The Veil: Veil-O-Ween Event & Haunted Keep Guide

The Veil-O-Ween seasonal event is officially scheduled from October 10, 2026, at 18:00 UTC through November 7, 2026, at 19:00 UTC. During this active window, seasonal pumpkin-headed monsters appear in the labyrinth, daily event quests open up, and the Haunted Keep trial becomes accessible.

To begin the event questline, follow the on-screen Veil-O-Ween event marker upon spawning to locate the Witch of Veil-O-Ween. Speak with the Witch and select the dialogue option for the three statues quest to receive the quest to find and ignite three event statues.

Candy serves as the primary currency for Veil-O-Ween and is tracked directly on your on-screen HUD counter rather than occupying inventory slots in your bag. Defeating pumpkin-headed variant monsters yields orange drops that credit directly to your Candy balance.

Candy drops are chance-based rather than guaranteed on every enemy kill. Focus on defeating regular roaming event enemies throughout the maze, as special developer-spawned pumpkins seen during initial previews are not standard wild encounters.

• Candy is credited directly to your HUD counter; do not look for physical items in your bag.
• Defeating pumpkin-headed enemies yields a chance at orange Candy drops.
• Preview giant pumpkins spawned by developers are not regular mob encounters.
• Event Candy is spent on statue ignitions, Keep entry fees, and seasonal vendor items.

The Witch charges adventurers with finding and activating three event statues across the labyrinth. Each statue requires an offering of 25 Candy to ignite, making the total statue activation requirement 75 Candy.

Recorded gameplay confirms statue locations inside The Cyst and near the Puppeteer clown boss area. Track your on-screen objective arrows to navigate toward each statue. In early recorded runs, moving toward the center of the map helped refresh directional markers if navigation stalled.

1. Gather 75 Candy

   Defeat pumpkin-headed enemies until your on-screen Candy counter reaches at least 75.

2. Track statues using on-screen arrows

   Follow on-screen objective arrows across the maze; recorded locations include The Cyst and near the Puppeteer clown boss area.

3. Offer 25 Candy per statue

   Interact with each of the three statues and submit 25 Candy to ignite them.

4. Return to the Witch

   Once all three statues are lit, return to the Witch of Veil-O-Ween to complete the quest step.

Igniting all three statues does not automatically place your character into the trial. You must return to the Witch of Veil-O-Ween and speak with her to turn in the statue quest and unlock access to the Haunted Keep trial queue.

Gameplay footage records an entry fee of 100 Candy required to join the queue. Combined with the 75 Candy used for statue offerings, players should budget at least 175 Candy before their first run.

The Haunted Keep trial features an instanced 1/6 player queue observed launching solo as well as in party runs. The arena challenges participants to survive 15 continuous waves of seasonal enemies, with major boss encounters arriving on waves 5, 10, and 15.

In recorded solo footage, player summons were quickly eliminated during the wave 10 Haunted Tree boss encounter, and sustained dodging led to stamina exhaustion in later waves. Reapers were observed summoning minion swarms during the trial, while commentary in a recorded two-player run noted dangerous grab attacks during the final boss wave.

Recorded footage of a two-player clear shows each participant receiving an individual reward chest upon conquering wave 15, yielding seasonal equipment and items.

Speaking with the Witch after the trial reveals a dialogue option to exchange 20,000 Candy for a Dullahan token. Available gameplay recordings document this dialogue interaction only; transaction completion, token delivery, and race mechanics were not shown. Players can consult the Witch's current dialogue in-game to review this offering.
