The Hollow is Roblox’s 2026 Halloween event: a maze of monsters from famous Roblox games. 99 Nights in the Forest’s Deer is a cameo. Dates, monster roster and how to join.
Last updated: October 22, 2026The Hollow — Roblox Halloween Event with 99 Nights’ Deer
Roblox’s 2026 Halloween event pulls monsters from its biggest horror games into one maze. Dino Kid’s signature Deer is among the nine — here is what is confirmed and when to catch the cameo.
What is The Hollow
The Hollow is a limited-time, platform-wide Halloween event on Roblox (not a 99 Nights in the Forest update). Players are dropped into a dedicated maze mini-game and must navigate it, search for clues, and evade the terrifying creature that roams it. A new monster appears in the maze each day for nine days, and the scare level ratchets up as each day passes.
Roblox creator channels (KreekCraft, LimaMosca, Bundun and SirDapper) are uncovering clues to help players survive the maze during the event. Specific event rewards have not been itemized by the source guide — check in-game while the event is live.
The Deer cameo
99 Nights in the Forest is represented by The Deer
The Deer — the two-legged antagonist that hunts you every night in 99 Nights in the Forest — is one of the nine maze monsters in The Hollow. It is a cameo borrowed for the Roblox event; it does not change anything inside 99 Nights. If you recognize the silhouette, that is why.
All nine maze monsters
Each day a different monster from a famous Roblox experience appears in the maze. The Deer is the 99 Nights in the Forest representative:
| # | Monster | From |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | The Deer | 99 Nights in the Forest |
| 2 | Seek | DOORS |
| 3 | Twisted Dandy | Dandy’s World |
| 4 | Piggy | Piggy |
| 5 | The Inspector | Scary Shawarma Kiosk |
| 6 | Mimic | Animal Hospital |
| 7 | Biter | Demonology |
| 8 | Hiachi | The Mimic |
| 9 | The Overseer | Warden |

How 99 Nights players can join
You do not need to be playing Dino Kid to see the cameo. Open Roblox, launch The Hollow event experience while it is live, and survive the maze mini-game. The Deer roams the maze on its scheduled day alongside the other eight monsters. The event is separate from the Halloween 2026 content inside Dino Kid itself.
Event details (start/end times, the nine-monster roster, creator clue-hunters) compiled from Eurogamer’s Roblox The Hollow guide (Oct 22, 2026). The Hollow is a Roblox platform event; The Deer’s appearance is a cameo and does not affect 99 Nights in the Forest. Confirm in-game times against your local timezone before logging in.
