Haunted Faire 2010

Apple Bobbing is a stand in the Haunted Faire in the Haunted Woods where players bob for apples. It is operated by Vanderbart Biggsby. A player can bob for apples once a day while the faire is in the Haunted Woods (12 October - 2 November) for a chance to win a prize or a short or long quest. It is possible to not win anything at all from the stand.

Single step quests

If the user wins a single step quest from the stand. This involves them visiting one other Neopian location so as to receive a prize. These quests include:

• Visiting Amira in Sakhmet;
• Visiting Cog in Cog's Togs in Moltara;
• Visiting Cap'n Threelegs in his Academy on Krawk Island;
• Visiting the Island Mystic in his hut on Mystery Island.

Multiple step quests

The user can win an invitation to start a multiple step quest from the stand. The quest must be completed that day, and involves travelling to several locations in a certain order so as to receive a prize. These quests include:

King Skarl

"To get started, got to Meridell Castle and find King Skarl who'll fill you in on what to do next."

1. Go to Meridell Castle.

   "Hey you! Your Royal Highness has an important errand requiring immediate attention, and in my imminent wisdom I've chosen you for the job. Here's the situation: a special order I placed in Brightvale is ready for pickup. As King of Meridell, I am far too busy protecting the realm and so forth to fetch the item myself, which is why I've chosen you to do my bidding. The item is a secret gift for my brother, Hagan. Therefore, lets try to keep this quiet, understand? Very well, begone..."

2. Go to Brightvale Glaziers.

   "Good day, welcome to Brightvale Glaziers. Can I help you with anything? I see... just a moment. *goes to back room, then returns with a large frame covered in brown wrapping paper* Alright, if you'll just sign right here... perfect. Please pass on my best wishes to His Majesty; I truly hope that this gift doth greatly please both King Skarl and his brother, our benevolent ruler Wise King Hagan. Farewell!"

3. Return to Meridell Castle.

   "You're back! Great, let's have a look... *tears off wrapping paper* WHAT?!? I specifically ordered a stained glass portrait of ME, not that bookworm brother of mine! Take that thing back to Brightvale where it belongs! *seethes* Why, just wait until I get a moment with that glazier - he's going to get an earful, that's for sure... what are you waiting for? GET OUT!!! Oh, and on your way out, be sure to tell someone from the kitchen to send over a Turkey Diner... on the double!"

4. Go to Brightvale.

   "While returning to Brightvale, you spot a procession winding through the kingdom. As you come closer, King Hagan sees the window you're holding and approaches. "Ha ha!" he laughs, taking the frame from your extended hand. A remarkable piece of work! I can only imagine what Skarl thought when he saw it... I was just on my way to Meridell for this, so you've actually saved me the trip. To show my gratitude... *whistles to servant, who brings over Candy Feast* I'd like you to have this. Thank you! A Candy Feast was added to your Inventory."

Sabre-X

"To get started, go to Tyrannian Town Hall and find Sabre-X who'll fill you in on what to do next."

1. Go to the Tyrannian Town Hall.

   "Ah, brave warrior. Join us by the fireside! 'Tis a shame; I just finished telling a story about my travels to the Lair of the Beast. I'm sure you would have enjoyed it, which reminds me: when we last spoke, you mentioned you'd been in search of a challenge to demonstrate your courage to the elders. If you were to enter the Lair of the Beast and return with proof of the deed, I daresay that'd do the trick! I certainly wouldn't go without stopping by the Tyrannian Weapons Shop first, though... "

2. Go to Tyrannian Weaponry.

   "Hello? Who goes there?! A customer, perhaps? ahem Pardon me, can I help you find something? Hmm... the Lair of the Beast, you say? Well, just how much are you willing to spend, exactly? I see... honestly, with that kind of budget, you don't stand a chance. Tell you what - I've got this spear you can have for free, since I feel sorry for you. Just promise me you'll take your Neopoints and get yourself a fine Maraquan meal, seeing as it very well may be your last. Here, give this note to the maitre d' at kelp... I happen to be a good friend of his. Best of luck and bon appetit!"

3. Go to kelp.

   "Welcome to kelp! Do you have a reservation? *reads note* I see... well, on behalf of our entire staff here, let me just say that we're profoundly honoured that you would choose our humble restaurant as the site of your final meal before bravely setting off to face certain doom at the Lair of the Beast. Now, if you'll follow me right this way, I'll see to it that you receive a table befitting such mindboggling, erm... valour."

4. Go to the Lair of the Beast.

   "Having finished the meal at kelp, your nerves settle during the voyage back to the Lair of the Beast. Upon arriving, however, panic suddenly sets in. Despite your sheer terror, you dutifully continue on, till the moment when the creature lunges ferociously toward you. As if by instinct, you hurl the spear you've been holding, which The Beast savagely snaps in two. As it does so, however, a tooth slathered in saliva falls to the ground. You snatch it up and run like you've never run before..."

5. Return to the Tyrannian Town Hall.

   "Look who's back! So how di-heeey, what's that you've got there? That's quite a find. Did you know The Beast's saliva is a potent ingredient used in lots of healing potions? *goes to get potion bottle and spoon* As you might imagine, it's exceedingly rare, and therefore quite valuable. *scoops saliva into bottle* Wow, nearly a whole bottle of the stuff! Not to mention that tooth you've got there, which will be perfect for fashioning into a sturdy Shield. I'd say the elders will be very impressed... A Lair Beast Tooth Shield was added to your Inventory"

Lunar Temple

"Well, lucky you! It seems you've earned yourself a quest invitation. To get started, go to Shenkuu Lunar Temple and find Gnorbu who'll fill you in on what to do next. You'll only have until the end of today to finish your quest, so hurry along now! "

1. Go to the Lunar Temple Shenkuu.

   "Hello? Come on in... I take it that Apple Bobbing Bart sent you, correct? Very well, here's the situation: it seems my beloved Petpet has run off once again, and I'm afraid I'm too frail and weary to go tracking him down. Typically when this happens, the first place he heads is the Petpet Shop in Geraptiku. In order to get him away from his friends, however, you'll need some Freaky Pumpkin Bites, his favourite Halloween treat. I don't happen to have any on hand, but I'm sure Bonju can help you, though... "

2. Go to Culinary Concoctions.

   "Welcome to Culinary Concoctions, I'm Chef Bonju. How can I be of service? Um-hm... I see... alright, well, I happen to have nearly everything for Freaky Pumpkin Bites that you seek. I'm missing three ingredients, however: Pumpkin Cookies, Pumpkin Pie and a Spooky Doughnut. I'd be more than happy to whip up a fresh batch of Freaky Pumpkin Bites if you could track down those ingredients. Sound good? Very well, then, go on and get going... "
