The Hollow Roblox Games Ranked: All 9 Horror Titles, Maturity Ratings, and Who Can Play
Posted: Thu Oct 22, 2026 1:54 am
Quick Summary
The Hollow is not a collection of separate game events. Roblox built one shared survival hub and pulled monsters out of nine existing horror experiences, one per day for nine days, then capped it with a live finale on October 31. The hub opens at 2 p.m. PT on October 22 and rewards stay collectible until noon PST on November 2. Roblox Plus subscribers get into the hub two hours earlier, at noon PT, and keep the event theme after the finale ends.Roblox Newsroom: The Hollow, New Platform-Wide Survival Event for Halloween

Why the Maturity Rating Changes Who Can Play
Roblox's content maturity labels are not decorative. They decide which account types can open a game in the first place. Games with a Minimal or Mild label are eligible for Roblox Kids (ages 5 to 8) and Roblox Select (ages 9 to 15). Games with a Moderate label are eligible for Roblox Select (ages 9 to 15) and standard Roblox accounts (16+). Content May Vary is only reachable by age-checked users 16 and older, and Restricted content is only reachable by age-verified users 18 and older.Roblox Creator Hub: Content maturity and compliance
Roblox puts the same boundary in plainer terms on its support page. Moderate covers moderate violence, light realistic blood, moderate crude humor, unplayable gambling content, social hangouts without private spaces, free-form user creation such as in-game drawing tools, and moderate fear. Minimal covers occasional mild violence, light unrealistic blood, and occasional mild fear. Mild sits between them with repeated mild violence, heavy unrealistic blood, mild crude humor, and repeated mild fear.Roblox Support: Content Maturity Ratings
The consequence for The Hollow is concrete. A Roblox Kids account (ages 5 to 8) can reach the six Minimal and Mild games. A Roblox Select account (ages 9 to 15) can reach all nine, because Moderate is included at that tier. Standard 16+ accounts can reach everything as well. Roblox Kids and Select accounts are limited to games with maturity labels up to and including Moderate that have also passed Roblox's three-step selection process, so the rating alone does not guarantee access.Roblox Newsroom: Roblox Introduces New Age-Based Accounts and Expanded Parental Controls for Users Under 16
The event itself is aimed at ages 9 and older in most regions, which matches the three Moderate 9+ games in the lineup rather than the event being a free-for-all.Roblox Newsroom: The Hollow, New Platform-Wide Survival Event for Halloween Parents with linked accounts can still change access: they can block specific games through age 15 and can approve access to individual games that are not otherwise available under the child's default account type.Roblox Newsroom: Roblox Introduces New Age-Based Accounts and Expanded Parental Controls for Users Under 16
What Each Monster Actually Is
Nine monsters arrive across nine days, and each one is a character with a history in its own game. Knowing where they come from tells you how they behave before you meet them in the maze.
Every day, players entering the hub find a new maze to navigate while searching for clues and evading that day's monster. Completing quests earns exclusive UGC and rewards that help you survive the next night. Each day, creator champions play from inside the Hollow via livestream, with LimaMosca, KreekCraft, Bundun, and SirDapper named by Roblox. A live finale for all players starts the morning of October 31, and rewards can be collected until noon PST on November 2.Roblox Newsroom: The Hollow, New Platform-Wide Survival Event for Halloween
Seasonal avatar items go on sale on the Marketplace for a set period, including the Hollow Horseman, dozens of exclusive avatar items, and new seasonal makeup looks. Those are paid items. They are not the same thing as the quest rewards, and neither is required to enter the hub.Roblox Newsroom: The Hollow, New Platform-Wide Survival Event for Halloween
Roblox Plus subscribers get an exclusive profile frame and background, plus an exclusive item launcher they can use to gift items to other players during the event. Active subscribers also keep the event theme beyond the finale.Roblox Newsroom: The Hollow, New Platform-Wide Survival Event for Halloween
There is also a younger-children track. Roblox points parents at the Family Zone crossover with Duck Duck, where hidden costumed ducks are the goal while the page walks through online safety features and parental controls. Adopt Me is bringing back the Hauntlet minigame with new rewards and pets, and Welcome to Bloxburg is running Halloween minigames including Pumpkin Panic and Ghost Hunt.Roblox Newsroom: The Hollow, New Platform-Wide Survival Event for Halloween

Does The Hollow have codes?
No. The event is earned through quests inside the hub. A separate Bleach-inspired game called HOLLOW does have codes, but it is unrelated, and any site selling Hollow event codes is running a scam.
When does The Hollow end?
The live finale starts the morning of October 31, and you can keep collecting rewards until noon PST on November 2.Roblox Newsroom: The Hollow, New Platform-Wide Survival Event for Halloween
Is The Hollow free?
Entering the hub costs nothing. The seasonal avatar items on the Marketplace are paid, and Roblox Plus is a subscription, but neither is required to play.Roblox Newsroom: The Hollow, New Platform-Wide Survival Event for Halloween
Is The Hollow the same as The Haunt?
No. The Haunt was Roblox's 2024 Halloween event. The Hollow is the 2026 event, with a different format, a different game list, and different rewards.Urban Shade wiki: The Haunt event dates and participating game count

- The Hollow puts nine Roblox horror games in one survival hub, running October 22 through November 2, with a new monster arriving each day for nine days.
- The nine games are DOORS, WARDEN, Animal Hospital, The Mimic, Scary Shawarma Kiosk, Piggy, Dandy's World, 99 Nights in the Forest, and Demonology.
- Three of the nine carry a Moderate 9+ maturity label (The Mimic, Scary Shawarma Kiosk, Demonology), which decides who can actually play them.
- Each monster is borrowed from a real horror game you may already know, so you can recognize them in the maze before they recognize you.
- Roblox has not published a reward list, so anything claiming to know the free items or event currency is guessing.

Nine monsters arrive across nine days, and each one is a character with a history in its own game. Knowing where they come from tells you how they behave before you meet them in the maze.
- Seek (DOORS) hunts by sound and line of sight. DOORS is a door-by-door escape game where hiding and lighting are the whole skill set.
- The Overseer (WARDEN) is the threat in a horror escape experience from Sonar Studios.
- Mimic (Animal Hospital) comes from an anomaly-horror game built around something that is not what it looks like.
- Hiachi (The Mimic) is one of the creatures in a game that leans heavily on Japanese folklore and urban legends. Pocket Tactics names The Mimic as the scariest Roblox game it has played, and credits its sound design and detailed environments.Pocket Tactics: The best Roblox horror games in 2026
- The Inspector (Scary Shawarma Kiosk) is the anomaly from a game built around a kiosk you do not want to be near after hours.
- Piggy (Piggy) is the mascot-killer at the center of one of the oldest and most recognizable horror franchises on the platform.
- Twisted Dandy (Dandy's World) is the corrupted version of the friendly flower character. Pro Game Guides ranks Dandy's World as its number one Roblox horror game.Pro Game Guides: 20 Best Roblox Horror Games in 2026
- The Deer (99 Nights in the Forest) is the creature you are dodging in a survival game where you gather resources, defend a camp, and try to last the night. Pocket Tactics compares the loop to 7 Days to Die and The Forest.Pocket Tactics: The best Roblox horror games in 2026
- Biter (Demonology) is the ghost you are tracking in a co-op investigation game Pro Game Guides describes as similar to Phasmophobia.Pro Game Guides: 20 Best Roblox Horror Games in 2026

How to Prepare Before the Hub Opens
- Favorite all nine games now. Servers fill fast on day one, and the two heaviest are DOORS and 99 Nights in the Forest.
- Play the games you do not know. The Mimic and Scary Shawarma Kiosk are the two most likely to surprise you if you have never opened them.
- Check your account tier before you try to join. If the account is a Roblox Kids account, the Moderate 9+ games are out of reach by default.
- Set a reminder for 2 p.m. PT on October 22. That is the public opening time. Roblox Plus enters at noon PT the same day.
- Do not trust any site selling Hollow codes or free event items. Roblox says rewards come from quests inside the hub, not from codes.Roblox Newsroom: The Hollow, New Platform-Wide Survival Event for Halloween
