The folks over at EA/Mythic have brewed up a special treat for us, or should I say trick or treat for us.  Their first in-game holiday event, The Witching Night.  This is basically a new PQ for each tier and the fun part is that these PQ's only occur within RVR lakes so there will be real competition to win it or simply to block the opponents from doing so.  Read on to see the official news from Mythic.
