Trivia

This party was teased throughout October 2017 and the Halloween Party 2017, in both the Penguin Style Nov'17 and in rooms during the party.
- During The Fair 2017, there was fur at the Forest near the blue arrow sign.
- During the Halloween Party 2017, there were pawprints at the Dock.
- Starting on November 10, more fur and notes about Gary going missing were found at the Ski Village and the Town.
During Gary's final visit to the Halloween Party 2017, Herbert kidnapped him.
It was the second EPF operation In Club Penguin Rewritten, after Operation: Hibernation during the Mountain Expedition 2017.
This was currently the longest party on Club Penguin Rewritten, lasting a full 3 weeks.
During the party, Herbert hijacked the official Club Penguin Rewritten twitter and the blog.
The Club Penguin Times was changed to the "Herbert Times" at the beginning of the party.
The puffles at the Dock had their modern style, but later on they were changed to have their original design. Similar to the ones at the Pet Shop as well as those that players own.
There are six different phases of entering Herbert's Base.
There is a glitch originating from original Club Penguin which allows you to enter Herbert's Base early.
- The Club Penguin Rewritten team were notified of this and made it so you could still get in but could not move around the room.
- It has been said that penguins seen performing this glitch may be kicked/banned by moderators.
During the party, the entrance to the PSA HQ was closed off, most likely because of the damage on the pillar where the entrance was.
- It was, however, still accessible through the PSA Spy Phone's teleportation feature. The room, like the rest of the Everyday Phoning Facility, was on fire. It was impossible to leave through the normal exit.
This party caused the Dig Out the Island event, which was due to the amount of snow Herbert had caused to build upon the island. The event began the day following the end of Operation: Blackout.
