The 2016 Halloween Mini-Mission was a specialized thematic mini-mission which occurred on November 4th, 2016. It was orchestrated primarily by [[Ethan Boicey]] and Callum Wheaton. It was rare in that it included planned breaches of mission integrity and direct interaction between simulators and astronauts.

== Lore ==
The mission lore was a continuation of the lore of the [Red Horizon 2016] mission. In the lore, a team of OCESS astronauts returned to Mars to collect methane samples after the previous mission was a failure. While still descending to the surface, their [[EECOM]] systems and those in mission control began to display cryptic messages. Immediately after landing, loud thumping was heard from the roof and walls of the [[Hawking III]] and the craft was boarded by the zombified crew of the Mars One mission.

== Simulation ==
After the hab had been sealed and the mission control was in place, a Mars orbit savefile was loaded and the mission began. As mission control began the descent to Mars, [[Serban Popovici]] and Callum Wheaton modified a textfile stored on the Design40 server, replacing the standard "All systems nominal" message with numerous messages such as "We will find warmth" and "M1M1M1M1M1M1M1". Mission control soon determined that this was in reference to the Mars 1 mission. While this was happening, [[Ethan Boicey]] climbed onto the roof of the habitat and waited for the craft to land. Once it had, a plastic arm was lowered through an access hole above the interlock and loud banging noises were made. This is thought to be when the astronauts barricaded themselves in CNC. Ethan then returned to the simloft, and he and Callum donned full EVA suits along with the pictured masks. They entered the habitat via the martian surface and banged on doors, slowlu progressing through the airlock, interlock, and engineering closet before attempting to enter the barricaded CNC room via the access window. The mission was stopped, and all involved began regular Friday work.
