Updated October 31, 2026: Happy Halloween. We re-checked everything at 00:15 UTC today. Both official event end times are unchanged. This update adds the October 27 patch, which split Chapter 2 into two parts, and DTI’s part in The Hollow (a badge for finishing Chapter 1 plus a UGC item for playing it, until November 2). We also corrected the Chapter 1 and mansion steps using the wiki’s full chapter pages and added badge numbers that show how many players finish each part. There’s still no Halloween code, and no new update or code had been posted for Halloween day when we checked.
Dress To Impress Halloween 2026 runs until November 7 at 16:00 UTC. Its headline quest, Tales of the Dark King, stays open until November 14 at 04:00 UTC, so you have about two weeks left from Halloween. There are three chapters, and since October 27 the long middle chapter is split in two. First a boat ride across the river, then the village and Agamemnon’s mansion (Chapter 2-1), then the catacombs, sanctum and escape (Chapter 2-2), and finally a boss fight. Beat all of it to unlock Styx’s Scythe, Styx’s Cloak, Clytemnestra’s Outfit and the Agamemnon Doll. If you only clear Chapter 1 before November 2 at 20:00 UTC, you also get The Hollow badge.
Dates come from the game’s official Roblox event listings. Patch details come from the developer’s X account, @_Dress2Impress. The steps follow the DTI wiki’s quest pages (last edited October 28-29) and guides published since launch. About 73,000 people were playing DTI at 00:14 UTC on October 31, according to Roblox’s public game data.

Dress To Impress Halloween 2026 dates and times
The Dress To Impress Group runs two Roblox events this season, and DTI is also part of Roblox’s platform-wide Hollow event. Here they are in the order they close. We re-checked both DTI end times on the official listings at 00:15 UTC on October 31, and neither has moved since launch.
| Event | Starts (UTC) | Ends (UTC) | US Eastern |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Hollow badge + UGC (finish Chapter 1) | Oct 26-27 (DTI joined) | Nov 2, 20:00 (Roblox’s Hollow reward deadline) | Nov 2, 3:00 PM EST |
| Halloween update (“The Night of Scream Queens”) | Oct 17, 15:00 | Nov 7, 16:00 | Nov 7, 11:00 AM EST |
| Tales of the Dark King quest (Halloween Part 2) | Oct 24, 15:05 | Nov 14, 04:00 | Nov 13, 11:00 PM EST |
US clocks go back on November 1, so every end time above is in EST. The Hollow deadline comes from Roblox’s newsroom post. See our Roblox Halloween 2026 end dates list for every other game’s deadline.
What’s changed since launch
The developer has patched the quest twice. On launch day, October 24, it fixed the Revive pass and nerfed the Watchers (details below). Then on October 27 the “Chapter 2 split” patch went out:
- Chapter 2 is now two parts. Chapter 2-1 is the village and mansion. Chapter 2-2 is the catacombs, the sanctum and the escape. A failed catacombs run should no longer send you back through the mansion puzzles.
- Barriers stop you getting trapped in Chapter 2. The prompts for placing and picking up items in the tunnels changed, and more than two players can now climb a rope at once.
- Accessibility features were updated for console and touchscreen, and freeplay lighting zones in private servers were fixed.
- The Lunar Werewolf set now fits the masculine rig, and Clytemnestra’s cape was fixed.
- DTI joined The Hollow. Clearing Chapter 1 gives The Hollow 2026 badge, and you have to replay it if you’d already finished it. On October 30 the official account added that playing Chapter 1 also earns a UGC item.
On October 26 the team also said it was reworking the quest reward dress. It hasn’t posted that the rework is finished. When we checked early on Halloween, @_Dress2Impress had posted nothing new since October 30. The game’s page shows a server update at 23:10 UTC on October 30, but no patch notes came with it.
How many players finish each part?
Roblox’s public badge counts show how many accounts earned each quest badge (checked 00:15 UTC, October 31):
| Badge | Players who earned it |
|---|---|
| Chapter 1 | 2,493,787 |
| The Hollow 2026 (Chapter 1 during The Hollow) | 1,540,678 |
| Chapter 2_1 (new with the split) | 490,146 |
| Chapter 2_2 | 311,524 |
| Chapter 3 | 303,936 |
Fewer than one in eight players who finished Chapter 1 have finished Chapter 3, so Chapter 2 is where most runs end. The Chapter 2_2 badge was made on launch day, so it probably also counts players who beat the original one-piece Chapter 2 before the split. Once you’re past Chapter 2, almost everyone finishes the boss.
How to start Tales of the Dark King
- Open the Teleport menu and choose Tales of the Dark King, or use the portal in the lobby. A warning about flashing lights, jump scares and loud noises appears first.
- You wake up in an underworld version of Lana’s Salon. Talk to Lana at her nail station. After the scene, the boards over the exit come off.
- Follow the lantern-lit forest path down to the docks and talk to Styx.
- Pick a platform to play solo or in a party. TechWiser says parties go up to 4 players. If you fail a chapter, you’re sent back to the docks to try again.
The developer’s own teaser advised bringing a friend for the tunnels. Solo is calmer for a first run, because you can learn the puzzles at your own pace.

Chapter 1: the boat (and The Hollow badge)
The Ferryman takes you down the river, and you have two jobs at once:
- Keep the lantern fueled. Carry fuel orbs from the container on one side of the boat to the lantern at the front. It drains fast, so keep moving.
- Knock souls off the boat with the oar you’re given. TechWiser notes they have low health while they’re still climbing the side, so hit them before they board.
The fuel runs out twice, and each time the boat docks. Find 10 glowing fuel orbs on land and bring them back. You can’t swim, so look for wooden planks to cross the water. After the second refuel the boat goes on to the Soul Field. Follow the glowing orb to the souls of Clotho and Lachesis and take the necklace they offer. A cutscene finishes the chapter. That is all The Hollow asks for: the badge goes to players who complete Chapter 1, so stop here if the badge is all you want before November 2. Our Roblox The Hollow event guide covers the rest of the platform-wide event.
Chapter 2-1: the village and the mansion
Chapter 2 takes place in a memory. Before October 27 it was one long run. Now it’s two parts with a checkpoint in between.
The village key
You land on a dock next to a village. Talk to Atropos, who explains that her sisters were taken. The townsfolk won’t open their doors. The gate key is inside a building on the left as you walk up the hill. Unlock the gate, then follow the path down the hill and across the river to Agamemnon’s mansion.
The mansion puzzles (before 7 AM)
The gates lock behind you, and a clock runs from midnight to 7 AM in-game. Solve each puzzle to win a medallion, then place it in front of the Athena statue in the garden at the center of the mansion. The wiki gives this order:
| Puzzle | What to do | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Six objects | A room has six plinths (vase, jug, fruit bowl, lion head statue, bust and birdcage). Banners in the hallways, kitchen, library and bathroom give each object’s number. Every banner you find is added to the note in that room. Place the objects 1 to 6 along the line on the floor. | Calchas Medallion (opens the bedroom) |
| Bedroom and library | The scroll on the bed shows a pattern of squares. Walk the same squares on the library floor grid to open a secret room behind the bookcases. Downstairs are the second numeral note and the Grand Hall key. | Grand Hall key + numeral 2 |
| Three numerals | The first Roman numeral note is in the kitchen, the second in the secret room and the third near the altar in the Grand Hall. Set the dial on the bathroom floor to match them. | Artemis Medallion (opens the pyxis case in the bedroom) |
| Pyxis | Take the pyxis from the bedroom to the altar in the Grand Hall. A cutscene with Agamemnon plays, and the pyxis stays in your inventory. | Athena Medallion |
With all three medallions at the statue, a hidden entrance to the catacombs opens. The numerals aren’t a fixed code you can look up. TechWiser’s launch-week walkthrough says they’re random for each server, so read the notes in your own run. TechWiser’s guide also places the numeral lock in a “ceramic room”, while the wiki puts the dial on the bathroom floor. Look for a floor dial either way. Two optional journals in the mansion, Clytemnestra’s and Iphigenia’s, tell the backstory.
Chapter 2-2: catacombs, sanctum and escape
The catacombs monster
- The view switches to first person and you carry a flashlight. The first key is hidden in the first area. TechWiser found it in a coffin in the corner room: from the entrance, go right, right, then left twice.
- Unlocking that gate lets out a crawling monster that detects you and hunts you down. If it gets close, you die. Hide when you see it, and only cross open areas once it has moved off.
- Go down the stairs and squeeze through a small gap in a wall into a hidden room with a rope. Take the rope back upstairs, tie it to the pillar and climb up. Release the chain on the hanging cage so it drops with the exit key inside, then unlock the exit gate.
- The last stretch has the Watchers, still figures with glowing eyes. Don’t get too close or you die. The developer cut their range by 50% and slowed them on October 24.
The sanctum cauldron
Past the Watchers is Agamemnon’s sanctum. After a cutscene, take the Moirai sisters’ dolls from the table in the main room and read the note listing what the cure needs. The wiki says the scissors and thread are upstairs, and the powder, potion and spell workstations are downstairs. TechWiser’s run used Moth, Tooth, Herbs and Spider Lily for the first potion, plus a button pattern copied from the top of the screen for the spell scroll. Put each finished item in one of the four braziers around the cauldron.
When all four are filled, the cauldron erupts and a two-headed monster chases you. Keep running, dodge the falling debris and dive through the gate at the end. That ends Chapter 2.
Chapter 3: the boss fight
You wake in the Soul Field. Talk to Clotho and Lachesis, then walk up the hill to the clearing. The boss is Nestra (Clytemnestra). You only get three hearts, according to launch guides. Shoot her with the bow and arrow you’re given, dodge her summoned attacks, and stay out of the marked impact zones (Sportskeeda’s tip). After she’s beaten, walk back down to the dock, hand the pyxis to the Ferryman as your fare and board the boat to finish the quest and claim the rewards.
Tales of the Dark King rewards
| Reward | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Styx’s Scythe | Prop (accessory) | Part of Styx’s set. Color options for the scythe, skull and strings |
| Styx’s Cloak | Headwear | Part of Styx’s set. Feather toggles, mask only or feathers only |
| Clytemnestra’s Outfit | Dress/costume | Default or “Only Cape” toggle. The cape was fixed on October 27, and the team said on October 26 that it’s reworking the quest reward dress |
| Agamemnon Doll | Prop, in Lana’s Salon | A new toggle for the Lana Doll with Cuddle, Held, Dollie and Helmet poses |
Item details come from the wiki’s Halloween 2026: Part 2 pages. Some guides list the rewards as “a Lana Doll, an Agamemnon Doll and a three-piece set”. That looks like the same items described another way: the scythe, cloak and outfit are the set, and the Agamemnon Doll is a Lana Doll toggle. Finish before the quest closes on November 14 to keep them. The Hollow UGC item is separate and comes from Chapter 1.
Revives and the October 24 fixes
If a monster catches you, a paid Revive lets you carry on instead of restarting. TechWiser puts it at 72 Robux. On launch day the developer said the Revive pass didn’t work in the tunnel section. Revive sales were turned off at 11:41 AM ET, and a patch went out at 12:37 PM ET. If you bought one within about the first hour, open a ticket in the official Discord or email [email protected] with proof of purchase. Affected players get runway effects, seasonal currency or Pink Cash. The same post confirms the Watchers nerf.
How to get Candy Corn fast
Candy Corn stays the seasonal currency until November 7. You spend it on limited-time shop items such as the Star Witch and Lunar Werewolf sets. In an October 17 update notice, the developers said they raised seasonal shop prices to match the new earning rates, and that players can make “500+ candies per minute while farming”. Minigames are uncapped with no cooldowns, and regular rounds pay Candy Corn too. The shop closes a week before the quest does, so if you still want Candy Corn items, farm between quest attempts.

| Activity | Where | What it pays |
|---|---|---|
| Ghost Hunting | Server list / teleport button | Candy Corn. Grab a Ghost-O-Matic and hunt ghosts in a haunted Dressing Room |
| Tarot Cards | Freeplay, four tents in Halloween Town | 80 Candy Corn per matched pair, up to 640 for all 8 pairs (12 lives) |
| Trick-or-Treating | Freeplay, the house street | 275 Candy Corn plus a Halloween Runway Effect, nothing, or a jumpscare |
| Apple Bobbing | Freeplay park, tickets from Luna’s Ticket Shop | Cash, Stars, Runway Effects or the Ghost Dress (rare) |
| Daily tasks | Tasks menu | Candy Corn (“great payouts”, per the developer) |
| Regular and Spooky Showdown rounds | Main servers | Candy Corn, Cash, Stars, XP |
The per-activity payouts come from the community wiki, not the developer, and may change with patches. Apple Bobbing tickets can be used every 5 minutes (it was 10 last year).
Tip for Tarot Cards: with 16 cards and 12 lives, flip cards in the same order every time and remember the positions. A clean board is worth 640 Candy Corn.
What does Candy Corn buy?
The seasonal shop has two new sets, Star Witch (skirt, top, legwear and hat) and Lunar Werewolf (necklace, bodysuit, shoes and jacket, which now fit the masculine rig too). Last year’s Jester set is back as well. The wiki lists the Jester Bodysuit at 76,000 Candy Corn, the Jester Mask at 60,000 and the Jester Ruff at 36,000, so the farming advice above matters. Prices for the new sets aren’t fully documented, so check them in-game. Free Halloween racks include the Scarecrow Dress, Piano Bolero, Piano Bag, Lantern and Kitty (wiki item list). The Halloween Collection pass has 40 tiers, according to AllThingsHow.
Spooky Showdown challenges
Style Showdown is running as Spooky Showdown for the season, with up to 7 players a round. It has its own Halloween challenges on top of the normal themes:
- WITCHES! Everyone has to wear the Witch Hat and Broomstick, so build the rest of the outfit around them.
- Infected: a newer challenge whose rules still aren’t documented.
Showdown rewards include the Style Showdown Gloves, Dress and Headpiece, plus Cash, Candy Corn, Stars, XP and Style Stars.
Dress To Impress codes (checked October 31, 2026, 00:16 UTC)
There is still no Halloween code, and none came with the Dark King quest or the October 27 patch. @_Dress2Impress hadn’t posted a code as of its latest post (October 30, 01:42 UTC). The wiki’s code page was last edited on October 23 and still lists LANADOLLDRESS (July 4) as the newest code. Pocket Tactics (updated October 27) and Destructoid (October 29) have no new code either.
Expired: 10BILLION (Heart Fork) belonged to the 10B Party, which ended September 19. The wiki has moved it to its expired list, though some lists, Destructoid’s among them, still show it. RDC2026 has expired too.
Not expired: creator and collab codes don’t run on a timer. The eight below are on the wiki’s active list and Pocket Tactics’ October 27 list. Six of them (all but LANADOLLDRESS and PIXIIUWU) are also on Destructoid’s October 29 list, and all eight passed Timesaver‘s October 18 check. The wiki counts 26 active codes in total. We list only the ones at least three of these sources agree on.
| Code | Reward | Status (Oct 31) |
|---|---|---|
| LANADOLLDRESS | Lana Doll Dress (reworked Lana Tutu) | Active (added with the July 4 Summer update) |
| CA11MEHHALEY | CMH Bear Ears, Bear Onesie, Bear Dress | Active |
| CH00P1E_B4CK_AGA1N | Choopie’s Jacket, Skirt, Shorts, Shoes | Active |
| PIXIIUWU | Pixiiuwu’s Iridescent Dress | Active |
| 3NCHANTEDD1ZZY | Izzy’s Wand | Active |
| ANGELT4NKED | Biker Helmet | Active |
| ELLA | Ella’s Skirt | Active |
| LANA | Lana Rae’s Top, Shorts, Leg Warmers | Active |
To redeem one, tap the bag (Codes) icon on the left of the screen, type the code exactly, and press Redeem. Codes are case-sensitive, and the 0s, 1s, 3s and 4s are numbers, not letters. Each code works once per account. If a code drops before Halloween ends, we’ll add it here once it shows up on the official X account or in the in-game notes.

FAQ
When does Tales of the Dark King end?
The official listing ends it on November 14, 2026 at 04:00 UTC, which is November 13 at 11:00 PM EST. It released on October 24, and the end time hadn’t moved when we checked on October 31.
How do I get The Hollow badge in Dress To Impress?
Finish Chapter 1 of Tales of the Dark King (the boat ride and the Soul Field). That gives The Hollow 2026 badge, and the developer says playing it also earns a UGC item. If you beat Chapter 1 before October 27, replay it. Roblox’s Hollow rewards close on November 2 at 20:00 UTC.
How many chapters does the Dark King quest have?
Three. Since October 27, Chapter 2 is split into Chapter 2-1 (village and mansion puzzles) and Chapter 2-2 (catacombs, sanctum and chase), so in practice you play four parts. Chapter 3 is the boss fight.
What is the Roman numeral code in the mansion?
There isn’t a fixed one. Collect the three numeral notes (kitchen, the secret room under the library, and near the Grand Hall altar) and set the dial to match. TechWiser says the numerals are random for each server.
What are the Tales of the Dark King rewards?
Styx’s Scythe, Styx’s Cloak, Clytemnestra’s Outfit and the Agamemnon Doll, a new toggle for the Lana Doll. You get them after beating Nestra in Chapter 3 and returning to the boat.
Are there Dress To Impress codes in October 2026 that aren’t expired?
Yes, but no new ones. Eight older creator codes still work as of October 31, including LANADOLLDRESS, CA11MEHHALEY and LANA. There is no Halloween code, and 10BILLION has expired.
When does the Dress To Impress Halloween update end?
The official event listing ends it on November 7, 2026 at 16:00 UTC (11:00 AM EST). The quest runs a week longer, until November 14 at 04:00 UTC.
