Octerror Fest 2016 was the sixth Octerror Fest for The SpongeBob Community, which started October 14, 2016 and ended October 31, 2016. Unlike last year's, every game during the event counted for a teams tournament between the Band Geeks, Drasticals, and independent users, where everyone could play in it, similar to The Super Spongy Square Games. In the end, the Drasticals won the event. Loyal Customers received a sneak peek of it on September 30, 2016, and it was publicly announced October 6, 2016.
Scoreboard
Below was the final scoreboard on October 31, 2016.
| Place | Team | Score |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | Drasticals | 21 |
| 2nd | Band Geeks | 14 |
| 3rd | Independent | 3 |
General
Just like last year, during the event, the group names changed to SpongeBob Halloween related names. Managers, Cashiers and Customers became orange, purple and light blue instead of red, blue and teal.
Managers --> Slashers
Cashiers --> Floating Shopping Lists
Retired Employees --> Haunted Mattresses
Band Geeks --> Band Freaks
Drasticals --> Ghasticals
Loyal Customers --> Dutchman's Crew
Customers --> Ghosts
Nematodes --> Zombies
They also received exclusive badge redesigns to fit the names (except for Band Geeks and Drasticals), which can be found in the gallery below.
Like last year, SpongeCraft also received a Halloween makeover using a new design pack installed by hilaryfan80. It turned everything on the server into a spooky/Halloween theme.

Hooky 2: The Fisherman Returns
A Whodunit/And Then There Were None survival game, which was a sequel to "Hooky" from Octerror Fest 2015. 12 users signed up, and one of them was a killer in disguise, The Fisherman. Users had to complete challenges and puzzles to figure out who The Fisherman was, as users were killed off each night. There were some new changes compared to the first Hooky. Unlike last year, the top two people to finish the challenge were immune from being killed, instead of just one (up until Challenge 7). There was also a power-up store to buy some advantages. Whoever was first to complete the challenges would gain a point for their side on the scoreboard. The winner was Sandy as Sandy Cheeks, who was The Fisherman, and finished first for the final challenge. Sandy received 5,000 doubloons, exclusive Fisherman Coat and Hat for iFish, and The Fisherman badge for winning.
