    Nightmare on Elm Street Director Wants Jim Carrey As the Next Freddy Krueger

    There is only one Freddy Krueger, and that’s Robert Englund. Sure, Jackie Earle Haley stepped in as the Dream Master for the much-derided 2010 remake, but that couldn’t shake loose Englund’s claim as the killer from the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise. Yet, not even Freddy can defeat time, and at 78 years old, Englund’s […]

    For a world to live, a kaiju will give its all, and more. For January 7, 2026, is the day that the King of the Monsters dies. That’s right, in Godzilla #6, IDW Publishing will bring an end to the greatest monster of all time. And to help them commemorate the event, they’re bringing in a couple of guys who known how to tell about the end of a legendary figure.

    Godzilla #6 will feature a cover drawn by Dan Jurgens, who wrote and penciled 1992’s Superman #75, the issue that saw the Man of Steel die in battle with the monstrous Doomsday. Moreover, the cover will be inked by Brett Breeding, who worked with Jurgens on Superman #75. Fittingly enough, the cover homages that infamous story, with the fallen monster collapsed amid the rubble of a great city, a tattered flag in the foreground.

    For Jurgens, the death of Godzilla was a perfect excuse for him to revisit his most famous work. “When the good folks at IDW asked about the possibility of a special Death of Godzilla cover that would play off the iconic cover that Brett Breeding and I did for Superman #75, I was definitely up for it,” Jurgens confessed to IGN. “I’ve always been a fan of the big guy but hadn’t had a chance to draw him so this was the perfect way to scratch that itch. It was great fun to be able to contribute!”

    cnx.cmd.push(function() {
    cnx({
    playerId: “106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530”,

    }).render(“0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796”);
    });

    One might wonder why in the world IDW would kill off such a major character, especially one that has been such an important part of the publisher’s line. But any kaiju fan can tell you that Godzilla has died several times on screen, only to return in reboots or reimagining. Indeed, one month after his death in Godzilla #6, writer Tim Seeley and artist Hendry Prasetya will be debuting a new form of Godzilla in issue #7.

    Godzilla’s speedy return from the afterlife falls in line with many comic book stories. After all, with Jason Todd running around as the Red Hood, Bucky serving as the Winter Soldier, Barry Allen back in action as the Flash, and an alternate reality Gwen Stacy swinging across the Spider-Verse, no comic book death sticks. Even Uncle Ben, once the most sacrosanct of comic book demises, can be found running a newspaper in the pages of Ultimate Spider-Man.

    Famously, death didn’t hold Superman very long either, as Jurgens and his fellow co-creators saw the Man of Steel replaced by four successors—one of whom became Superboy, another became Steel, and a third who was the villainous Cyborg Superman—before the genuine Kryptonian came back for real, albeit with an unsightly mullet.

    With that in mind, the Jurgens and Breeding cover isn’t just an homage; it’s also a promise, that Godzilla will be back from the dead soon enough. Hopefully, Jurgens won’t be giving the King of Monsters a terrible hairdo this time around.

    Former Companion Millie Gibson Opens Up About Her Doctor Who Departure

    When all is said and done, the Disney+ years of Doctor Who are probably going to be remembered for spawning an awful lot of drama in a relatively short time frame. And honestly? Rightly so. Whether it’s Ncuti Gatwa’s regeneration after just two seasons, the controversial season 15 finale that saw the (seemingly last-minute) return […]

    Please Let Guillermo del Toro Make Phantom of the Opera

    Guillermo del Toro’s forthcoming Netflix film, Frankenstein, has been a passion project for the director for many years.

This fact probably shouldn’t come as much of a […]

  • How to start The Haunted Floating Festival event in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    How to start The Haunted Floating Festival event in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    flying in the plaza by a well, castle, and portal in disney dreamlight valley

    The Haunted Floating Festival has arrived in Disney Dreamlight Valley, and it looks vastly different from all other events we’ve seen so far. Since this one is quite unique, figuring out how to start it can be rather tricky.

    Like all events, this one comes with an array of exclusive prizes you can only unlock by working through it. You certainly don’t want to miss out on these goodies, so here’s how to start The Haunted Floating Festival event in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

    Where to find The Haunted Floating Festival event in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    The Haunted Floating Festival takes place on a special, seasonal floating island in the sky. While all other events take place around the main village in DDV, this one is exclusive to a special event setting that’s only available to visit for a limited time. Since you can’t fully fly, getting to this island requires a bit of Dreamlight Magic.

    How to travel to The Haunted Floating Festival event in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    There are two ways to access The Haunted Floating Festival island in DDV:

    • The first and generally easiest method is navigating to the Event tab, selecting The Haunted Floating Festival section, and choosing the “Teleport” option near the upper middle section of the screen. You can use this option pretty much anywhere, making it easy to quickly travel to the island as needed.
    • The second method is visiting the Plaza biome, walking over to the central square area with the wishing well, and traveling through the portal. You must be in the Plaza to use this method, so it’s generally not as easily accessible. There are also two different portals in the Plaza, so ensuring you choose the right one can be tough. The event portal is located near the southeast end of the area, closest to the ramp that leads up to the Forest of Valor. The other portal takes you to The Forgotten’s home, the Dark Castle.

    Since there are many puzzles featured in this event, you’ll need to travel back to The Haunted Floating Festival island frequently. Some puzzles even require you to return daily, so be sure to check back often to ensure you don’t miss out on any event prizes.

    How long is The Haunted Floating Festival island available in Disney Dreamlight Valley?

    The Haunted Floating Festival event island is available for you to visit from Oct. 22 to Nov. 11. Once the event ends, the portal leading to this special area will vanish, and you’ll be unable to travel there anymore.

    All other seasonal events return on an annual basis, so it’s likely this one will be added to the rotation too, but we won’t know for sure until October 2026. It’s best to focus on getting everything done this year, just in case.

    The Haunted Floating Festival event isn’t the only spooky activity you can enjoy on the island. The annual Trick-or-Treat event is also running, with plenty of special tasks to work on, like the Haunted Well puzzle and Sugar Rush. The Witchful Thinking Star Path is also active, giving you plenty to work on alongside this event.

    Standing by bony fish on ground in disney dreamlight valley

    The Haunted Floating Island Festival features all kinds of strange items you need to track down in Disney Dreamlight Valley. One of the trickier ones you’ll be tasked with finding is Bony Fish.

    You’re only given this vague name as a clue and not much else to figure out what’s needed. This is a key quest item for the Terror-rific Tree puzzle, so solving it is crucial if you want to earn all event prizes. Here’s where to find Bony Fish in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

    What are Bony Fish in Disney Dreamlight Valley?

    Bony Fish refers to Haunted Skeleton Fish in DDV. This one is extra tricky to work through, especially if you’ve already tackled the Ghostly Fox Critter puzzle, as you likely won’t expect to need the same item for the Terror-rific Tree. The tree does want to consume the same food as the Ghostly Zero Fox, though, so you need to get some Haunted Skeleton Fish for it.

    Bony Fish location in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    You can find Bony Fish on the ground all around Zero’s grave on The Haunted Floating Festival island. This special grave is tucked away in a corner near the Halloween Town Hall and the iconic spiral hill from The Nightmare Before Christmas. It’s decently tough to locate, so here’s a full breakdown of how to find it.

    • Start at the Coco wishing well, which can be found in the very center of The Haunted Floating Festival island.
    • Turn around until you spot the creepy grey statues spitting up green water.
    • Walk down the wooden plank path right in between the two statues.
    • At the end of the path, turn left, walking right past the spiral hill.
    • Continue straight until you reach Zero’s grave.
    • Pick up the sparkling Haunted Skeleton Fish from around the grave.

    If you have the A Rift in Time DLC, you might be tempted to head over to Eternity Isle to fish up some regular Skeleton Fish. They don’t count for the event puzzles, though, as the Haunted Skeleton Fish is tagged as a completely separate item despite having the same appearance. The only spot you can visit to find them is Zero’s grave.

    How often do Haunted Skeleton Fish respawn in Disney Dreamlight Valley?

    There can be up to three Haunted Skeleton Fish present at any given time, and more spawn in about every 10 minutes. The respawn timer doesn’t start until there are fewer than three present, so you must pick them up often to make room for more to appear.

    Haunted Skeleton Fish is required to solve two event puzzles, so it’s the most important resource to stock up on regularly. When you’re done working on gathering it, you might tackle other key event missions like solving the Combination Pillar tile puzzle, getting Black Feathers from fearless birds, and finding Pale Blooms.

    How to solve the Combination Pillar tile puzzle in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    A pillar puzzle in disney dreamlight valley the haunted floating festival event

    Each puzzle you encounter throughout The Haunted Floating Festival event is unique, pushing you to work through various types of challenges in Disney Dreamlight Valley. The Combination Pillar puzzle is one of the ones you’ll come across.

    This one challenges you to choose the right symbols for each number on the Combination Pillar board. It’s a fairly tricky task to get done, so if you’re struggling to work through it, here’s how to solve the Combination Pillar puzzle in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

    How to complete Combination Pillar puzzle in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    To complete the Combination Pillar puzzle, you need to select the correct symbol for all numbers on the puzzle board. The right symbol for each one can be uncovered by scouring the island. Around this special location, you’ll find tiles marked with motifs. The pumpkins next to them help you determine the right order for each symbol in the Pillar puzzle. The Witch Hat tile, for example, has three pumpkins by it, so you know it goes third in the puzzle.

    You can change the symbol under each number in the puzzle by approaching the block beneath it and interacting with it. The exact button you need to press varies by platform, but when you’re standing close to the puzzle, it will be displayed by the word “Interact” to help you progress.

    All Pillar puzzle tile locations in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    There are four pieces to the Pillar Puzzle, which means there are four tiles to find around the island.

    • The Witch Hat tile can be found next to Zero’s grave, close to the spiral hill from The Nightmare Before Christmas. There are three pumpkins sitting behind it.
    • The Bat tile is right over a window in the stone wall near the “That way” sign that points to the Potion Brewer’s House. Walk through the archway, past the sign, then turn around and look up to spot this tile. There are two pumpkins sitting right under it..
    • The Cat tile is in the stone wall close to the Coco-themed wishing well. Look for the corner of the wall where there’s a grave and some floating candles. You’ll find the tile near the top of the wall. There are four pumpkins sitting on the ground beneath it.
    • The Web tile can be found on the side of the Haunted Mansion. Approach this vast building, walk past the Pale Blooms, and head around the right side. Just before you reach the Pillar puzzle, look left to spot the tile. There’s one pumpkin sitting underneath it.

    The Haunted Floating Festival Pillar puzzle solution in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    The solution to the Combination Pillar puzzle in The Haunted Floating Festival event is:

    • I – Web
    • II – Bat
    • III – Witch Hat
    • IV – Cat

    Rotate each tile until you get the Web under the first number, the Bat under the second number, the Witch Hat under the third number, and the Cat under the fourth number. You can turn the tiles as many times as needed, even if you accidentally go past the right symbol, as long as you eventually get all of the motifs where they need to be.

    Combination Pillar puzzle reward in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    Successfully completing the Combination Pillar puzzle unlocks the Haunted Festival Dress as a reward. It’s a festive black, orange, and white dress adorned with Halloween symbols like pumpkins and spiderwebs. This is the only clothing item you can get as a prize throughout the event, so this task is certainly one worth finishing.

    With this puzzle complete, you can move on to tackling other spooky festivities around the valley. Next, you might work on key Trick-or-Treat event tasks like the Haunted Well puzzle and Sugar Rush. There’s also the Witchful Thinking Star Path to work on, with plenty of tricky missions to get done, like crafting any refinement item and collecting some shoreline shellfish.

    The Haunted Floating Island Festival features all kinds of strange items you need to track down in Disney Dreamlight Valley. One of the trickier ones you’ll be tasked with finding is Bony Fish.

    You’re only given this vague name as a clue and not much else to figure out what’s needed. This is a key quest item for the Terror-rific Tree puzzle, so solving it is crucial if you want to earn all event prizes. Here’s where to find Bony Fish in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

    What are Bony Fish in Disney Dreamlight Valley?

    Bony Fish refers to Haunted Skeleton Fish in DDV. This one is extra tricky to work through, especially if you’ve already tackled the Ghostly Fox Critter puzzle, as you likely won’t expect to need the same item for the Terror-rific Tree. The tree does want to consume the same food as the Ghostly Zero Fox, though, so you need to get some Haunted Skeleton Fish for it.

  • How to get Black Feathers from fearless birds in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    How to get Black Feathers from fearless birds in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    Flying next to a scarecrow and some haunted crow feathers in disney dreamlight valley

    There are many tricky puzzles waiting to be solved throughout The Haunted Floating Festival event. One of them involves a hungry Terror-rific Tree that demands some Black Feathers from fearless birds.

    You’re only given this vague clue to work with, so figuring out what the Black Feathers are and where to find them can be fairly tricky. If this event task has you stumped, here’s how to get Black Feathers from fearless birds in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

    What are Black Feathers from fearless birds in Disney Dreamlight Valley?

    Black Feathers from fearless birds are Haunted Crow Feathers in DDV. This item is exclusively available in The Haunted Floating Festival event and can only be found around the special island.

    You’re looking for small black feathers surrounded by golden sparkles. They’re pretty tiny and easy to miss, so even when you know what you’re looking for, tracking them down is a fairly tricky task.

    Black Feathers from fearless birds location in Disney Dreamlight Valley

    You can fund the Haunted Crow Feathers you need to feed the Terror-rific Tree on the ground by a scarecrow near the garden. The Haunted Floating Festival island is fairly large and quite a maze to navigate, so pinpointing the right spot can be tricky. Here’s a full breakdown of how to find the features.

    • Start at the Coco-themed wishing well in the middle of the island.
    • Turn to face in the same direction as the scarecrow and autumn banners.
    • Walk under the autumn banners.
    • Stop right before the path changes from dark brown tiles to grey stone.
    • Make a sharp left, heading toward the pumpkin Mickey Mouse topiary.

    • Once you reach the pumpkin topiary, walk around the right side of it.
    • Continue straight until you reach a dead end.
    • Look right to find a short scarecrow wearing a light brown outfit.
    • Find the Haunted Crow Feathers on the ground all around this scarecrow.

    You’ll only find a few Haunted Crow Feathers around the scarecrow at first. After you collect them, more will eventually spawn in. They take a bit to reappear, and you need quite a lot of them to feed the Terror-rific Tree, so be sure to collect as often as you can.

    How often do Haunted Crow Feathers respawn in Disney Dreamlight Valley?

    Up to three Haunted Crow Feathers can be present at once, and it takes about 10 minutes for more to appear. It’s not an incredibly long respawn timer, but you do still need to do a bit of waiting between each collection.

    If you’re not sure what to do while you wait, consider tackling other spooky festivities around the island. There are plenty to choose from, including the Trick-or-Treat event, the Haunted Well puzzle, and the Witchful Thinking Star Path.
