Quick answer: U.S. players should plan to check Brookhaven RP’s Halloween event on Friday, October 23, listed for about 2 p.m. Eastern / 11 a.m. Pacific, while Roblox’s The Hollow survival event is already scheduled to open at 2 p.m. Pacific / 5 p.m. Eastern on Thursday, October 22. If you have limited playtime, sample The Hollow today, then check Brookhaven’s live event board tomorrow before assuming this year’s Candy Corn locations or rewards match older events.
The timing makes this a choice between two different Halloween moods: The Hollow is a shared survival maze built around monsters and clues, while Brookhaven is a familiar town role-play experience where seasonal exploration and collecting have featured in previous Halloween events. The smart move is not to chase every rumor. It is to confirm what is live, finish time-limited objectives, and avoid spending Robux on rewards that have not been verified.
When does Brookhaven Halloween start in the United States?
Brookhaven’s Halloween event listing points to Friday, October 23, with a start around 2 p.m. Eastern / 11 a.m. Pacific and an end window in early November. Treat that as the currently listed schedule, not a promise that every server will update at the exact minute. Developers can adjust event cards, and rollout timing can vary.
For comparison, Roblox’s official announcement says The Hollow opens to the public at 2 p.m. Pacific on October 22. That is 5 p.m. Eastern. The Hollow features nine horror-game monsters over nine nights, quests, and a live finale planned for October 31; Roblox says players can continue collecting rewards until noon Pacific on November 2. Read the official Roblox announcement for The Hollow before planning around creator rumors.
Candy Corn or The Hollow maze: which should you play first?
Choose The Hollow first today if you enjoy survival horror, exploring an unfamiliar maze, and learning how a new event works before guides spread across social media. Roblox says the event introduces a different monster each day for nine days. Use your first session to read the objective, identify what counts as quest progress, and learn how to regroup with friends if the maze separates your team.
Choose Brookhaven first tomorrow if you prefer a familiar town, role-play, and seasonal collecting. Brookhaven’s public Halloween teaser says “Trick or Treat,” and previous events have included Candy Corn hunts. However, that history does not confirm the exact 2026 route, difficulty tiers, vehicle rewards, or candy count. Open the in-game event board and follow its current instructions.
A practical two-day schedule for U.S. players
- Thursday, October 22: Join The Hollow after its announced 2 p.m. Pacific / 5 p.m. Eastern public opening. Spend the first 20–30 minutes learning the maze and checking the quest and reward screens.
- Before Brookhaven on Friday: Update Roblox, open the official Brookhaven experience, and check the event board or latest developer notes. Do not rely on a 2024 or 2025 map as a verified 2026 route.
- Friday, October 23: Check Brookhaven around the listed 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m. Eastern start. Begin with the objective the game itself identifies, then record the reward requirements and any visible deadline.
- After each session: Check your inventory and quest status before repeating a task. If servers are crowded, wait a few minutes and retry instead of following third-party “reward unlock” links.

Not yet verified from the official 2026 details reviewed for this article: exact Candy Corn locations, whether all past hunt tiers return, the full reward list, and whether particular older vehicles or props are available again. A thumbnail or a creator’s old route is not enough to prove a 2026 reward.
How to avoid wasting time or Robux
- Use the event board inside the official game as the final authority for live objectives and requirements.
- Do not assume a past-year Candy Corn location or prize has returned until you see it in the current version.
- Check whether an item is free, quest-earned, or paid before spending Robux.
- Never enter your Roblox password, verification code, or browser cookies on a third-party “free reward” site.
- If a reward does not appear, recheck quest completion and inventory before repeating the whole run.
