The game Fortnite is preparing for Halloween 2018. Ghost decorations are now hanging around the map. Giant spiders are weaving their webs over houses in Pleasant Park. Fans are hoping for the return of the “Skull Trooper” skin.
Spider-phobics in naked panic: Anyone suffering from extreme fear of spiders is likely to face tough days in Fortnite. Because in the past hours, a lot has changed in the game. Apparently, Fortnite is already preparing for Halloween.
Those with arachnophobia are strongly advised to avoid Pleasant Park in Fortnite.
This is how Fortnite decorates its map for “Halloween”:
- In the Tilted Towers, ghosts are hanging from the streetlights
- In Pleasant Park, it gets really spooky – there is a wooden house covered from top to bottom with cobwebs and a gigantic spider is hanging out in front of the house
- At Fatal Fields, ghost decorations are hanging around a windmill
- In Pleasant Park, there are pumpkin heads and a fog machine in front of a house – spreading Halloween vibes in Fortnite
- In the rocket silo, treasure chests are now hanging in spider nests
- and in Retail Row, a Halloween shop has opened. There you can find all sorts of Halloween toys. They light up when you get close.
Fans spot: On Reddit, the cobwebs are being jokingly commented on. It says, “No wonder cobwebs appear there. That’s one of the deadest houses on the map.” So a house where nothing ever happens: no good loot, no exciting fights.
Ghost Town in Fortnite
Is Fortnite turning the map into a ghost town? It is assumed that Fortnite will gradually trim the map more for Halloween. The cobwebs, giant spiders, and ghost costumes might just be the beginning.

What is this leading to? Halloween is on October 31 in the USA, which is about 4 weeks away. It is likely that the map will continue to change by then. Especially since there are currently more events ongoing.
Fortnite makes a lot out of its events
This skin is what fans are looking forward to: Fortnite is known for celebrating seasonal events like Halloween. The fans of Fortnite are particularly excited that a certain skin is coming back. Fans are waiting for the “Skull Trooper” to return.
The Skull Trooper also appeared in the trailer for Season 6. Fans want to take this as a hint that it is coming back. Originally, the Skull Trooper was a skin for Halloween 2017. At that time, “Fortnite Battle Royale” was just fresh and very few were playing it back then.
The skin is therefore considered one of the most sought-after in Fortnite. Recently, other “sought-after” skins have also returned:
