Roblox The Hollow Halloween Event 2026: Dates, 9 Games and Monsters

Roblox has now announced the details of The Hollow, its 2026 Halloween event, and it is live: the second day started on 23 October. This article was first written on 19 October from early reports and was updated on 22 and 23 October 2026. Everything below comes from Roblox's announcement of 21 October, the official game page, GamesBeat and Games.gg.

When does The Hollow start and end?

• Start: Thursday 22 October 2026 at 2 p.m. Pacific Time. That is 21:00 UTC, 5 p.m. US Eastern and 23:00 in Italy.
• Official game page: the Roblox page for The Hollow says it opens on 22 October at 2 p.m. Pacific Time and that the event starts at 3 p.m. Pacific Time (22:00 UTC, midnight in Italy). Roblox did not explain the one hour gap, so expect the hub to open first and the first night to begin an hour later.
• Early access: active Roblox Plus subscribers can enter the hub earlier, at noon Pacific Time (19:00 UTC) on the same day.
• Live finale: it begins for all players on the morning of 31 October.
• End: you can keep collecting rewards until noon PST on 2 November 2026. After that the event is over.

Some third-party sites list other end dates, such as 5, 8 or 9 November. Those do not match Roblox's own post, so plan around 2 November. Roblox says the event is open to players with a Roblox Select or Roblox account, aged 9 and older in most regions, and that access and age limits vary by region.

How The Hollow works

The Hollow is one continuous survival game that takes place in a haunted hub. Each day, for nine days, players who enter find a new maze where they search for clues and try to avoid monsters. The place grows more unsettling as the days pass, and a different monster joins the game each day.

Roblox's announcement says that completing quests earns exclusive UGC and rewards that help you survive another night. The official game page puts it as: complete event quests, in The Hollow and in participating experiences, to earn avatar items. It also says that other games may be connected to The Hollow and that what you find there can help you inside. Roblox has not published the full list of items or how the quests work, so we do not list them here. Creator champions, including KreekCraft and LimaMosca, also livestream from inside the Hollow every day.

The nine games and their monsters

Roblox and GamesBeat name the same nine games. Each one supplies a monster:

1. The Deer from 99 Nights in the Forest
2. Seek from DOORS
3. Twisted Dandy from Dandy's World
4. Piggy from Piggy
5. The Inspector from Scary Shawarma Kiosk
6. Mimic from Animal Hospital
7. Biter from Demonology
8. Hiachi from The Mimic
9. The Overseer from Warden

The list above is the order of Roblox's list. Roblox does not map the monsters to days. Games.gg, in its launch-day article of 22 October, reports that the Deer is Day 1 and Seek is Day 2. We only found that mapping on Games.gg, and The Click describes its own roster as not a confirmed date-by-date order, so treat the days of the other seven monsters as unknown until Roblox says otherwise.

Livestream schedule

The Hollow game page lists a livestream event for each monster, hosted by Roblox Presents. These are the dates and times listed there, each about 30 minutes long. Times can change, so check the game page.

• Fri 23 October, 18:00 UTC (11:00 a.m. PT): Seek x NO_DATA
• Sat 24 October, 23:00 UTC (4:00 p.m. PT): Twisted Dandy x LimaMosca

• Sat 31 October, 16:30 UTC (9:30 a.m. PT): Piggy x KreekCraft

The livestream order does not match the day order above, so do not use it to work out which monster is active on a given day.

Rewards and Roblox Plus perks

• Marketplace: Halloween avatar items are on sale for a limited time. Roblox names the Hollow Horseman, dozens of exclusive avatar items and new seasonal makeup looks. Items on the Marketplace cost Robux, which is real money, so ask a parent or guardian first.
• Quest rewards: exclusive UGC (avatar items) earned by completing quests, as described above.
• Roblox Plus: early hub access, an exclusive profile frame and background, and an item launcher for gifting items to other players during the event. The frame and background stay on the account after the event ends.

Checklist for today

1. Update the Roblox app and check that your account meets the age requirement for your region.
2. Convert 2 p.m. Pacific Time to your own time zone so you do not miss the start.
3. Open the event from the Roblox home screen or the official event page, and not from links in comments or videos.
4. Mark 31 October for the live finale and 2 November, noon PST, as the last moment to collect rewards.
5. Ignore anyone who promises free Robux or paid shortcuts. Rewards come from playing.
