How to Trick or Treat in WoW
Once an hour, players can talk to an Innkeeper to be trick or treated; treats come in the form of Treat Bags, which contain any of the following items when opened:
But with treats, there have to be tricks – if a player is tricked the innkeeper could turn them into a frog, ghost, Mini-Diablo, kitten or more for a few minutes and can’t be clicked out of.
Additionally, you’ll be able to findCandy Bucketsat most of the Inns across Azeroth and the Outland. By looting these you’ll get aHandful of Candy, which can contain the same prizes as Trick or Treating.

Hallow’s End World Drop bags
There are now two Halloween-themed bags that can be dropped by high-level Elite mobs throughout the world, theJack-o’-Lanternand thePumpkin Bag. Both bind on pickup, but aren’t unique, so you could potentially have more than one.
Putting out fires in TBC Classic Hallow’s End
There are two different types of quests to put out fires for Hallow’s End, the practice quests (Fire Brigade Practicefor the Alliance, andFire Trainingfor the Horde) reward candy, whileStop the Fires!has the chance to drop the Magic Broom mount.
For Stop the Fires! once you’ve put out all of the fires started by the Shade of the Horseman, a large, lootable jack-o-lantern will appear on the ground, which you can loot. It’s here you’ll have a chance to grab the Magic Broom mount or its swift version. These only stay in your inventory for 14 days, but they’re very cool and very spooky.
Hallow’s End TBC experience and reputation buff
TheInvocation of the Wickermanis great for grinding and raiding, as it grants a 10% boost to rep gain and experience for two hours. It’s possible for Horde and Alliance players to get, but it’s much easier for the Horde.
All Horde players have to do is loot theWickerman Emberat the base of the statue located outside of the Undercity in Tirisfal Glades. Using the Ember will give you the 2-hour buff, and you’re off and running.
Alliance players can also get it but it’s a bit tougher. They’ll need to kill a lvl 60 EliteWickerman Guardian by the statue.After it’s dead, it’ll drop theEmberyou can then use for the buff.
The Headless Horseman
Finally, one of the biggest draws to the Hallow’s End event is the Headless Horseman, and all of the loot he has on offer. Players level 65 and up can grabThe Headless Horsemanquests and go to the Scarlett Monastery’s Graveyard to fight theHeadless Horsemanand theHead of the Horseman.
Each player will be able to summonHeadlessHorsemanonce per day, so if you’re in a party of five, you could summon it up to five different times for a better chance at some rare loot. These include rings, gear, temporary mounts, a companion pet, andThe Horseman’s Reigns, which allow you to summon his mount, and are permanent. The full list is down below:
The Horseman is also where you can pick up the Sinister Sqaushling pumpkin pet, so if you want your own spooky companion, you better get a group together and start grinding.
