the event the Spooky Campfire is no longer upgradable, but Bart, Lisa, Milhouse and Martin can still tell spooky stories there. The jobs also now reward standard Cash and XP.
