The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt modding community is embracing spooky season by releasing a slew of Halloween-themed mods for the beloved role-playing game.
October is now upon us and NexusMods users are getting ready for All Hallow's Eve by turning the nine-year-old The Witcher 3 into a fall wonderland complete with pumpkin patches and black cats, with help from developer CD Projekt Red's official modding tool REDkit.
Setting the scene is ShapranArt's Fall Is Coming mod, which predictably turns the green trees of The Continent into hues of orange and brown. Farmers' fields across Temeria and Redania will also sprout pumpkins instead of their usual crops.

It turns the iconic location, essentially where The Witcher 3 players begin their journey as protagonist Geralt after completing the White Orchard prologue, into a particularly spooky spot with carved pumpkins, black cats, and scattered bones.

The Saovine in Skellige mod adds a quest of the same name that tasks Geralt with lighting the Saovine bonfire in Skellige ahead of its people's celebrations.
This being The Witcher 3, however, not everything is as simple as it seems. Geralt must fend off dangerous wraiths while doing so and even comes
