How to start the Shadow of the Mad King Halloween event in Guild Wars 2
Activities all center around Lion's Arch that has been transformed into a Halloween zone. Check your in-game mail for an invitation from Magister Tassi that invites you into the twisted Mad Realm.
If you can't make it to Lion's Arch, haunted doors in Kessex Hills and several other locations will whisk you away on to the action.
