The Hallow's End event in World of Warcraft mirrors our real-world Halloween. It commemorates the Forsaken's liberation from the Scourge.

You will be spend most of your time traveling across Azeroth and Outland to collect candy from buckets. You will also have the chance to battle the Headless Horseman, the event's main boss, complete daily quests, and trick-or-treat with innkeepers.

The festivities are spread out across Azeroth and Outland, so be prepared for some extensive travel to earn certain achievements.

This guide kicks off by showcasing the various rewards up for grabs. After that, we will detail the tasks you will encounter and suggest an optimal order to tackle them.

The following 4 new items are available for purchase with Tricky Treats:

• Ensemble: Prowler's Faded Headgear — Costs 150 Tricky Treats.
• Patched Harvester's Claw — Costs 100 Tricky Treats.
• Patched Harvest Golem's Post — Costs 100 Tricky Treats.
• Prowler's Faded Shoulder Cape — Costs 50 Tricky Treats.

Additionally, Loot-Filled Pumpkin is available to level 10 characters and the bag contains a Harvest Golem set for transmog.

New candy buckets are available across Khaz Algar.

Here is a summary of what's new in 2023:

• Candy Buckets can be collected in Dragon Isles zones. Collecting them grants the Tricks and Treats of the Dragon Isles achievement, which is not required for the event's meta-achievement.
• Bucket of Morbid Treats, an off-hand item, can be purchased from Hallow's End vendors Chub and Dorothy for 150 Tricky Treats.
• Loot-Filled Pumpkin from the Headless Horseman has been updated with a chance to include Arfus (battle pet), Windborne Velocidrake: Hallow's End Armor (Dragonriding customization that requires Level 60 and owning Dragonflight), and The Scarlet Key that unlocks Vanilla Scarlet Monastery.
• The Headless Horseman encounter has been updated with an optional and personal hardmode that does not affect other players. The hardmode increases your chance to loot the rewards listed above including the mount.
• The Headless Horseman drops Item Level 402 gear.
• Broom mounts incluidng Eve's Ghastly Rider (the Trading Post bonus reward) are instant-cast during Hallow's End.

In 2022, the loot dropped by the Headless Horseman was upgraded to Item Level 236. Only characters Level 50 and above can receive the Loot-Filled Pumpkin.

For Horde players who have finished the Battle for Lordaeron event: you will need to converse with Zidormi in Tirisfal Glades. She will guide you through the mists of time, allowing you to see Undercity as it was in the past.

The Hallow's End event provides with a variety of tasks to complete, which can be broken down as follows:

• Visiting candy buckets all over Azeroth and Outland;
• Killing the Headless Horseman;
• Completing daily quests.

A number of achievements will automatically be obtained while doing these tasks. The remaining achievements are obtained by collecting and using items.

Tricky Treat is the currency of the event, you can earn it by completing daily quests and doing various tasks such as killing the Headless Horseman. With it, you can buy almost all the rewards of the event, including pets and costumes, which are not available through other means, unlike many of the other rewards.

By doing all the daily quests and killing the Headless Horseman every day, you can gain about 15 Tricky Treats a day. The event lasts 15 days, so you can gain approximately 225 Tricky Treats from doing your daily tasks. In addition, you can get between 300 and 400 Tricky Treats by visiting the candy buckets all over Azeroth. This means that you can get enough Tricky Treats to complete all the achievements and get a lot of the rewards in the 2 weeks that the event lasts, but you will need at least 2 years to get all the rewards.

The event is usually scheduled in such a way that it finishes on Halloween's day. This year, the event will take place from the 25th of October to the 8th of November.

The rewards offered by Hallow's End are detailed in this section.

Unburdened (Alliance) and Grim Visage (Horde) are buffs that increase your experience and reputation gained by 10% for 2 hours. These buffs are obtained by clicking the bonfires in front of the Wickerman at the entrance of Stormwind City and Undercity.

Whenever you complete the Headless Horseman event (putting out fires) in Goldshire, Kharanos, Dolanaar, and Azure Watch (Alliance) or Razor Hill, Bloodhoof Village, Brill, and Falconwing Square (Horde), you will receive Victory!, which gives you a very slight increase in your main stats. This buff seems to persist through raids.

In this section, we present the main tasks that you will be required to perform during Hallow's End.

The simplest, but most time-consuming part of the event consists in completing the Tricks and Treats achievements:

• Tricks and Treats of Eastern Kingdoms Alliance / Horde);
• Tricks and Treats of Kalimdor (Alliance / Horde);
• Tricks and Treats of Outland (Alliance / Horde);
• Tricks and Treats of Northrend (Alliance / Horde), not required for the meta-achievement;
• Tricks and Treats of Cataclysm (Alliance / Horde), not required for the meta-achievement;
• Tricks and Treats of Pandaria (Alliance / Horde), not required for the meta-achievement.

Completing the first 3 achievements, will grant you Tricks and Treats of Azeroth, which counts towards the completion of the meta-achievement.

These achievements are extremely simple to complete. Go to the designated locations (notice that Horde players seem to have a lot more locations to visit than Alliance players). In each of these locations, you will be given a Candy Bucket quest from the nearby Candy Bucket. The quest completes instantly and rewards you with a Handful of Treats. This item can contain:

• Tooth Picks, needed for the That Sparkling Smile achievement;
• Sinister Squashling, needed for the Sinister Calling achievement;
• Hallowed Helm, (needed for the Sinister Calling achievement);
• Hallowed Wands, needed for the The Masquerade achievement;
• Masks, needed for the The Mask Task and A Mask for All Occasions achievements.
• G.N.E.R.D.S., many of which are needed for the G.N.E.R.D. Rage achievement;
• Tricky Treat, an item that grants you the Out With It achievement, if you eat 3 of them very fast;
• Soothing Spearmint Candy, Pyroblast Cinnamon Ball, and Chewy Fel Taffy, which provide overhead visuals ( G.N.E.R.D.S. also provides an overhead visual):

G.N.E.R.D.S.	Soothing Spearmint Candy
Pyroblast Cinnamon Ball	Chewy Fel Taffy

The first time you interact with a Candy Bucket, you will be given the Trick or Treat! achievement.

The Headless Horseman is the boss of the Hallow's End event. He is located inside the Scarlet Monastery instance (Graveyard). You can only access him through the Dungeon Finder tool. Once inside the dungeon, interact with the pumpkin on the altar to summon the boss.

The first time you kill the Headless Horseman, you complete the A Cleansing Fire achievement.

The first time you kill the Headless Horseman on a given day, you receive a Loot-Filled Pumpkin in your inventory. Characters level 10 and above will receive this epic bag. This chest has a chance to contain some of the following items:

• Windborne Velocidrake: Hallow's End Armor.
• Arfus (Battle Pet) that grants you The Lich King achievement.
• The Scarlet Key, an item that grants access to Vanilla Scarlet Monastery.
• one or more masks for the The Mask Task and A Mask for All Occasions achievements;
• The Horseman's Reins (mount reward);
• Flying Broom (temporary mount reward);
• Sinister Squashling (pet), needed for Sinister Calling;
• Hallowed Helm, needed for Sinister Calling;
• The Horseman's Horrific Hood, Head item for DPS Death Knights, Paladins, and Warriors;
• The Horseman's Sinister Slicer, Agility Sword;

If you are below Level 50 and queue for the boss fight, you will receive a rare version of the Loot-Filled Pumpkin that does not have a chance to contain vanity items from the Headless Horseman listed above.

Every time you kill the Headless Horseman, one of the following rings has a chance to drop:

• Seal of Ghoulish Glee: Agility;
• Band of the Petrified Pumpkin: Strength;
• The Horseman's Ring: Intellect;
• Wicked Witch's Signet: Spirit.

An optional hard mode for the Headless Horseman has been implemented in Patch 10.1.7, allowing players to increase the difficulty of the encounter for a greater chance at some of the rare rewards found in the Loot-Filled Pumpkin.

When you enter the Headless Horseman boss room, you will notice four wicker men located to your left. Interact with them to activate personal curses that make the fight more difficult.

• Wicker Man of Embers grants you Ember Curse — During Pumpkin Breath, cursed targets emit shadowflame blasts around their location. Each blast inflicts a stack of Wicker Man's Shadow.
• Wicker Man of Thorn grants you Thorny Surprise — During Vine March, piercing thorns erupt under cursed enemies periodically. The thorns inflict a stack of Wicker Man's Shadow.
• Wicker Man of Shadows grants you Shadow Curse — When Insidious Cacle is cast, cursed targets shed part of their soul. The soul is shackled, forced to slowly move towards shadowy flames. Destroying the shackles frees the soul. Should the soul reach the flames, the target suffers 2 stacks of Wicker Man's Shadow.
• Wicker Man of Delusions grants you Cursed Hot Head — During Hot Head, cursed enemies suffer from hallucinations. Moving to the hallucinations dispels them. Ignoring the hallucinations inflicts 2 stacks of Wicker Man's Shadow.

Ignoring the mechanic tied to the curse will grant you a stack of Wicker Man's Shadow that reduces your maximum health by 10% per stack.

Completing the hard mode revolves around surviving the encounter with the personal curses active and without Wicker Man's Shadow killing you.

Completing the hard mode grants the Kickin' With the Wick achievement. It is worth noting the curses do not affect other players.

Players can unlock the Vanilla version of all four Scarlet Monastery dungeons in Patch 10.1.7. You must obtain The Scarlet Key from Loot-Filled Pumpkin or buy the item in the Auction House for doing so.

Once you have the key, head to the Scarlet Monastery in Tirisfal Glades. As you enter the stairs, you will notice a key chain offering you a new quest. Hand over The Scarlet Key. Then, interact with the key chain to receive The Scarlet Key buff. To enter the Vanilla version of all four dungeons, you must go through the portals with the buff active. If you again want to visit the Mists of Pandaria version of the dungeon, you must right-click the buff to remove it. This is an account-wide unlock allowing you to farm items and transmogs from Vanilla Scarlet Monastery dungeons.

There are two sets of daily quests available. The first one deals with extinguishing the fires started by the Headless Horseman before defeating him in lower level areas (for this purpose, the Headless Horseman is a level 11 elite mob). The second one deals with preventing the other faction from ruining your celebrations while disturbing their own celebrations.

Costumed Orphaned Matron (Alliance) and Masked Orphaned Matron (Horde) serve as an introduction to this small event and are given by commoners in capital cities. These quests send you to an Orphan Matron in one of the following locations (you choose where you want to go):

• Alliance: Azure Watch in Azuremyst Isle, Goldshire in Elwynn Forest, and Kharanos in Dun Morogh;
• Horde: Falconwing Square in Eversong Woods, Brill in Tirisfal Glades, and Razor Hill in Durotar.

There, the Orphan Matron will give you a follow-up quest: Fire Brigade Practice (Alliance: Elwynn Forest/Dun Morogh/Azuremyst Isle) Fire Training (Horde: Tirisfal Glades/Durotar/Eversong Woods). It simply requires you to use a water bucket to put out 5 nearby fires (use the Water Barrel next to the Orphan Matron to refill your water bucket). Accepting this quest unlocks the Stop the Fires! (Alliance / Horde) daily quest. Note that the two-prerequisite quests can only be done once (i.e., they cannot be repeated 3 times, once in each possible location).

The idea behind Stop the Fires! is to fight off the Headless Horseman who regularly sets on fire buildings in the village where you took the daily quest (it can be one of the 3 locations mentioned above). Note that this daily quest is not available if the Headless Horseman has recently been fended off. Also, if you do Stop the Fires! in a given location, you will not be able to do it the same day in one of the other 2 locations.

Simply put out the fires around the village using the same technique as for the prerequisite quest. If your efforts and that of the other players are succesful, you will be able to engage the Headless Horseman (a level 11 elite). Upon defeating him, a Large Jack-o'-Lantern appears in the middle of the village. It gives you the Smash the Pumpkin daily quest, which you can turn in to the local Orphan Matron (together with Stop the Fires!) for a Crudely Wrapped Gift, which can contain the following interesting items:

• Handful of Treats;
• A few Weighted Jack-o'-Lanterns;
• Magic Broom (temporary mount reward);
• Sinister Squashling (required for the Sinister Calling achievement);
• Hallowed Helm (required for the Sinister Calling achievement);
• Masks for the The Mask Task and A Mask for All Occasions achievements;
• Hallowed Wands for the The Masquerade achievement.

The following 4 daily quests are available to Alliance and Horde players:

• Stink Bombs Away! (Alliance / Horde): this quest takes you to Undercity (Alliance) or Stormwind (Horde), where you must drop 25 Stink Bombs. You are in the real city, and not an instanced version of it. As such, you can have fun trying to bomb players from the enemy faction!
• Clean Up in Stormwind/Clean Up in Undercity: this quest requires you to clean the Stink Bombs dropped by players of the opposite faction. They are easily spotted by the amount of orange smoke that they produce.
• A Time to Gain/A Time to Build Up: this quest requires you to take click the bonfire, next to the big Wickerman, where you took the quest.
• A Time to Lose/A Time to Break Down: this quest requires you to go to the opposite faction's Wickerman (just outside of Stormwind or Undercity) and douse it with the provided quest item.

Each of these quests rewards Tricky Treats and all four of them are available each day. Completing them grants the Rotten Hallow (Alliance / Horde) achievement.

Added in 2015, Culling the Crew, Foul Fertilizer, Smashing Squashlings, and Mutiny on the Boneship are given to you at your Garrison and allow you to collect up to 5x Spooky Supplies per day, which you can in turn use to purchase Garrison decorations: Creepy Crawlers, Ghoulish Guises, Hallow's Glow, Seer's Invitation, and Witch's Brew. You need 5 days of questing to get all of the decorations.

When purchasing Creepy Crawlers, you have a chance to summon Arachnis in your Garrison. He has a chance to drop Sack of Spectral Spiders.

When using Creepy Crawlers to decorate your garrison, three battle pets will appear in your Garrisona and you can fight them to capture them: Ghastly Rat, Ghost Maggot, and Spectral Spinner.

When doing the daily quests, you have a chance to loot Coin of Many Faces from one of the undead mobs.

Under the Crooked Tree is given by Hag of the Crooked Tree in Val'sharah. She is located at (35.0,56.1), just north west of Bradensbrook. The daily quest requires you to defeat Aria Sorrowheart (whom you can see only after interacting with the cauldron located next to the quest giver). Aria keeps trying to fear you and other nearby players, so she must be interrupted.

Upon completing the quest, you will receive 5x Tricky Treats and Hag's Belongings, which can contain wands and hats.

This pet is the reward of a small quest line.

A Season for Celebration (Alliance / Horde) serves as an introductory quest.

It leads to Hallow's End Treats for Jesper! (Alliance) and Hallow's End Treats for Jesper! (Horde). These quests are not related to the Creepy Crate quest line and should only be done for the 10 Tricky Treats that they reward.

The introductory quest also leads to A Friend in Need (Alliance / Horde), which starts the actual quest line for obtaining the pet:

• A Friend in Need (Alliance / Horde);
• Missing Heirlooms (Alliance / Horde);
• Fencing the Goods (Alliance / Horde);
• Shopping Around (Alliance / Horde);
• Taking Precautions (Alliance / Horde), the Blood Nettle items needed are herbs to gather from the fields north of Stormwind or from the Valley of Wisdom in Orgrimmar;
• The Collector's Agent (Alliance / Horde);
• What Now? (Alliance / Horde), which eventually rewards you with the Creepy Crate pet.

If you have followed this guide so far, you should already know how to complete the following achievements:

• Tricks and Treats of Eastern Kingdoms Alliance / Horde);
• Tricks and Treats of Kalimdor (Alliance / Horde);
• Tricks and Treats of Outland (Alliance / Horde);
• Tricks and Treats of Northrend (Alliance / Horde), not required for the meta-achievement;
• Tricks and Treats of Cataclysm (Alliance / Horde), not required for the meta-achievement;
• Tricks and Treats of Pandaria (Alliance / Horde), not required for the meta-achievement;
• Tricks and Treats of the Dragon Isles, not required for the meta-achievement;
• Tricks and Treats of Azeroth;
• Bring Me The Head of... Oh Wait;
• Rotten Hallow (Alliance / Horde);
• Trick or Treat!.

The remaining achievements require you to obtain a variety of items. Each of these items can be obtained in a number of ways, which can make things confusing. Therefore, in the following sections, we give the different sources for all these items.

This achievement should be completed while doing the candy bucket achievements, as you will most likely meet many members from the opposite faction, enabling you to use Weighted Jack-o'-Lanterns on them. This item can be obtained in the following ways:

• It drops from the Headless Horseman;
• It is rewarded by the Putting Fires Out quests;
• It is contained in the Crudely Wrapped Gift, looted from the fiery pumpkin, after putting the fires out.

Note that using a Weighted Jack-o Pumpkin on a player already under the pumpkin head effect will consume the item without granting you the achievement objective.

The Mask Task and A Mask for All Occasions require you to obtain masks. Each of these masks can be obtained in the following ways:

• it can be bought with Tricky Treats from Spanky (Alliance) or Farina (Horde);
• It drops from the Headless Horseman;
• It can be contained in a Crudely Wrapped Gift, looted from the fiery pumpkin, after putting the fires out;
• It can be contained in a Handful of Treats, obtained after interacting with a Candy Bucket.

G.N.E.R.D. Rage requires you to kill members of the opposing faction while being under the buff given by the G.N.E.R.D.S. item. This item can be contained in a Handful of Treats, which you can obtain by completing a candy bucket quest or a putting fires out quest (by opening the fiery pumpkin at the end). It can also be bought from Dorothy (Alliance) and Chub (Horde).

Battlegrounds like Alterac Valley or Tol Barad are ideal for completing this achievement. Note that the buff does not persist through death, so make sure to have enough items to rebuff yourself until you reach the 10 Honor Kills mark.

Out With It requires you to eat 3 Tricky Treats in very quick succession. Almost every task in the event rewards you with these items, so it will not be hard to get your hands on 3 of them.

Sinister Calling requires you to obtain two items: Sinister Squashling and Hallowed Helm. These two items can be obtained as follows:

• they are contained in Loot-Filled Pumpkin, which drops once a day from the Headless Horseman;
• they are contained in Crudely Wrapped Gift, which you obtain after putting out fires in a targeted village;
• they can be bought from Dorothy (Alliance) and Chub (Horde) with 150 Tricky Treats each.

That Sparkling Smile requires you to obtain and use a Tooth Pick. This item is contained only in Handful of Treats, which you obtain by interacting with Candy Buckets. It is also sold by Dorothy (Alliance) and Chub (Horde).

The Masquerade requires you to ask players to use various Hallowed Wands on you. These wands are obtained in the following ways:

• they are contained in Crudely Wrapped Gift (from successfully putting out the fires in a village under attack by the Headless Horseman);
• they are bought from the Wand Vendor (at the daily quest hub, just outside of Stormwind or Undercity) with Tricky Treats.

A common way to do this achievement is to use the trade channel to ask for a Wand cast exchange with other players (if they have a wand you need and you have a wand they need) or to simply offer gold for Wand casts.
