During the event, many exclusive features are available for players to enjoy, such as Halloween-themed Skins, Trinkets, Candies, the Candy Bag and the Mad Scientist Lab. Also, Pumpkin Lanterns, Pumpkins, and special Set Pieces can be found scattered around the world.
During the event, when the player is digging the Graves or hunting the Suspicious Dirt Pile, it is possible to spawn 3 Batilisks to attack the player. When chopping the trees, there is a small chance to spawn Totally Normal Bats that interrupt player's action and take away 10 sanity.
Players can revisit this event by setting Events to Hallowed Nights in the world creation menu. Halloween-themed event-only skins will be disabled when revisiting the event. Halloween Trinkets traded to the Pig King will return various amounts of Gold Nuggets as well as Candies.

Tips
- It is a good idea to trade Halloween Trinkets with the Pig King with several empty Inventory slots, since the Pig King is generally located in a Pig Village and Pigs will try to eat the dropped Halloween Candies when they spot them.
Trivia
- The Monkey Paw, one of the Halloween Trinkets, is a reference to the horror short story The Monkey's Paw by W. W. Jacobs.
- The Halloween Trinkets and Candies added in 2017 are inspired by Klei Entertainment's other games Griftlands, Hot Lava and Oxygen Not Included.
- The Binoculars, Lone Glove, Snail Scale, and Otherworldly Jawbreaker are references to Griftlands.
- The Goop Canister, Toy Cobra, Crocodile Toy, and Lava Pepper are references to Hot Lava.
- The Broken Terrarium, Odd Radio, Broken Hairdryer, and Candy Lice are references to Oxygen Not Included.
- Wigfrid can eat most of the Halloween Candies but refuses to eat Not-So-Candy Corn, Raisins, "Raisins", and Lava Peppers.
- Trinket 46 used to be the Duplicated Pumpkin, as seen in the game files from earlier, but it was changed to the Broken Hairdryer upon release.
- The Candy Bag resembles the character Oogie Boogie from the Nightmare Before Christmas movie.
