Diablo 4’s Vessel of Hatred expansion has been released for a while, and many players have completed the storyline in DLC and experienced the fun of Spiritborn. However, the game did not stop because of a successful update. Instead, it is making final preparations for the upcoming Halloween event.
According to official news, Diablo 4 will officially launch the “macabre celebration” Halloween event at 10 am Pacific Time on October 29, and it will last until the same time on November 5.
During this period, all participating players will receive a series of limited-time free store items as rewards. In addition, a particularly noteworthy highlight is Butcher-exclusive “Meat or Treat” Dungeon Shrine modifier, which will also be available during this period. This means that players can explore more different game content through this interesting mechanism.
For players who like Diablo 4 series and want to spend a Halloween holiday full of surprises and fun in the game, it is definitely worth logging in to the game during this period. Whether you want to collect rare items, accumulate Diablo 4 Gold, or just feel the festive atmosphere, the “macabre celebration” can meet your needs.
Free Goodies
Diablo 4’s Halloween event brings a series of exciting benefits to players, the most notable of which is that during the event, players can get free store items by simply logging into the game. This generous move can make every participant feel the sincerity of the development team and the importance of the player community.
Specifically, starting from October 29, a new cosmetic item will be available in the store every day for players to receive for free. Each cosmetic item has a unique design. It should be noted that although Halloween event itself will last until November 5, the free cosmetic items will end on November 1. Besides the free cosmetics, Diablo 4’s Halloween event also includes the following free items:
- October 29: Recluse’s Host Mount
- October 30: Ichorflame Torch Mount Trophy
- October 31: Recluse’s Flask Mount Trophy
- November 1: Reclusive Trappings Mount Armor
In Diablo 4’s Halloween event, October 29 marks the start of a series of unique and seasonal free mounts and loot for players to claim in the in-game store. First up is Recluse’s Host Mount, a uniquely designed zombie horse with a decayed flesh and empty eye sockets that perfectly fit the horror theme of Halloween, adding a festive touch to players’ rides through the vast world of Sanctuary.
Then, on the next day, October 30, players can claim Ichorflame Torch Mount Trophy, a creative item featuring a large recluse spider with one side clasping a burning flame, adding a mysterious and powerful aura to the player’s character.
On the last day of the event, November 1, the store will offer Reclusive Trappings Mount Armor, a piece of armor designed specifically for the aforementioned zombie horse, which is covered in dense spider webs to make its entire body more terrifying and also strengthen the mount’s defense capabilities.
During this Halloween event, players do not need to log in to the game every day to claim the free items. Each date marks the time when the item is available in the store, and players can claim it after the item is available until November 5 at 12 noon Pacific Time.
Therefore, as long as players log in once between November 1 and November 5, they can claim all the free decorative items offered by the event. If you want some other game items, you can pay attention to Diablo 4 Season 6 giveaway event that IGGM discord has been doing. Just leave your favorite emoji to participate in the draw.

A Dungeon Modifier
Diablo 4 also launched Butcher’s ‘Meat or Treat’ event during Halloween event. The essence of this event lies in its influence mechanism on Dungeon Shrines. When players activate any Dungeon Shrines during the event, they may trigger this special effect. Once activated, Shrines will show different “surprise” effects from the usual, which may include additional loot, enhanced attributes or other unexpected gains.
However, although these surprise effects are tempting, they may also be accompanied by certain risks and challenges, which will have unpredictable negative effects on the operation of the dungeon.
Therefore, for players who are eager to explore and experience this event, how to wisely choose when and where to activate the dungeon shrine during the event from October 29 to November 5 has become an important strategic consideration.
Although Diablo 4’s Halloween event may not include a lot of substantial game content updates, it is worth being able to receive a few new cosmetic items for free during the holiday. In addition, regarding Butcher’s game of “Meat or Treat,” Diablo 4 development team has maintained a mysterious silence and has not clearly informed players of the specific advantages and disadvantages they will face after activating a Dungeon Shrine.
Players need to explore and experience the event content in person after the event starts in order to discover the secrets and surprises. This may mean that activating a Dungeon Shrine after the event is officially launched may bring some unexpected benefits.
