October has brought a chillingly fun update to Restaurant Tycoon 3 (RT3), turning its cozy map into a haunted playground! The developers at Ultraw Games have launched the “Halloween Update Pt. I”, kicking off a seasonal event packed with mysterious collectibles, exclusive furniture, and new in-game codes.

The Hidden Skull & Ghost Quest

One of this month’s most exciting daily quests is titled “Find hidden skeleton skulls or ghosts.” Completing it rewards you with 8 Coupons—and the best part? It’s repeatable. That means the more you play, the more you can earn toward those rare Halloween rewards.

Top Skull Hunting Hotspots

1. The Plaza & Fountain

Check under benches, behind the Chef Luigi Statue, or near the water’s trampoline effect. Developers often hide skulls near these busy landmarks.

2. The Lighthouse & Pier

Search along the wooden pier, under the ice cream parlor, or behind docked boats. Edge-of-map areas are known for sneaky placements.

3. The Farm & Campsite

Inspect the campsite tents, crop areas, and behind large trees near the perimeter fence—natural cover makes this area a top contender.

4. Roadside Houses

Take a closer look near shrubs, porches, or behind the small, non-interactable houses that line the main road.

5. The Market & Butcher Shop

Peek behind counters, near shelves, or around vendor entrances—indoor spaces often hide tiny collectibles easily missed at first glance.

Pro Tip: Ghosts are semi-transparent and tend to float slightly, while skulls appear as small, white props. Keep your eyes peeled for subtle visual clues!
