For U.S. players · Updated October 22, 2026 · By Shivam Das
Quick answer: Roblox has confirmed a nine-night Halloween survival event called The Hollow, opening October 22, 2026, at 2 p.m. Pacific Time. Roblox has named nine monsters, but the official announcement does not assign each one to a specific numbered night. Exact day-by-day orders circulating without direct official evidence should be treated as unverified.
What Roblox has confirmed
In its October 21 newsroom announcement, Roblox described The Hollow as a shared survival event with a new maze each day, clues to find, monsters to evade, quests, and exclusive user-generated-content rewards. The event opens October 22 and has a live finale on October 31. Roblox says players can continue collecting rewards until noon Pacific Time on November 2.
Active Roblox Plus subscribers are scheduled for early hub access at noon Pacific Time on October 22, two hours before the general opening. Roblox also says active Plus subscribers receive an exclusive profile frame and background, plus an item launcher for gifting items during the event. The event theme will remain available to active Plus subscribers after the finale.

The nine monsters Roblox named
This is the confirmed roster, not a verified day-by-day release schedule:
- The Deer — 99 Nights in the Forest
- Seek — DOORS
- Twisted Dandy — Dandy's World
- Piggy — Piggy
- The Inspector — Scary Shawarma Kiosk
- Mimic — Animal Hospital
- Biter — Demonology
- Hiachi — The Mimic
- The Overseer — Warden
Is the exact monster order leaked?
A post, screenshot, countdown graphic, or creator theory can be a useful lead, but it does not establish the schedule by itself. Roblox's public announcement names the nine monsters and says a different monster appears each day for nine days. It does not map each character to a numbered night in that announcement. We could not verify an official day-by-day order from the primary source reviewed for this article.
Presenting a guessed sequence as confirmed can send players into the wrong maze or spread claims that have not been substantiated. Until Roblox publishes a dated schedule or the live event hub clearly displays the sequence, the responsible answer is that the lineup is official but the precise order is not confirmed in the newsroom announcement.
U.S. launch and event deadlines
- Early access for active Roblox Plus subscribers: October 22 at 12 p.m. Pacific Time.

Pacific Time is the reference used in Roblox's announcement. Convert these times to your own time zone before planning a session, and check the live event hub for changes. Access and age requirements may vary by region; Roblox says the event is intended for users aged nine and older in most regions.
How to check a claimed schedule
- Open Roblox's official newsroom announcement or the event hub reached from Roblox itself.
- Look for a specific date or night attached to a named monster, not just a list repeating the nine characters.
- Check the creator or developer account that originally posted a claim. A repost without a source is weaker evidence.
- Compare the claim with what appears in the live event. Trust current official instructions over an older screenshot.
- Never enter your password, session cookie, or verification code on third-party “leak” or reward pages.
What players should do on Night 1
Start with the official event hub, read the available maze and quest instructions, and note the actual objective before following community routes. If the event shows a monster or reward requirement, track your progress and confirm that the task registers in-game. Avoid spending Robux or buying a pass based only on an alleged leak.
Creators may share useful live gameplay, but a streamer's strategy is not automatically an official rule. Use creator clips to learn routes and mechanics, then verify requirements inside the experience. Roblox says creator champions will livestream from inside The Hollow during the event.
