The Spooky Seasonal Hub is back!
As the evenings grow darker and the air turns crisp, the Land of Harvest once again awakens with the crackle of bonfires, rustling cornfields, and just a hint of eerie magic. The Horsemens camp is back in full swing, and theyre calling all adventurers to celebrate the season with spooky quests, cozy harvest vibes, and a few bone-chilling surprises.
This year, Harvest Hollow expands with a brand-new quest, extra skilling activities, and plenty of new rewards to chase alongside your returning favourites.
The festivities run from October 13th to November 10th. Step through the portal in Burthorpe, travel by Lodestone, or use the Event Tab to join the Hollow before the season fades into the mist once more.
Guys and Dolls
Join Guy the gnome ghost and Doyle the scarecrow as they prepare the Hollow for its autumn festivities. In this years story quest, Guys and Dolls, youll be lending a hand (and a little Halloween spirit) to get two new skilling activities off the ground:
Gourd Times Ahead
Bring your pumpkins to life in true seasonal style. Nurture them in the Hollows new patch, watch them grow into plump, glowing gourds, and earn Farming XP alongside a harvest of Spooky Tokens. Just be careful... not everything that sprouts here stays ordinary for long
Lightmare On Hollow Street
Stoke multicoloured flames that light up the Hollow. Each bonfire burns with its own eerie glow. Each log you feed the fire grants Firemaking XP and Spooky Tokens. The perfect excuse to bask in the glow of the festival.
Skilling Activities & Tokens
Once unlocked, you can train Farming and Firemaking right in Harvest Hollow, earning XP while gathering Spooky Tokens. These tokens can be spent in Reynolds Harvest Boon shop for seasonal goodies which are also getting a seasonal refresh! Alongside the many rewards from last year, you can now pick up a true throwback: the Witch/Warlock outfit from Halloween 2008, available once more for Spooky Tokens.
Of course, all the familiar activities from 2024 return too. Summoning, Thieving, Archaeology, Prayer, and moreso theres no shortage of ways to skill in style.
The Amaize Maize Maze
The Maize Maze makes its return. Complete with the terrifying Phosphosseous, Solak-O'-Lantern and Skaraxxi with the same chance to collect Spoils packed with Spooky Tokens, Clan Confections, and unique cosmetic drops. This year weve added some quality-of-life touches and are experimenting with new boss rotations to keep the experience fresh.
Clan Ceremony Bonfires!
Every Sunday at 20:00 Game Time, the clans gather for their weekly ceremony around the bonfire. Hand in your hard-earned Clan Confections to contribute, and youll earn weekly goodies in return.
This years ceremonies introduce brand new rewards alongside the usual celebrations:
- Reaping Scythe (wieldable cosmetic).
- Sparkler (wieldable cosmetic).
- Wicker Boy Pet (flaming and non-flaming variants).
See you by the bonfire, Scapers and dont forget to bring your scariest outfit! 🎃🕯️
Signed, Sealed... Not delivered
Postie Pete has dropped in to Harvest Hollow and has brought with him the Parcels from the Dead!
From October 13th to November 10th, youll be able to collect Last Wills from the dearly departed as you go about your adventureswhether youre skilling, completing Daily Challenges, or cracking open Treasure Hunter keys.
Once youve gathered a few, bring them over to the Petes in the Seasonal Hub. There, you can trade them in for Forgotten Belongingsthe mixed-up possessions of the recently (and not-so-recently) deceased that have found their way into Lost Property.
Forgotten Belongings come in five varieties: Small (White), Medium (Blue), Large (Purple), Soulful (Gold) and a new one this time around, Death's Forgotten Belongings which is chock full of previous rewards such as Pestilent Torva Override and new rewards like alternate colour variants for the Ensouled Pumpkin mask in black or red!
The other Belongings feature a variety of spooky and postal theme rewards including a new Red colour variant of the Soul Witch robes!
Alongside returning rewards such as the Soul Dye, which can be found in any of the Belongings but is guaranteed from the Soulful Belongings!
New Account Security tab!
Weve added a brand-new Security tab to the Jagex Launcher! If your account is missing key protections (like a TOTP authenticator app or backup codes), this tab will appear to prompt you to strengthen your security setup.
We continue to invest in new features for players with Jagex Accounts. If you haven't done so yet, upgrade to a Jagex Account to ensure your progress is secure. And dont forget to secure your email with two-factor authentication for that essential layer of defense.
