The news was discovered by dataminer Ink Larry on Twitter and he has found a logo for Splatoon 2 Splatoween amongst other things. The event was in the meantime confirmed by Nintendo and it starts 16:00 CEST on 19/10 until 16:00 CEST on 21/10, and you can pick a side from 05/10.

It is a special Splatfest for the occasion. Should Splatoon use more of these themed Splatfests or should it stick to the more quirky things like Mayo vs Ketchup? What are your thoughts?
