HYPEX, a prominent Fortnite leaker, revealed a new skin called 'Dancefloor Soldier' would be released with the new Halloween update, and it has an in-game description which states:

"He showed up to the party a couple of centuries earlier than expected. Dancefloor Soldier owners who take part in the Nightmare Party on October 31st will receive an exclusive J Balvin style!"

With this, many gamers believed that it could be a free skin given to the players if they attended the Nightmare Party on October 31st. However, it was debunked by Spooky Nutella on her Twitter.

The outfit isn't free, didn't say that at all. What i'm saying is that it's a new cosmetic. Got renamed probably from Party Trooper To Dance Floor solider. not confirmed yet.

Shortly after that, FireMonkey tweeted out that the Russian news page accidentally revealed that Fortnitemares this year would have a theme named 'The revenge of Midas.' This created many speculations and theories about Midas and how he would be making a ghostly entrance to the island. Fans are hyping up the event, as the community's beloved character is now partially confirmed to appear in the event.

The current design of the battle bus is activated until Wednesday at 3am ET. At that time it must be replaced by another battle bus design.So there is a chance that we'll have a downtime this week, in which the new battle bus stage (or Fortnitemares battle bus) will be added!

Moreover, to end things off, another leaker revealed that the current Battle Bus design is set to deactivate on Wednesday at 3 am ET. Thus, it might get replaced with the Halloween update, and the Battle Bus might get a spooky revamp to its design. Till then, we'll have to wait until the next update drops in the game.
