Hey there Trick or Treaters. Hopping by with another rundown of some of the cool new items you can Brew for this awesome Ghostbusters Quahog Halloween Event.
If you want to see the other items I wrote about from the Cauldron, see the post HERE and HERE.
Now for the new items just launched. You are pondering whether an item is worth using your precious earned ingredients to brew? What do you get from it? What does it do? Here is a breakdown that may help you out.
THE WITCH’S CAULDRON
| Item | Spirit Vials | Ingredients | FP |
| Huge Freaking Skull | 1000 | 15 Candy Corns/ 10 Terror | 350 |
| Best Friend Skeleton | 300 | 1 Marshmallow Goop | 45 |
| Hovering Ghost | 600 | 10 Latcher Talons/ 2 Marshmallow Goop | 240 |
| Vampire Duck Stewie | 4000 | 15 Candy Corns/ 10 Latcher Talons/ 10 Marshmallow Goop/ 15 Terror Dog Bones | 2250 |
| Stay Puft Marshmallow Man Deco | 2500 | 20 Marshmallow Goop | 1000 |
| Alien Queen Deco | 5000 | 10 Candy Corn/ 10 Latcher Talons/ 10 Marshmallow Goop/ 10 Terror Dog Bones | 1000 |
| Halloween Griffin House | 3000 | 10 Marshmallow Goop | 450 |
This should help you to see what items give you the most FP for your ingredients. So for those of you just seeking FP, some items you may want more than others. For those that want the items more for looks and/or animation, see below.
Additional Animation/Character Info
Huge Freaking Skull (Decoration): Sits on a 2×2 base. No animation. Just a Huge Freaking Skull. Lol. It really isn’t too big though. Smaller than a building for sure. A good size. It is cool as far as looks. A spider rests on the top with webs strung around it and some brush along the edges. 
Best Friend Skeleton (Decoration): Sits on a 2×2 base. No animation. A skeleton hanging from a fall tree with leaves here n there. Mainly on the ground around it. Two pumpkins sit at the base of it. Cool decoration for a haunted forest themed area. 
Hovering Ghost (Decoration): Sits on a 2×2 base. No animation. Just has the appearance it is hovering there in the air. Cool looking ghost, but would be cooler if he floated around in circles in its area. 
Vampire Duck Stewie (Costume): A cool new costume for our lil character Stewie. You CAN brew this without having him, you just will not be able to put it on him until he is unlocked out of his District. Once you have him, it is just a matter of going to your inventory and creating it for him after it’s brewed. He has a lot of funny lil tasks. He will earn you Spirit Vials and FP. One task even helps to earn Rockets needed for Stay Puft. More on him in a separate post. He says “Quack quaaaaaaack” when tapped while in this costume. 
Stay Puft Marshmallow Man Deco (Decoration): Sits on a 4×4 base. He is animated and the same height as the Stay Puft you destroy. His animation consists of him waving his arms angrily and walking back in forth in his lil area. I really just wanted this one just to keep him in my town. Now if only I could drop rockets on this one and set him on fire. (Of course I HAD to put the 4 guys zapping by him. Would be cool if this was an actual task to zap Stay Puft. Lol. **hint hint TinyCo**)
Alien Queen Deco (Decoration): Sits on a 6×3 base. She is animated. She whips her tail around and hisses with her mouths while dripping some acid. When tapped you get that silly “Bruce” Alien voice and she wiggles her hands together…all four of them. “I like to eat people from other planets, specially y’all”, “Oh no, y’all get back up inside me lil mouth”, “You think you can just up n run way, you crazy”, “I likes to eatcha with my lil mouth too” (really high voice), “Stop, no so fast y’all”, “I wants to play too” (really high voice), “Get back inside, I’ll get you when we’s eatin em”, and a lil “Zoooop” sound the lil mouth makes as it goes back inside. 
Halloween Griffin House (Building Skin): A cool Building skin you can add to your Griffin House that gives a bit of Halloween Decoration look to the home. When in place, it also helps drop an item for Cleveland’s Costume and a Rocket for Stay Puft. Just make sure you keep it on the house to get the goodies. Once removed the time resets and you lose any items collecting. 
There you have the newest items available to Brew in the Witch’s Cauldron. More to come as the game progresses into the last Portal. Remember that these items can be located in your Inventory once you brew them. You will need to place them in your town to see/use them.
What do YOU think of all these cool new items? Brew more than one of anything yet? What items have YOU got? Favorites so far? Let us know.

Why can you brew the Griffin haunted house more than once? Do the decorations change the more you brew it? I don’t want to waste ingredients if it doesn’t actually do anything to brew it multiple times.

I remember during comiccon they changed the harpoons the final week but did give you one new harpoonfor every three you had in inventory plus the payout was much better. Any idea if it’s the same strategy for this event? I’m stockpiling s’mores bombs hoping to get a head start on the next event. I know I’ll have fewer if they exchange but the payout was so much better that if its like comiccon it could be worth it. Anyone else taking this strategy? I’m at 11k vials and I still need mr weed and I’m sure connives costume will cost vials too. I have all th other costumes and quest related items. Didn’t spend on anything else really. Hoping to get those last 2 items I want.

Are there any tips for speeding up collection of Spirit Vials? This is proving to be a big bottle neck for me – I have tons of the items but I’m short on Spirit Vials to complete the brew. Mr Weed at 17500 spirit vials seems unattainable at this stage…
I’m putting all SV earning characters on tasks every 2 hours, I’ve got every SV generating building that I’m clicking on regularly, and I’m working my way through all the SV earning tasks. But I’m still really struggling. Is anyone else having the same issue or am I just doing it wrong?

Refuse to get any other items until I have Mr. Weed. Once I have him, I’ll get Bonnie’s costume and then the rest can go on decoration items! I’ve got almost 8k vials now, and I just think if I get at least 2k of coins a day I’ll happily have at least Mr. Weed by the end of the event.
Also, is it just me that has noticed that the kids all seem to gather together when you don’t have bombs, but the moment you get bombs they scatter? This really isn’t a coincidence, I’ve watched them multiple times now scatter the moment I get a Bomb!

Just need Freddy, and I am fulfilled with this event! Onward to American Dad! *loads $50 onto iTunes account*

Bunny can you contact Tinyco for me about the Amazon update problem. The problem is after you update it tells you to update it again but there is no more update.
LikeLike
Did you message them from your game? There may be more going on. I honestly think it is best the player contacts them for isolated issues so they can go into that exact game having the problem and see what is causing it. Many other players on Amazon updated just fine, so this is isolated. I am on Android and iOS, so me contacting them won’t do any good as I am unable to replicate the issue myself. We report the issues anyway…but they need a game having problem to fix it. If that makes sense.

so many AWESOME things and so few vials to go around. got 11k and won’t spend another one until i have the 17500 for weeds. keep getting close then spending them on others like duck stewie which was a must have. here’s to hoping the marshmallow man pays off big time!!!
got him to 25x today and should get one more 25x then i have to stop and restash smores. saved up about 50 of each all weekend and hit him hard today. will do it again and hit him again in a few days unless i can convince myself it will pay better to stay at lower multipliers which seems unlikely
LikeLiked by 1 person
The good thing is the cost doesn’t go above 30, so you can stick to x25.
I like to wait till I have 20 each of the other rockets which gives me a head start before the next round. Should be able to get two big hits a day till the end of the event.

is anyone else having problems with rockets and jars of potions NOT registering on their tally once collected? I checked today how many red rockets I had and I had 7….I did my collections and I got 3 red rockets but one 1 registered as when I checked after, my tally had only gone from 7 to 8, when in actual fact it should of gone from 7 to 10. Also the same happened with the jars won via Quagmire and Joe – I collected off of them and won a jar of potion off of each BUT my tally did not go up 😔 Really disappointing as obviously I’m trying to collect and build up the rockets and potions, but if they aren’t registering in my tally, then it’s a waste of a mission! Is anyone else having this issue?

Right now I have the exact number of tears for the 3 items that need them other than Mr. Weed who I just got. Obviously we don’t know if Connie will require tears though. Do you recommend collecting beyond the 48 needed so far (in lieu of getting rockets from Cleveland and Quagmire). They were not needed at all for the week 4 items. Candy corn, terror bones and talons I have either in the 90’s or 100’s on the other hand. Any feeling if there will be a freemium costume or character other than Connie for week 5 to save for?

It would be great if TC would add a task for the final round “Cross the Streams” – say a minute in length, the guys blast Mr. Stay-Puft, and then his animation changes to the one they use when he gets bombed.

I’m doing okay with this event I *think*, at least in terms of collecting items. I’m starting to worry about having enough Spirit Vials though, and keep being almost-tempted by one of the premium vial generators (the machine etc.) How is everybody else doing with for vials?
I have 10,540 at the moment, but the items are obviously increasing in price too, and that 17500 needed for Mr. Weed is looking a long way away. Add to that 2500 for Stay Puft which I DEFINITELY want, 5000 for the Alien Queen, 3000 for the Griffin decorations (How long does it take to drop that one rocket anyway?) plus presumably Connie’s outfit will drop next week and there’ll likely be a task that requires a building that costs vials… It’s making me a bit nervous, and I know if I wait too long to buy a spirit vial wagon I may as well not even bother, because they’re long-term benefits.
So yeah, how’s everybody else doing with vials? Reassure me, people!

I have removed all the roads in my Quahog except a 2×2 area. Around that I have used “well trimmed bushes” to form a spiral. The kids spawn from the roads and exit the spiral. They usually spawn within 30 secs of entering the game. Typically I can drop a bomb and get the max of 15 when the spawn. You might have to use a few bombs to put some kids “in the bank.” Let’s see if I can post a screen shot somehow.

I’ve learned to just spend some money and buy clams to acquire the premium event currency generator from the premium mystery box. It cost me 200 clams (mind you, the 1000 a day generator is 700 clams) but I got all three rares and then whatever else, but that fourth gamble yielded the Spirit Vial Labratory in the very beginning g of this event. It drops 2000 vials a day. It has made the Spirit Vial price of anything I’ve looked to purchase an afterthought. I’ve bought everything and have about 13000 at the moment I intend to use for this week. Will do the same thing next event, too.
