event

Ghost Stories of Gielinor is the 2017 Hallowe'en event. It was released on 30 October 2017. During the event, players help Closure track down nine ghosts to collect their last moments. Ironmen can participate in the event.

Walkthrough
To start this event, you need to speak to Closure who is located outside of Death's office, near the Draynor Village lodestone.

He will ask players to track down ghosts and collect their final moments in The Ghastly Grimoire. There are nine different ghosts that must be tracked down for Closure, located across Gielinor. They each reveal a different story when found.

After each story is collected, a chat message will inform you:

Heralds of the Apocalypse
The ghost can be found northeast of the Edgeville lodestone, immediately south of the Widlerness Wall.

The Group Gatestone
Travel to the lobby area of Daemonheim and bank everything except the book, and speak to the ghost who will lead you to a dungeon. First, read the Ominous Journal in the north-east part of the room.

Then, pick up everything on the tables, and mine the novite ore and pick the salve nettles. Use an air rune on the furnace, then smelt the novite ore into novite bars, and spin the salve nettles into salve cloth.

Use the anvil again to create a primordial gatestone, requiring three novite bars and two salve cloth. Whilst using the spinning wheel, you would have pricked your finger, causing your ring of kinship to be covered in blood. Remove the ring and use it on the primordial gatestone.

Finally, use the gatestone on the group gatestone portal. Do not drop it!

Always and Forever
The ghost can be found north of Aubury's shop in Varrock.

After speaking to the ghost, search the broken crate directly south of the ghost to obtain 4 candles. and read the grimoire next to it.

With the candles in your inventory, investigate the magical dye cauldron northeast of it. Dye the candles such that you have 1 of each colour (white, black, red, blue). Dye the blue candle white to get an ice blue candle. Dye the white candle black to get a smoke grey candle.

On the ritual circle, place the ice blue candle on the north, the blood red candle on the south, the shadow black candle on the east and the smoke grey candle on the west.

By the Light of the Moon
The ghost can be found west of the Falador north gate.

After speaking to the ghost, it will move outside the Rising Sun Inn. Speak to it again and it will tell you to head upstairs, to find a werewolf in order to avenge it. There are 6 NPCs upstairs, and the available dialog options are: Wrongly accusing an NPC of being the werewolf would result in the death of said NPC. Accuse everyone until the werewolf is found. Return to the ghost to complete this section. Alternatively, Daniel is the werewolf, and he is at the northwest corner of the room so you can just accuse him without going through all of the conversations.
 * Where were you on the full moon?
 * Did you see anything suspicious?
 * Who do you suspect of being the werewolf?
 * [Accuse (NPC) of being the werewolf.]

Family Reunion
The ghost can be found south-west of Varrock lodestone. Upon interacting with the ghost, it will shift to outside the entrance of the Blue Moon Inn. Interacting with it again will cause it to shift to the northwest room on the upper floor in the Blue Moon Inn.

In the same room as the ghost, pose in the mirror thrice. Find a spooky outfit in the wardrobe in the northeast room, wear it and distract the ghost, which in now in the southwest room.

Wool
Outside of the Taxidermist in Canifis. Talk to the Ghost and offer to help in order to be transported to a location full of sheep with a fountain in the middle.

The goal of this minigame is to get to the fountain and drink the water removing no more than three sheep.

Asleep
Talk to the ghost in the house east of East Ardougne North bank, near lodestone. Solve the slide puzzle.

If you leave during solving the puzzle, the puzzle resets.

Saradomin Have Mercy

Do nothing for some time in order to complete it.

Clockwork
