Can we build a calendar from just some of the formats?+
Yes. The three formats work like building blocks: a weekly company-wide task, solo Halloween quizzes and mini-games that open every day. Pick one, two or all three. Mini-games can be played solo or in teams, on phone or computer.
Not everyone at our company celebrates Halloween. Won't that be awkward?+
The calendar keeps one tone: a fall carnival with pumpkins, candy, costumes and family-friendly spooky movies. No rituals, no pentagrams, no “real” fortune-telling, no jump scares. You can pitch the theme as a “Pumpkin Party” or a “Fall Carnival,” and swap any window for another one from our library if it isn't right for your team.
Do we need to buy anything, like pumpkins, costumes or decor?+
No. No task requires buying anything: for windows where you snap a photo, a phone with a flashlight and whatever you already have at home or in the office is enough. Photo tasks never require showing your face.
We decided in early October. Can we still launch in time?+
Yes. A short run of three to five tasks comes together in a couple of days from ready-made tasks, with nothing to build from scratch. We add your logo and brand colors right away, and questions about your company if there's a week left before launch.
Our team is spread across cities and time zones. What do we do?+
A window stays open all day and doesn't need a shared time slot: people open it on a break, in their own time zone. The shared canvases (Haunted House and Fortune Map) stay open for more than a week, through October 28, so everyone gets a turn, including people who were traveling.
How does the calendar connect with an October 30 party?+
The calendar is the three weeks before the party; the party is the celebration itself. By that evening, your team already shares context: the Haunted House is built from employee photos, the Fortune Map has every city marked, and the results screen is ready for the room. The finale itself is booked as a separate service, and you can pick a live hosted game on the Halloween page.
Do we need prizes?+
Not necessarily. Photo task categories like “Handmade,” “Screaming” and “Not a Cat, But It'll Do” work without prizes: winning by coworkers' votes feels good on its own. If you have a prize budget, we'll suggest where to tie it: individual standings, the department leaderboard or the categories.
What does a Halloween calendar cost?+
It depends on the number of participants, the length of the run and how much customization you want: five windows of ready-made tasks is one thing, three weeks with questions about your company and cards in your colors is another. Tell us about your team and dates, and we'll put together a quote.
What does the company keep after Halloween?+
A high-res Haunted House made from every employee's photo (print it and hang it in the office), a Fortune Map with all your company's cities, personal and team cards for participants, and an engagement report in CSV. The same calendar can later be built for Holidays , with only the themes and design changing.
