<p>Who scared the ghosts?!?!</p><p>In all seriousness, we're sorry for the sudden disappearance. We're extending NotD again to make up for it.</p><p>From @WindstalkerEQ2 on Twitter:</p><p>"<strong>We're extending Nights of the Dead until tomorrow night at midnight. We goofed and ended it at noon today (time is hard). Spooky tidings!</strong>"</p><p>Thanks.</p><p>~Dexella</p>
