“Days of our Lives” actor Drake Hogestyn (John Black) delivered a very happy Halloween treat to fans today: He tweeted confirmation that he is indeed returning to the NBC sudser!

“Happy All Hallow’s Eve!” he wrote. “The Treat?…I’m back in Salem!”

But the Trick? “I sold my house and have no place to live!” he shares. “Now that’s scary! Yikes!”

A rep for the show was unable to comment on Hogetyn’s return, but as we reported earlier this month, since the sudser tapes about four months ahead, fans can expect to see John onscreen some time in early 2014.

In the meantime, Soap Opera Network wishes the actor luck in finding a new place to hang his hat!
