Quick answer: If your main goal is the Candy Corn Rune Antlers, prioritize The Hollow’s Floor 7 puzzle. If you want the separate Mushroom Infestation reward tied to Scary Shawarma Kiosk, the partner-game quest may be worth doing too—but don’t assume the two rewards come from the same task. They are separate routes, and the Scary Shawarma quest steps are less consistently documented than Floor 7’s pumpkin puzzle.
For casual Roblox players in the United States, the smart choice is not simply “which is easier?” It is “which reward do I actually want, how much time can I spare, and am I comfortable with a chase-and-maze run?” Here is a practical decision guide based on currently published walkthroughs. Roblox has confirmed The Inspector as Night 7, but third-party quest instructions should still be treated as reported guidance rather than an official step-by-step guarantee.
Floor 7 vs. Scary Shawarma Kiosk: What’s the difference?
| Question | The Hollow Floor 7 | Scary Shawarma Kiosk quest |
|---|---|---|
| Main reason to play | Target the Candy Corn Rune Antlers floor reward. | Target the separate Mushroom Infestation partner-game reward, if its reported route is available to you. |
| Reported objective | Find the puzzle room, take a torch, light four pumpkins, then complete the relic route. | Third-party guides describe a Story Mode / Full Shift-style task involving serving Hollow Entities; check the live quest display because exact requirements may change. |
| What can go wrong? | The Inspector can interrupt your maze search; layouts and pumpkin positions may vary. | Quest instructions and progress triggers can be unclear; finishing a shift may not be enough if a separate claim or return-to-hub step is required. |
| Best fit | Players who want a clear checklist and are willing to navigate a maze while being chased. | Players who already know Scary Shawarma Kiosk or specifically want its linked reward. |
| Confidence in steps | Several recent walkthroughs agree on the four-pumpkin torch objective, but Roblox has not published a detailed official solution. | Lower: the exact partner-game steps are based on third-party reports, not a complete official checklist. |
Why Floor 7 is the better first stop for most casual players
Floor 7 has a concrete objective that is easy to track: locate the puzzle room, pick up the torch, light four pumpkins, and follow the reported relic route. The maze is still a challenge because The Inspector can catch you, but you can break the job into small steps instead of guessing whether a separate quest trigger registered.
- Remember the elevator location. The maze layout can change, so make a mental note of the route back before you start searching.
- Find the puzzle room and torch. Recent guides point players toward the burning brazier in the puzzle room.
- Light all four pumpkins. Check each area methodically rather than repeatedly looping through the same corridor.
- Return carefully. Follow the current in-game objective and avoid assuming a reward has registered until the badge or item appears.
For the full walkthrough, see our Floor 7 elevator and Inspector survival guide. The “safe zone” claim is not officially verified, so use the elevator primarily as a navigation landmark rather than relying on it as guaranteed protection.
When the Scary Shawarma quest is worth your time
Do not skip Scary Shawarma Kiosk automatically if Mushroom Infestation is the reward you want. The Hollow event includes linked challenges in participating games, which are separate from the numbered-floor relic puzzles. Third-party guides report a shift-based route for the Scary Shawarma reward, but requirements can be confusing and may be updated. Read the active quest prompt in the hub, follow the game’s current instructions, and return to The Hollow to check whether the reward or badge registered.
Our Scary Shawarma Kiosk Mushroom Infestation guide summarizes the reported route and the checks to make if the reward does not appear. Treat it as a troubleshooting guide, not a guarantee that every account or server will behave identically.
A quick decision rule
- You only want Candy Corn Rune Antlers: start with Floor 7.
- You specifically want Mushroom Infestation: check and attempt the Scary Shawarma Kiosk quest too.
- You have limited play time: prioritize one reward at a time and confirm it registered before switching games.
- You are playing with a friend: agree on a route and keep track of the objective, but don’t assume co-op automatically makes the quest faster or easier.
- You are collecting everything: plan to do both routes; they should not be treated as interchangeable rewards.
Deadline: don’t leave reward checks until the last minute
Recent event trackers report that The Hollow rewards are collectible until November 2, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. Pacific Time. Check the live event page and in-game countdown before relying on that deadline, because the official experience is the final authority. If you are reading this near the cutoff, finish the route and verify the item in your inventory as early as possible.

Frequently asked questions
Is Floor 7 officially confirmed to award Candy Corn Rune Antlers?
The badge identity and The Inspector’s Night 7 appearance have been reported as confirmed, and current walkthroughs associate the four-pumpkin Floor 7 puzzle with Candy Corn Rune Antlers. The detailed puzzle steps come from third-party guides, not an official Roblox step-by-step walkthrough.
Does completing Floor 7 also complete the Scary Shawarma Kiosk quest?
Do not assume so. The Floor 7 relic puzzle and the linked partner-game quest are separate reward routes. Check the relevant quest prompt and reward status for each.
What if I finish Scary Shawarma Kiosk but do not get Mushroom Infestation?
Recheck the active quest requirements, confirm that the shift or objective actually completed, then return to The Hollow hub and inspect your badge or inventory. If it still does not appear, try re-entering through the hub portal and review current reports before repeating a long run.
Which route is easier?
There is no reliable, verified time comparison that proves one is easier for every player. Floor 7 has a more clearly documented objective; the Scary Shawarma route may suit players already familiar with that game. Your experience and the current in-game instructions matter most.
