This was a huge update, introducing new Halloween characters and buildings. Players are now able to squish zombies after building the Springfield Cemetery, toilet-paper and egg friends' houses, and unlock new Halloween quests. Also, new objects have been released: a Pylon, a Gas Pump, a Patio Table, a See-Saw and a Stop Sign - all of which are unlocked on the new level introduced in the update - Level 22. Edna Krabappel's apartment block and Edna are available to unlock in the new level 22, after completing the quest "Staff Needs".

The player needs to be on Level 5 to unlock the Halloween features. Once the Mayan calendar has been completed, the Mayan God asks the player a question - if the player answers correctly they get Mayan Homer and 10 donuts, but if they answer incorrectly they don't get 10 donuts. A clue to the answer is in the season 24 episode "Treehouse of Horror XXIII".

If you complete the Treehouse of Horror XXIII character collection, which consists of the Mayan God, the Talking Krusty Doll, Kang, Burns Monster and the Raven, you get Cash.png1,000 and XP.png20.

The Halloween features were available until early November, between November 5, 2012 and November 8, 2012 - and until that date, Mystery Boxes were Wicked Treat Boxes.

Despite the Treehouse of Horror Update Guide in the game listing the date of October 31, 2012 for when the Treehouse of Horror event will last until, the update's content was still in the game between November 5, 2012 and November 8, 2012.

As of the fifth content update, characters are no longer able to go on Halloween quests with the exception of Halloween characters, such as Kang, and costumes, such as Witch Marge, though they now earn cash instead of treats.

On February 26/27, 2013, a user on the TSTO Players forum posted a list (with links to images) of characters and buildings sent to appear in then-future content updates. The user also found a black-and-white 'unlock' image of Mayan Marge, a character that possibly would have introduced with this content update. On May 31, 2013, presumably, a full colour image of Mayan Marge was uploaded to a Tapped Out fansite.

Gameplay

Once the player has got the Treehouse of Horror XXIII update:

Dial 'Z' for Zombies Pt. 1

Homer Halloween is coming! Let's crank up the "spooky" factor around here by building the Springfield Cemetery!
Lisa There's a lot more important things to build first.
Homer I'll be frank. We're all living inside buildings I, Homer Simpson, built in less than a day. Pretty soon we're gonna need somewhere to put dead bodies.
Lisa Excellent point.
The player then receives the quest "Dial 'Z' for Zombies Pt. 1", which is to "Build Springfield Cemetery". The Springfield Cemetery is free, and takes only six seconds to build. The reward for the quest is Tapped Out Treat.png1, XP.png5.

Dial 'Z' for Zombies Pt. 2

Lisa Zombies are pouring out of the cemetery!
Homer Think! What kills zombies -- silver bullets? Garlic? Me relaxing in my hammock?
Lisa The best method is squishing them with an enormous sky-finger.
Homer Where, oh where, will we ever find one of those????
The player then receives the quest "'Dial 'Z' for Zombies Pt. 2", which is to "Squish Zombies" - ten. During zombie squishing, a Mysterious Artifact is found.
Lisa That's weird. That zombie was holding some sort of ancient STONE ARTIFACT. I wonder why?
Homer Why do zombies do anything? For money, that's why.
Lisa Uh, I'm pretty sure all zombies care about is eating brains.
Homer You need to hang out with a higher class of zombie.
Zombie Watch October 7 Treehouse of Horror episode --
The player then places the artifact. After doing so, a quest pops up, "The Secret of the Mayans Pt. 1", which is to "Find and Place Mysterious Artifacts" - because the player has already placed one, it is listed as "1/2".

The Secret of the Mayans Pt. 1

Continuing to squish zombies, the player finds another Mysterious Artifact. Placing it, the player has completed the quest given, and receives Tapped Out Treat.png1 and XP.png5.
Homer Another ARTIFACT! And look -- it fits together with the first one!
Lisa Dad, I think these are pieces of the Mayan Long Count Calendar! But why?
Homer Stay tuned for the answers, everybody!
Zombie Complete calendar. Watch October 7 Treehouse of Horror episode.
The player then receives the second part of the quest, "The Secret of the Mayans Pt. 2", which is to "Find and Place Mysterious Artifacts".

Then, the player receives the quest "Dial 'Z' for Zombies Pt. 3", which is to "Have Treats" (10) and to "Build Pet Cemetery". The pet cemetery costs Tapped Out Treat.png10 and takes 4 hours to build.

Notice Get it right and win a Mayan Homer outfit... complete with all new quests!
Mayan God Only those who have seen this year's Treehouse of Horror episode, 75 days before our highly scientific calendar prophecies of the END OF THE WORLD, will answer correctly!
Notice For those of you using the normal calendar, that's October 7th
The Mayan God will walk around your town with not an exclamation mark above his head, but a question mark. Once the player taps on the question mark, a square appears, which has the Mayan God's illustration on it - and the trivia question: "In this year's Treehouse of Horror episode, what do the aliens consider to be mankind's highest achievement?". The answer is one of these three:
  • John Carter on Blu-ray
  • The Zune
  • DVRs That Let You Skip Commercials

Below, there is a notice: "Answer to unlock an exclusive Mayan Homer outfit. Get it on the first try and win 10 donuts as well!"

Professor Frink Quickly! I need access to a high-energy super collider.
Lisa What about the LHC at CERN? It just found the Higgs Boson.

Ray Gun

Tapped Out Ray Gun.png

The Ray Gun is a raygun that was able to be purchased for Donut Tapped Out.png100; the original price was Donut Tapped Out.png150. When Kang flies over your Springfield in his spaceship (after completing "The Black Hole Pt. 4") and Cletus points out the 'alien craft menacing our skies', Professor Frink mentions that they must construct the Frink Ray Gun immediately. Once the player has purchased and placed the Ray Gun
Kang Those meddling humans have built the Ray Gun. We must try to destroy it before they use it!
Kang tries to destroy the Ray Gun by firing at it using his spaceship. The player presses the Ray Gun so it shoots into the air. After one shot
Kang Stop it! Our craft can only take two more hits like that!
Kang continues to fire at the Ray Gun, while the player continues to fire at his spaceship. Soon, the spaceship starts to wobble before a final hit makes the spaceship crash into the ray gun, destroying it and the ship.
Kang Ouch. Ouch. OUCH! I think I twisted a tentacle.
Professor Frink Bullseye! I've put a new Ray Gun in storage.

In the game, once zombies have come out of the cemeteries, they walk around your Springfield. When they meet a character, they turn that character into a zombie. Once tapping on the zombie character, they return back to normal...until another zombie comes along and turns the character into a zombie again. However, Halloween characters, such as Kang, do not get turned into zombies.
