#GhostPit will be happening October 30, 2025!
There is a black background with big circle with a smaller circle inside of it. In the big circle at the top is #GhostPit 2 Ghosts to each side of that between that and the bottom words that read The Halloween Pitch Event. In the smaller circle there are greeb and orange/gold stars. In front of them in a cute sheet ghost and in front of him is a pencil and an open green book with yellow pages.
