Trivia

The event was originally supposed to include effects related to vampirism and lycanthropy, but these had to be cut at the last minute due to unforeseen circumstances on the dev team.^[3]
In the fall of 2017 the plans for the Fear Evolved 3 event were in early stages but it was scrapped all together due to the release of a new DLC known as Aberration. However, a different event was released known as The Witches Curse. Singleplayer mode did not include any of these new cosmetics.
