Bori Day Roundup + Festival of Fears Event

Yesterday was Bori Day in Neopia, but a holiday for TNT. Here's what's new today:



Sketch

If you plan on creating a Sketch Bori, check out our Modeling page, as we'll need your help!

An Abominable Bori outfit, based on the TCG character, is now stocking at Cog's Togs.




Some bagels are on sale at the Bakery:


And lastly, a Pet Day mystery capsule is available at the NC Mall:








Today's New Features update also provides a tad more info on a new(ish) event first mentioned in the September 2025 monthly update: the Festival of Fears. The description sounds like the traditional Trick-or-Treating event but with extra activities.

A new festival called Festival of Fears will be starting soon. Players can trick-or-treat, read scary stories, and answer trivia questions for extra points. Premium players get extra prizes alongside their Goodie Bags so be sure sign up before the event starts!

Also make sure to check out the many updates in the activities around the Haunted Woods, many of which will only be active while the event is happening!
Today's blurb does not mention a specific date, though the monthly update stated a kickoff on Thursday, October 23.

The various possums in the nc cap are all so cute.

The raining trash filter is going to be vibes for some Templeton the rat fairground customs.

i wonder if they're going to RR the Donna stamp on the haunted woods album page with this year's halloween event

The opossum wearable is super cute they did a great job on the art but I wish they'd given it a woodland theme instead of trash. I don't want anything in that cap except the opossum and I definitely won't be buying any caps when there's only a 1/6 chance of getting something I'd actually use. Opossums tend to be misunderstood and I don't love this playing up the misconception of them being pests instead of beneficial animals.

There was also an issue with the tuft of fur on top of a bori's head showing through the outfit, I hope they fix that!

...I'm going to have to trade for ALL of the possum stuff. Absolutely adore the little critters.

I honestly at first got Ratatouille vibes from the outfit, aside from this being possums and not rats. I think it was the mixture of the background, trash foreground, and the dead items; They reminded me of the scene where Remy's dad shows him what happens when rats get too close to humans.

Even with a fuller view I still can't unsee it, lol.

But I'm not personally gonna aim for this one. I could at least use more items in the Eyrie and Techo MCs anyway. They did a neat job with the Abominable Bori outfit though! I forgot that character exists so it's neat to see some rep (same with Eyrie Guard) since we all probably know about Rasala and Armin anyway - and both already have outfits, I believe.

Did you know that they don’t play dead? They pass out involuntary because they’re so scared!

These poor babies are in a constant state of anxiety! 😢💔

The opossum outfit and the BG and trash shower are so cute together!

Oof, there goes the cheapest way to convert to an Ice Bori with the species change Premium perk... The Abominable Bori is cute.

I wonder if the Festival of Fears will be anything like the Masks of Dread event? I miss Saskia. She was pretty cool.

I just hope we can have a fun Festival of Fears event without all the usual complaining.

Love the bori outfit, the rest of the stuff is not really for me but I can see how people would love this. I am honestly happy to see a pet capsule for once without something you just KNOW will be crazy over valued.

massively weirded out by the decision to include Heinz ketchup/mustard packets and floss picks in the trash filter. They feel like premade assets pasted on. They don't belong in Neopia imho

Can't believe TNT included the shoes hanging on the pole wires... I mean, not sure if they have the same meaning everywhere

That sketch Bori looks great! Just the right amount of sketchiness

@fredajones

@purrmeister there used to be a lot of branded virtual items on Neopets, they were given away from sponsor events and games. (yes, I have been playing the game that long) But somewhere along the way they lost the rights to them, because while the many of the items still exist they have been renamed. I think these packets are not gonna be fair use and are going to get TNT in trouble.
