Red Dead Online is gearing up to celebrate the spookiest time of the year with a Halloween event that dares players to challenge supernatural threats. Players can take on the task of protecting the freeholds of Armadillo, Butcher Creek, Shady Belle, and Bolger Glade from unsettling enemies in Red Dead Online's seasonal All Hallows’ Call to Arms modes. Also available for players who don't fear the dark this week are tricks, treats, and the Halloween Pass 2.

This isn't the first time the Red Dead franchise has stepped into spooky territory, but this seasonal event is rather more in-depth than the occasional zombie. The event will be featuring as many rewards as it does scares--players who participate in any All Hallows’ Call to Arms mode will receive a treat of twice the usual RDO$, Gold, and XP. Making it to the 10th wave will bring even greater rewards in the form of 2,000 Club XP that can be redeemed on the Halloween Pass 2.

This week will also offer double rewards for the seasonally appropriate Dead of Night featured series, in which four teams must compete for kills in a fight against the never-ending tide of The Dead. Players who complete any Dead of Night mode will earn a Reward for a free Ability Card of their choosing. Both seasonal modes will offer Red Dead Online players a Night Stalker Mask that allows them to transcend the limits of humanity and access supernatural powers. However, players should use it wisely, as there's usually a price for such power.

Players who want more masks can investigate Madam Nazar’s roving storefront, which will be offering six creepy Halloween masks for a limited time. The Slaughter Mask, Creature Mask, Horror Mask, Swing Mask, Freak Mask, and Masquerade Mask can all be purchased, and they're not the only new items added to the game. Players can also find 10 Snowberger Candies and five Chocolate Bars in their inventories.

Finally, the Halloween Pass 2 is a limited-time purchasable upgrade that comes packed with rewards spread across 15 ranks, including more masks to conceal players' identities, bloodstained clothing items, and terrifying accessories. Players who purchased all four installments of The Quick Draw Club will get a Reward allowing them to access the Red Dead Online Halloween Pass 2 for free, and all players who own the Halloween Pass 2 this week will be rewarded with a free Stable Shirt and a select Shirt up to Rank 15.

Red Dead Online is available on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
