Every year Norrath celebrates Halloween with events and items for a limited time. In each home town, Spooky Sally gives away costumes and Haunted Jack gives away candy. Some of the events listed are from past years and might or might not be available each year.

For 2023, Nights of the Dead began on Wednesday, October 11 at 00:00 PDT and ended on Tuesday, November 7 at 23:00 PST. There appear to be no new quests or missions for 2023.

Progression servers

The Nights of the Dead events should activate on progression servers when the server reaches the era that they were originally introduced.

For example, the events that were introduced in 2006 will turn on if the server has unlocked The Serpent's Spine. And the events that were introduced in 2010 will turn on if the server has unlocked House of Thule.
