Hallow's End 2026: Dates, Headless Horseman Rewards and Neighborhood Quests

Hallow's End runs 19 October to 2 November: the Headless Horseman's Ghoulish Charger and armor, new Midnight candy buckets, housing neighborhood dailies, decor and achievements.

When and where

  • When: 19 October–2 November
  • Where: Trick-or-Treat throughout the Inns of Azeroth, Northrend, Pandaria, Outland, Draenor, the Broken Isles (Dalaran), the Dragon Isles, Khaz Algar, and Quel’Thalas for tasty treats and currency to trade for Hallow’s End goodies.

New This Year

  • Midnight Candy Buckets: New Candy Buckets have been scattered throughout Quel’Thalas—visit them all for tricks and treats.
  • Hallow’s End Haunts Come to Your Neighborhood: At the start of Hallow's End, each neighborhood will be randomly assigned a theme, complete with themed cosmetic features, candies, and daily quests from Nomi. Ready to join the haunted festivities? Pick up the “A Haunted Home” breadcrumb quest from a Holiday Enthusiast who will direct you to Yin in your neighborhood.

Neighborhood activities

  • Neighborhood Tricky Treat Traders: Trade your Neighborhood Candy for Tricky Treats! Exchange rates vary between neighborhoods, and vendors offer a fresh rate each day. Be sure to chat with them to find the best deal.
  • Neighborhood World Quest: Community Candy Crawl: For 15 minutes every hour, you can trick-or-treat around Founder's Point and Razorwind Shores, collecting candy from buckets that appear outside occupied player plots. Collect 10 Neighborhood Candy from the buckets to earn XP, 2 Trick Treats, and 3 Neighborhood Candy.
  • Be a Good Neighbor: Each neighborhood has a visible Neighborhood Contribution bar that residents can fill by participating in neighborhood quests and activities during Hallow’s End. As the bar fills, festive decorations appear throughout the neighborhood, and residents can find more lootable candies around the Candy Bucket in the Neighborhood Holiday Hub.
  • Wickerman Piñata Candy Collection: Each neighborhood—Drustvar, Duskwood, or Felwood—gets one of three random themes. Near Yin and the Wickerman, a portal leads to a holiday hub where you can complete a daily quest and add 10 candies to the piñata. Once it’s full, start the fight or save it for later. If you decide to “Start Whacking”, a one-minute countdown will begin. Whack the piñata to knock out Neighborhood Candy, then collect it. When it falls, gather bonus candy and trade it for Tricky Treats at the Tricky Treat Traders.

Daily Quests

  • Trick-or-Treating: A quick neighborhood cleanup is in order! Discarded Wrappers are scattered around the Neighborhood Candy Buckets; clean them up to help fill the Neighborhood Contribution bar. The more the Neighborhood Contribution bar fills, the more Haunted Candies you can loot from the neighborhood Candy Bucket. You can also lend your neighbors a hand by visiting other neighborhoods and cleaning up their Discarded Wrappers.
  • Ghost Busting: Equip quest-earned Ghost Gear or grab nearby gear to hunt ghosts before they escape. Drop each catch into the Ghost Tank. Once full, it summons a Shade of Seabreaker Skoloth in the Holiday Hub. Team up to pull it into a magic portal to reveal a Treasure Chest filled with Tricky Treats and Neighborhood Candy. Watch out: the Headless Horseman may appear and summon another Shade elsewhere in the neighborhood.
  • You're a Spider, Man: Place webs to boost your Neighborhood Contribution! As you explore the neighborhood, keep an eye out for Webspinner Egg Sacs. Interact with one to transform into a spider for 3 minutes, then spin up to 10 webs around the neighborhood to give it an extra spooky feel. You can stop being a spider at any time; just keep in mind that there’s a 15-minute cooldown when you end your transformation.

Brave the Headless Horseman

  • “Prepare yourselves, the bells have tolled! Shelter your weak, your young, and your old! Each of you shall pay the final sum. Cry for mercy, the reckoning has come!” – The Headless Horseman
