It depends primarily on three things:
- Starting date of the game
- Length of the Episode 7 time skip
- Ending day Episode 8
Let's take the first one first. In general, universities in the U.S. start their fall semesters in the second or third week of August, with certain outliers in early September. (If the audience will refrain from reigniting the idiotic debate on the accuracy of that, the bulk of us would be most grateful.) As DPC didn't provide a starting date for the game, I chose August 20 in my timeline for a couple of reasons:
- It puts the first day of school in late August, but not too late.
- It allows Halloween to fall on a Saturday. Sure, a Halloween party does not NEED to be held on Halloween, but this one will be because I said it will.
Second thing to consider is the Episode 7 time skip. I've extended this by a week as compared to my previous timeline posts. One thing is certain - it can be no shorter than 3 days. However, by extending it to 10 days, it makes the episode run 2-1/2 weeks, which is close to what Episode 8 runs, and it makes it more reasonable to reach Halloween by the end of Episode 9.
And as far as Episode 8 goes, we don't know on what day it ends, but the fog of war doesn't run into the next week.
Using these factors, you will have about 2-1/2 to 3 weeks of in-game time between the end of Episode 8 and October 31 (presumably the day of the Halloween party).
For reference, here's my current unofficial timeline:

Well, not being a poll but rather a post to simply "Like"...
...no, I haven't given the post a "Like" yet.
But I will say I like it for several reasons:
- I like that it's a preview of my lovely Nicole
- I like her in glasses
- I like that it looks like we might be able to spend some actual quality time with her
- I like that I'm not coughing up $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ a month just for a picture
Derek is the Bro of Bros, and only DPC can convince me otherwise.
