It celebrates the Forsaken’s independence from the Scourge, with both the Alliance and the Horde engaging in their own rituals and pranks.

During this time, players can enjoy a variety of activities, from trick-or-treating at inns to engaging in challenging encounters with the infamous Headless Horseman.

Whether you’re chasing limited-time rewards or enjoying new questlines, Hallow’s End offers something for everyone.

Event Activities and Fun Features

1. Trick-or-Treating and Apple Bobbing

Inns scattered across Azeroth offer Candy Buckets filled with “Tricky Treats,” a special currency for purchasing pets, costumes, and festive items.

Players can find these buckets across zones, from the Eastern Kingdoms to Outland. In addition to candy, some buckets might offer small surprises—or pranks!

Apple bobbing is available at most inns, giving players the chance to win buffs and consumables, making it both fun and rewarding to explore every inn during the event.

2. Seasonal Boss: The Headless Horseman

The Headless Horseman dungeon is a central feature of Hallow’s End, taking place in the Scarlet Monastery Graveyard.

Players can challenge the boss in normal or hard mode, with hard mode introducing Wicker Man curses that add new mechanics, increasing the fight’s difficulty.

Rewards scale with character level, providing incentive for players to participate across multiple characters.

The Horseman’s Reins, a rare flying broomstick mount, is one of the most sought-after items, but players can also earn rings and event-themed gear by defeating the Horseman.

Wickerman Festival and PvP Mischief

The Wickerman Festival takes place outside Stormwind and Undercity, where faction leaders, such as Genn Greymane and Lady Sylvanas, lead rituals every four hours.

Participating in these ceremonies grants unique buffs that temporarily improve stats, enhancing combat performance and other abilities. Players are encouraged to return periodically to refresh these beneficial effects throughout the event.

For added fun, players can engage in stink bomb missions, dropping bombs in enemy cities to cause chaos. Successful clean-up missions award additional event achievements and PvP credit, incentivizing participation on both sides.

These playful skirmishes are an excellent way to earn reputation points with faction-based groups while embracing the mischievous spirit of Hallow’s End.

Rewards and Collectibles

1. Pets

Hallow’s End offers several exclusive pets that add to the festive atmosphere. The Sinister Squashling is a pumpkin-themed pet that can be found in Loot-Filled Pumpkins or bought with Tricky Treats.

The Feline Familiar, a cat riding a broom and wearing a witch’s hat, costs 150 Tricky Treats at event vendors.

Another highlight is Widget the Departed, a ghostly companion that can be earned through quests or by collecting Candy Buckets scattered across Azeroth’s inns.

2. Mounts

Mount collectors will want to participate in the Hallow’s End event to earn limited-time mounts. The Horseman’s Reins, a rare flying mount, is a highly sought-after drop from the Headless Horseman dungeon.

Players can also acquire a Magic Broom, a fast temporary mount available during the event. Although the Magic Broom provides a unique way to travel, it only lasts for the duration of Hallow’s End, disappearing after the event ends on November 1.

3. Masks and Costumes

Players can embrace the spirit of Hallow’s End by collecting 24 unique masks, representing both male and female versions of every race in the game.

These masks are available through Candy Buckets and vendors. Additionally, costumes for both pets and characters can be purchased with Tricky Treats, adding playful transformations and themed outfits.

Some costumes unlock event-specific achievements, rewarding players for collecting and using different masks and wands throughout the event.

Quests and Achievements in WoW Hallow’s

FAQs

Can I trade or sell the pets and mounts earned during Hallow’s End?

Most pets earned through Hallow’s End, like the Sinister Squashling, can be traded or sold on the Auction House. However, mounts such as Horseman’s Reins are account-bound and cannot be traded or sold. This ensures the most coveted rewards remain exclusive to participants.

How do I access the Headless Horseman’s hard mode?

To access the hard mode, players must interact with the Wicker Man curses at the start of the Scarlet Monastery Graveyard dungeon. Each curse adds unique mechanics to the fight. Hard mode is optional and individual—players in the same group can opt-in separately for the enhanced challenge.

Do Tricky Treats expire after the event ends?

No, Tricky Treats do not expire. However, they can only be used to buy event-specific items during Hallow’s End, so it’s recommended to spend them before the event concludes. You can keep leftover treats in your inventory until the next Hallow’s End to use them on new rewards

Can I participate in Hallow’s End on multiple characters?

Yes! Hallow’s End is account-wide, meaning players can participate with multiple characters. This is especially useful for farming Loot-Filled Pumpkins to increase your chances of obtaining rare items like Horseman’s Reins or event-themed gear across different characters.
