Roblox The Hollow is a platform-wide Halloween survival event that opened on October 22, 2026 at 2 PM PT and runs through November 2. Nine monsters from popular Roblox horror games arrive one per day, starting with The Deer on Day 1, Seek on Day 2, Twisted Dandy on Day 3 and Piggy on Day 4. You search a maze for clues while the monsters hunt you, and a live finale happens on October 31. However, Roblox has not published how each monster behaves or which badges the clues unlock, so this guide covers the confirmed schedule and marks the rest as unknown.

What Roblox The Hollow Is
The Hollow is Roblox’s biggest Halloween event so far, and it replaces last year’s Halloween Spotlight. According to Roblox’s announcement, it is one continuous survival game set in a shared hub called the Hollow. Each day, players find a new maze to navigate while they search for clues and evade monsters, and the Hollow becomes more unsettling as the event goes on.
Because the event has one hub instead of nine separate games, you do not need to visit each source experience. Digital Reviews Network notes that Roblox is bringing the experience into a shared event hub.
Here is the key information:
| Detail | Info |
|---|---|
| Public opening | October 22, 2026 at 2 PM PT |
| Roblox Plus early access | Starts earlier, at noon PT according to one report |
| Live finale | October 31 |
| End date | November 2 |
| Age | 9 and older in most regions |
The finale does not end the event. Players can keep collecting rewards until November 2, and no changes are planned after the finale, according to GamesRadar.
Roblox The Hollow Schedule in US Time
The event opens on October 22 at 2 PM Pacific. Here is the opening time across the US:
| Time zone | Opening time, October 22 |
|---|---|
| Pacific (PDT) | 2:00 PM |
| Mountain (MDT) | 3:00 PM |
| Central (CDT) | 4:00 PM |
| Eastern (EDT) | 5:00 PM |
Sportskeeda lists the end time as November 2 at 12:00 PM PT, which is 3:00 PM Eastern. Roblox’s own post gives only the date, so confirm the final hour in game.
The sources do not say what time each new monster appears on later days. So log in earlier in the day if you want to see the new arrival.
All 9 Monsters and Their Origin Games
Roblox lists the monsters in this order. GamesRadar confirms Days 1 through 7. The final two days follow the same list order, but I did not see them confirmed with dates, so treat them as expected.
| Day | Date | Monster | Origin game |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | October 22 | The Deer | 99 Nights in the Forest |
| 2 | October 23 | Seek | DOORS |
| 3 | October 24 | Twisted Dandy | Dandy’s World |
| 4 | October 25 | Piggy | Piggy |
| 5 | October 26 | The Inspector | Scary Shawarma Kiosk |
| 6 | October 27 | Mimic | Animal Hospital |
| 7 | October 28 | Biter | Demonology |
| 8 | October 29 (expected) | Hiachi | The Mimic |
| 9 | October 30 (expected) | The Overseer | Warden |
The dates come from counting forward from the October 22 opening, one monster per day. Roblox confirmed the order, not the calendar dates for each monster.
Sportskeeda reports that the hub grows more dangerous as new monsters are added, which suggests earlier monsters may stay. Roblox has not said whether a monster leaves after its day, so check in game.
For background on the Day 1 monster, see our 99 Nights in the Forest Deer survival guide, which covers how the Deer works in its home game.
What Each Monster Is Known For
The event behavior of each monster is not published. What I can tell you comes from their home games, and games.gg notes that each character presumably brings mechanics inspired by their own game. That is a guess, not a confirmed design, so treat the list below as background.
- The Deer. In 99 Nights in the Forest, you defend a campfire against The Deer and cultists, according to the Wikipedia list of Roblox games.
- Seek. A chase monster from DOORS.
- Twisted Dandy. In Dandy’s World, Twisted Toons are corrupted versions of the playable characters, each with distinct abilities.
- Piggy. The long-running horror game Piggy launched in 2020 and still draws large player counts.
- The Inspector, Mimic, Biter, Hiachi and The Overseer. Their event behavior has not been described in the sources I found.
How to Survive Seek and Piggy
No official survival guide for Seek or Piggy exists yet, because the event just opened and Roblox has not described their event rules. So I will not give you counters. Here is how to approach any chase monster in a maze event. These tips are my suggestions and not confirmed mechanics:
- Learn the maze early. Each day brings a new maze, so spend the first minutes on its layout.
- Keep an exit route. Do not wander into dead ends.
- Stay with a group, but spread out. A pack is harder to chase, but clumping makes everyone a target.
- Watch the monster before you commit. Note its speed and how it tracks players.
- Collect clues near safe routes. Do not grab every clue if a monster sits nearby.
- Expect your home-game instincts to fail. The monster may act differently here.
On the other hand, if you know how Seek or Piggy behave in their home games, that knowledge may help. Just do not rely on it.
Maze Clues, Badges and Rewards
The event gives you quests that earn exclusive rewards, according to GamesBeat. Roblox says players search for clues, and The Hollow also offers rewards that continue until the event ends on November 2.
What is not published:
| Question | Status |
|---|---|
| Clue locations | Not published |
| Badge names and requirements | Not published |
| Exclusive reward list | Not published |
| Whether rewards need the finale | No, you can keep earning until November 2 |
Because the Hollow changes each day, clue locations may also change. So treat any fixed clue map from a fan site as unverified until players confirm it.
A practical plan:
- Check the quest list in the hub. It shows what you can earn.
- Log in every day. New mazes and monsters mean new clues.
- Do not skip the finale. It is a live event on October 31.
Who Can Play
The Hollow is open to anyone with a Roblox Select or Roblox account, and the event is intended for players aged 9 and older in most regions. Access varies by region. For example, Australian players enter on Friday, October 23 at 8 AM AEDT, with Roblox Plus subscribers entering two hours earlier.
If you are a parent, note that the event is built around horror characters and pursuit, so choose a session that suits the people taking part.
Tips for the Whole Event
- Join on day one. It teaches you the hub and the first maze.
- Play with friends. A group splits the work of finding clues.
- Check the hub each morning. A new monster arrives daily.
- Save time for October 31. The finale is live.
- Do not count on spoilers. Roblox has not published monster rules.
Common Mistakes
- Waiting until the end. Rewards continue, but monsters and mazes change daily.
- Trusting clue maps. None are official.
- Assuming home-game rules. Event behavior may differ.
- Forgetting the age and region limits. Access varies.
- Missing the finale. It happens on October 31.
Conclusion
Roblox The Hollow gives you nine nights of horror, with a new monster and maze each day until the finale on October 31. Log in early, learn the maze and keep an escape route open. Everything here is accurate as of October 22, 2026, and Roblox may publish monster details and badge lists as the event goes on.
