The nights have grown longer. The shadows are ready to pounce. And Halloween has finally arrived!
The Halloween Events are NOW LIVE in Gloria Victis! 🎃
This year’s Halloween celebration brings several new activities and rewards to the world of Gloria Victis.
Whether you’re hunting terrifying enemies, completing special quests, or exploring mysterious locations, there’s plenty to discover during the event.
Here’s everything you need to know!
1. The Headless Horseman Event 🐎
A mysterious rider has appeared in Gloria Victis!
The Headless Horseman is a brand-new boss encounter created especially for this year’s Halloween celebration.
The Headless Horseman and his Spookbert’s Minions will appear at regular intervals across the world:
- Loot Zones: Every 1 hour
- Non-Loot Zones: Every 3 hours
When the Headless Horseman appears, players will receive a notification giving an approximate location of where he can be found.
But there’s a catch…
He won’t be marked on your map!
You’ll need to explore the area, follow the clues, and track him down yourself.
And for those brave enough to defeat him, there’s a special surprise!
Defeating the Headless Horseman will spawn two black horses featuring unique skeleton markings that players can tame! 🐎
Gather your allies, track down the mysterious rider, and see if you can claim one of these unusual mounts!
2. Halloween Quests, Candy, and Rewards! 🍬
What’s Halloween without a few treats?
During the event, Warriors can collect a special Halloween currency called Candy, which can be exchanged for seasonal rewards!
And someone rather unusual is waiting to take your Candy…
Meet Pat’Shriek! 🎃
Pat’Shriek is our Halloween event NPC, and he’s got plenty of interesting items to offer.
He also promises he won’t smash you.
Probably. 👀
Visit Pat’Shriek to exchange your Candy for:
- Consumables with unique effects
- New Heraldry symbols
- A brand-new light helmet skin: Pumpkin Helmet of the Harvester of Souls!
How to Earn Candy
There are several ways to earn Candy throughout the event:

Halloween Quests 📜
We’ve also introduced 18 Halloween quests, available from the quest boards in your nation’s capital.
Each completed quest rewards 100 Candy!
Here’s how the quest system works:
- You can accept up to 3 Halloween quests at the same time.
- After completing all 3 quests, a 4-hour cooldown begins before another batch becomes available.
- Complete quests, collect Candy, and exchange your rewards with Pat’Shriek!
3. The Sea Wraith Event 🌊
Far from Stoneholm lies the mysterious Island of Wraiths.
And something strange has begun to happen there…
Mysterious mushrooms have appeared across the island, spreading throughout the land.
What are they?
Where did they come from?
And what secrets might they be hiding?
There’s only one way to find out.
Travel to the Island of Wraiths and uncover the mystery for yourself!
4. Spookbert’s Club Is Up for Grabs! ⚔️
Remember Spookbert, the final boss of the Volcano Event?
That unusual fellow wields a rather unusual weapon: Spookbert’s Club.
During this year’s Halloween Event, Warriors will have a chance to obtain Spookbert’s Club and wield it as their own!
That’s right!
The weapon previously wielded by Spookbert himself could become part of your arsenal.
Good luck, Warriors!
Challenge the GM: Face a GIANT Spectre! ⚔️
As part of our Halloween celebrations, we’re preparing a special Community Event where Warriors will have the opportunity to face off against a GIANT Community Manager!
Yes, you read that right!
GV Spectre will be transformed into a giant, and it’s up to you to take them down! ⚔️
Warriors from all three nations will have the opportunity to participate.
To make sure everyone gets a chance to join the fun, the event will be held separately for each nation.
So gather your allies, prepare your weapons, and get ready for one very unusual battle!

Guild Rewards Update: More Siege Tokens! 🏰
Alongside our Halloween celebrations, today’s game update also brings an improvement to Guild Rewards!
We’re increasing the number of Siege Tokens guilds can earn through their weekly activity.
With this change, guilds can now receive:
- 1 Siege Token for reaching 100% weekly guild activity.
- 2 additional Siege Tokens for reaching 200% weekly guild activity.
That means guilds can now earn up to 3 Siege Tokens through their weekly activity!
With more Siege Tokens available, guilds will have more opportunities to organize Show of Strength events, rally their allies, and bring more action to the battlefield.
Gather your guildmates, work together, and prepare for battle!
Looking Ahead: Halloween Has Only Just Begun! 🎃
The shadows have grown darker, and the Halloween festivities have officially begun!
From hunting the Headless Horseman and collecting Candy to uncovering the mysteries of the Island of Wraiths, there’s plenty for Warriors to experience over the coming days.
And with Challenge the GM approaching, our Community Manager is preparing to become a rather large problem for everyone on the battlefield. 👀
Remember, the Halloween Events run from October 21 to November 4, 2026.
Thank you for continuing to fight alongside us and for making Gloria Victis a community worth celebrating.
Gather your allies.
Prepare for the unexpected.
And when darkness falls…
Remember, not everything lurking in the shadows is as frightening as it seems.
Happy Halloween, Warriors!
See you on the battlefield! 🎃
