Final Fantasy XIV’sspooky festivities are a little late this year, but there are still a few treats to go around. In theFFXIVAll Saints Wake 2023 seasonal event, you may finally score a new seasonal emote that isn’t food-related, plus a few decorative bats.
The 2023FFXIVHalloween eventbegan Friday, October 27 at 1 a.m. PDT and ends Monday, November 13 at 6:59 a.m. PST. The only requirement to begin this year’s quest is to reach Level 15.

How to enter the FFXIV Sneaky Hollow
After completing The Fright Stuff and A Charmed Life, speak to the Unusual Usher (Old Gridania X:10.1, Y:9.1) to visit the Sneaky Hollow. The Inscrutable Imp and Unsavory Imp will turn you intoFFXIVNPCs by speaking to them and answering a few questions.
How to get old FFXIV Halloween event rewards
There’s good news and bad news for those of you seeking more spooky fanfare. The good news is, you can still score some of those old All Saints’ Wake event goodies. The bad news is you’ll have to pay for them.
Halloween rewards from old events, like 2022’s Wake Doctor’s Attire, Eat Pumpkin Cookie emote, and Authentic Caged Wisp housing items, are available in the Mog Station. There’s also the Clowning Around face paint, and Magic Trick emote, both of which grew quite popular with the MMO’s community. But personally, I’ve gotta recommend theAuthentic Pumpkin Flower Vase. It’s $5, kind of gross for a single in-game housing item, but it’s among my favorite decorations.
There’s not much to the MMO’s Halloween event this year, and this one came particularly late in the season. Perhaps it’s due to theDawntrailFan Fest tourorFinal Fantasy XIV’sbusy schedule of 10-year Anniversary celebrations. Whatever the case, these shorter, lackluster seasonal events do happen from time to time. And for those of you super bummed by a shorter Halloween event, don’t forget theFFXIVFall Guys Collaborationbegins soon, so there’s still plenty to do.
