Just like announced, patch 2.2.2 went live today. This patch introduces two holiday events, Brewfest and Hallow's End. Veterans of WoW have been through Hallow's End three times now, but this year they've added something new: The Headless Horseman, a level 70 elite boss who stalks about Scarlet Monastery's Graveyard.
According to the official WoW site, Brewfest will run from now until the 16th, while Hallow's End picks up on the 18th and runs until November 1st.
Also on the plate are a variety of new graveyards for Old Azeroth, something sorely needed (especially the southern barrens one.)
General
* Brewfest has begun and members of the Horde and Alliance can enjoy a multitude of activities, quests, items, and even Ram Racing. As Brewfest is about beer and food, revelers can sample the best beverages available in the world.
* Observed by both the Horde and the Alliance, Hallow's End is the celebration of the break between the Forsaken and the Scourge. Adventurers can speak to innkeepers to get silly masks to wear during their adventures, and much more. This is just one way to celebrate
