Apologies in advance if this has already been suggested.

I noticed that there were some themed clothing and weapons for the Trick or Treat event, some of which I presume is only available via purchase with Real World Money.

 

My suggestion (not necessarily Trick or Treat themed, could be any event) is to have expendable themed items that actually have noticable advantages during the event.

 

As an example, for a Trick or Treat themed expendable item, I was thinking of some kind of Temporary weapon, like a Pumpkin bomb or grenade. Maybe this particular weapon could increase the chances of treats dropping more than even the current themed weapons.

 

Since it is an item that is a one time use that has event impact, I would assume it would be highly valued (more than current themed clothing/weapons), and could be Real World Money monetizable by the devs.

 

Again, this doesn't necessarily need to be just for Trick or Treat, but this idea could be used for any event.

The only thing that can be bought with real-world money is a subscription (the blue star) and donator packs. Everything else is either earned or bought with torn dollars.

 

Halloween is the only attacking event in this style, so it doesn't make sense for it to apply to other events. And halloween already has items that do this - namely spooky weapons and clothing.

 

Adding a spooky temp doesn't really make much sense, you're sinking money into a temp that gives the exact same affect as a bone saw or even just an axe. 

 

Lastly, extra monitisation options are absolutely an awful idea. The game has put itself in a very good position regarding microtransactions - they help, but you're not instantly paying a couple grand to instantly outrun every f2p player. Unless you're spending mortgages on torn (happens sometimes) it's just a drop in the ocean.
