Grab a witchy house for completing Elder Scrolls Online’s Halloween events beginning October 18

Just this morning we covered Elder Scrolls Online’s new Indrik mount event reward, which requires players to play a bit in all four of the game’s upcoming seasonal events and collect feathers in each. As it turns out, the first of these events is slated for the run-up to Halloween, and it’s starting up on October 18th, according to a new post ZeniMax put up today.

“The Witches Festival kicks off at 10:00AM EDT on Thursday, October 18 and will run until 10:00AM EDT, Thursday, November 1. During this spoopy event, you can enjoy a 100% XP buff, become an undead monster, and acquire a creepy collection of Witches Festival-themed items. In addition to this, we’re also introducing the brand-new Dremora Plunder Skulls, containing a never-before-seen Motif!”

Like last year’s event, this one reintroduces the Exorcised Coven Cottage home, which you can buy with real cash or with gold, though the latter only if you bust through all the achievements from Halloween. “This home is only available during the Witches Event period, so don’t miss out,” ZeniMax reminds us.

Something wicked this way comes… 🔮

The Witches Festival has almost arrived in #ESO. Check out all the details in our latest article, including double XP, a new collectible, and a new motif: https://t.co/DZJqeNMr7y pic.twitter.com/U2i4X84E8v
