Monday, 14 October 2024, Cambridge, UK. Prepare for a frightfully fun adventure and set off on a spine-chilling quest to reinvigorate Gielinor’s spooky spirit in RuneScape’s Harvest Hollow Halloween Event, available in-game to all RuneScape players from today until November 4th.
Explore the Harvest Hollow, a creepy new Halloween hub full of pumpkins, candles, campfires and, er, tentacles, as you team up with one of the Five Horsemen of The Horseman clan for three weeks of hair-raising fun.
Travel across Gielinor to frighten some familiar faces and reinvigorate them with Halloween spirit in the new seasonal quest ‘Field of Screams’, as you take on a series of challenges set by the fearsome captains of The Horsemen clan to prove your passion for all things scary.

Set off on a terrifying trail through the Maize Maze, traversing fickle Agility shortcuts to capture dastardly implings and come face-to-face with three different bosses during the course of the event. Defeat each boss to get your hands on some Spooky Tokens, Clan Confections, and elusive Boss Drops.
Take part in some frightful seasonal activities to boost your experience in Archaeology, Thieving, Prayer and Summoning, and huddle up with your team in a weekly ceremony, where rewards will be granted to each player who contributes Clan Confections to their team’s tally.
Speaking of rewards, discover terrifying new treats and returning classics, including new Horsemen Uniforms for each of the team captains, the new Ring of Frank, Frank's Shield, new Reaper Masks, new Boss Pet Skins, and two new pets – the Spirit of Harvest Scythe and Horses the Chicken. Head to Reynold's Harvest Boon shop to discover many of your favourite Halloween rewards from the last 15 years of RuneScape, and don’t forget to participate in the Grim Harvest: Treasure Hunter Promo for access to multiple rewards, including a 5-part Necromancy Outfit and Ability Overrides.
Harvest Hollow is available as a limited-time event to all RuneScape players from October 14 to November 4. RuneScape is available now on PC, Steam, iOS, and Android, complete with cross-platform progression and play on PC and mobile.
