Nope, not yet, though there's been some discussion here on things that might be fun to see in the upcoming holiday events!

The only thing I know is that there will be updates; what they are I don't know. I hope that ToT door spawns start using invasion code, for example, so players can ToT regardless of zone. Ditto for the Winter Event.
Expect the same old, same old stuff from last year Coin with the possible addition of some new costume piece. I know I'll be doing just that.

If only it were the same old same old stuff from the previous year. Halloween used to be my favorite event, until they went and slapped the stupid zone invasion code on top of it. Maybe I won't mind it as much this year. Last year I was just so over the "zombie apocalypse" meme.

This year's Halloween event is not confirmed to include the following new features:
* Small children going door to door for candy... Villains have the option of testing the theory "easy as taking candy from a baby" for the first time!
* Baby New Year... dressed up as Snaptooth.
* The new "Throw Toilet Paper" temp power... that leaves streams of TP on whatever its thrown at for 20 minutes time... if thrown at a building has a 10% chance of causing the "old man screaming get outta my danged yard!" encounter.
* The new Frankenstein's Tower Task Force... Heroes break into the tower of the mad doctor only to spend hours agonizing on whether or not it's morally right to destroy such an innocent creature... Villains just go in and kill everything.
* New Snaptooth mission... Snaptooth has stolen all the candy from the children! Save it before he eats it all! Note: If he DOES eat more than 60% of the stolen candy then when the team encounters him his name will have changed to "Soretooth" from cavities and he will have a damage buff from the pain and frustration.
* In honor of the King of Pop's recent passing... each time the Zombie Apocalypse spawns... the entire zombie population will perform the Thriller dance before shambling into battle.
* Eochai will now spawn with a new High Priest named Linus... who is in possession of the new Security Blanket defensive set.
My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw

They really do need to hire Steelclaw. I'd love some of those hahahah!
Please read my FEAR/Portal/HalfLife Fan Fiction!
Repurposed
Ooooooooh new badges!
Union: @Ban-Sidhe
Spoilers!
Those look awesome
The first one = zombie?
The second one = Hydra?
The third one = werewolf?
The fourth one = Unseelie Court?
The fifth one = female vampire/demon?
And the accolade looks like it has some sort of tattered old flag or banner on it...
EDIT: Removed the pictures, as they aren't allowed just yet, and I don't want the Mod Secret Security Squad chasing me

My guess is the new add-on for the Halloween event is a mission arc taking you into a haunted house (eventually)... the other badges are for defeating creatures specific to the mission arc.
Just a guess... It also happens to be something I've been asking for since my first Halloween event.. heh.
Edit: Nope... went back to look at it... doesn't look like a building at all... >sighs<

The accolade looked like tattered sails to me...Ghost Ship! Ghost Pirates! Blueside Sea Witch arc!
*want moar details*

Way too much sky in the picture - it's not totally not walls there - banners or sails for sure |

The fourth looks a lot like Requiem...which is interesting, considering the recent reemergence of a certain fascist organisation.

It's the Unseelie Court model, I think.

Shame, I would have liked to see the 5th Column management up to no-good again. Especially since I wasn't around the first time. ^_^

Nearly the same as last year - except, when the sky turns red, it's Australians that invade.

I wonder what will trigger the new GM? And what sort of monster is it, anyway? It seems to be mostly teeth

Curse you devs! I have like 30 alts "I care about" and only so many hours a day to play! How in the black blazes can I be expected to get them all these badges?! Just tell me that, I dare you!
Really, this is suggesting that there's going to be some new content (oh noes!) and that's always a good thing as it fits my play style. For a few weeks I concentrate on one thing, such as leveling toon X, then I switch to something else such as writing a new arc (see my sig, see my sig!!), then on to another thing, like working all my "important" toons through a holiday event.
Did a search and couldn't find a mention yet, any news on what's happening for the Halloween event at all?
Please, though, let there be some new stuff in it, not another invasion!
