Halloween History on Club Penguin

2005

The first Halloween party on Club Penguin began on October 24 2005, This was also i time when Club Penguin was officially announced open after weeks of beta testing. Of course Club Penguin was not like it was now, It didn’t have all the bugs in the system sorted out even the site was changing frequently.

Of course, A Clothing catalog was released but with not as many items as there is now. Some items you can see today in the new Clothing Catalog such as the Ghost Costume, Super Hero Mask and the Skeleton costume. As you may have thought, Many few people brought membership to actually buy these items.

2006

It was a few days before Cp Staff started Halloween that they released a “Sneak Peak” of some spots that will be featured:

How good is the new Halloween party going to be? Will it be a exact copy of one of the previous parties? Will it be unpopular or popular? Will everyone enjoy it? Only time will tell.
