Event Schedule

Introduction

The Hollow is a time-boxed event and the schedule matters more than any other wiki section, because every reward in the game is claimable only inside the October 22 to November 2 window. The maze regenerates nightly with a new monster arriving each day for nine days, the live finale happens on the morning of October 31 with the maze at maximum danger, and every claim must be banked before noon PST on November 2 when the hub closes for good. This section tracks the key dates, the early-access windows that give Roblox Plus subscribers a head start, the daily rotation rhythm that resets the maze and the quest log, and the countdown to the finale, so you never miss a day of the nine-day arc and you always know exactly how much event time remains in your own time zone.

Key Dates

Core Mechanics

The event follows a strict nine-day calendar, and every mechanic in the game is tuned around it. October 22 starts at 2pm PT when the hub opens, with the official launch at 3pm PT and Roblox Plus subscribers entering an hour early at noon PT; from that night through October 30 each night brings a new monster and a freshly regenerated maze, cycling through all nine featured horrors in order. The morning of October 31 is the live finale, when everyone still in The Hollow attempts the final escape at once and the normal one-monster rhythm breaks down into something far more dangerous. Reward claiming continues through the wrap-up until noon PST on November 2, at which point the hub closes, the maze disappears and any unclaimed quest rewards are simply gone.

Advantages

A reliable schedule lets you plan The Hollow like a project instead of a scramble, and in a nine-day event that planning advantage is enormous. Knowing the daily rotation time in your own time zone tells you when the maze resets, so you can be first into the fresh maze when the clue is easiest to find and the monster patrol is thinnest. Knowing the October 31 finale date lets you book your Halloween morning around the event rather than discovering afterwards that you missed the capstone, and the November 2 deadline stops you from losing rewards to a hub that closes silently while you are offline. For anyone trying to complete the full reward set, the schedule is the difference between calm daily progress and a panic-farming last night.

Challenges

The official dates are confirmed by the newsroom, but two caveats make the schedule harder than it looks. First, the exact daily monster assignments are announced night-by-night rather than pre-published, so you cannot always plan ahead for which monster you will face — the schedule page updates as the confirmations land. Second, time-zone conversion mistakes are one of the most common ways players miss the deadline, because the event consistently uses PT and PST and the switch between them can catch people out during the final days. Community reports about exact reset hours occasionally disagree with the newsroom, so treat the official announcement as the authority and this page as the fastest human-readable reference.
