Spinomenal summons Halloween spirit with Spooky Halloween slot

Reading Time: < 1 minute
Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal is celebrating this year’s Halloween with the release of its new title, Spooky Halloween.
Spinomenal’s chilling slot is set within a forest cloaked in fog, surrounded by twisted trees and glowing candles illuminating the 5×4 layout. Adding to the haunting experience is an atmospheric soundtrack, echoing with eerie chimes that builds anticipation with every spin.
An assortment of classic Halloween icons form the Medium symbols, featuring a witch’s hat, a ghost, a black cat, and a bubbling green potion. Landing three or more scattered Free Spins symbols unlocks the thrilling free spins game. Three Free Spins symbols awards 10 Free Spins, while four symbols unlock 25 Free Spins, and five or more summon a spectacular 100 Free Spins. Once Free Spins are active, a stacked Wild appears on one random reel for every spin, enhancing the chances of landing big wins.
The grinning jack-o’-lantern is the game’s Wild symbol, substituting for all symbols except the Free Spins symbol. When five Wilds land on a winning line, the reward is truly spellbinding – paying x3,000 the line bet.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Spooky Halloween captures the magic of a classic Halloween night with spellbinding features and immersive design. Its visuals strike the perfect balance between mystery and playfulness, drawing players into a world that’s equal parts spooky and enchanting.”
