Murder Mystery 2’s Halloween Event 2026 is live, and it’s the biggest one in years. Running from November 18 to November 16, 2026, the event swaps Coins for Candies and lets you earn two brand-new Ancients: the Emberbow gun and a craftable Emberscythe knife — plus the game’s first-ever Chroma Ancients. In this guide, I’ll walk you through everything I’ve cross-checked against the official Roblox event listing and the MM2 wiki: the full 30-tier battle pass, the Halloween Box ’26 odds, the Cauldron recipe, the returning Bingo board, and the candy routine I’d use to finish the pass without wasting a single candy.

What’s New in the 2026 Halloween Event?
Nikilis went full nostalgia this year. The lobby is a retro witch-themed throwback to MM2’s 2014–2018 era, and there’s a secret room above the voting pads — click the skulls around the lobby in rainbow order to unlock it. The map pool brings back the revamped Haunted House 2 alongside Manor, Farmhouse, Mineshaft, Barn (Infection), Vampire’s Castle and Spaceship.
This event also sets two firsts: it’s the first event with Chroma Ancients (Chroma Emberbow and Chroma Emberscythe) and the first time since Season 1 you can craft an Ancient. Bingo returns for the first time since Easter 2023, and Daily Quests appear in a Halloween event for the first time. No wonder the game pulled over 429,000 concurrent players on launch night.
Battle Pass and Candy Costs
The pass has 30 tiers. Tier 1 is free, every other tier costs 600 Candies, and the final Ancient gun — the Emberbow — is a separate 100,000-Candy purchase on top. Budget 116,800–117,400 Candies for the complete run; the wiki’s totals differ slightly on whether tier 30 charges its own 600.
Key stops along the track: the Zombie effect (tier 12), Haunted House knife (14), Cauldron effect (22), Darkwave (28) and Emberknife (29). Every odd tier from 3 to 27 hands you a Halloween Key — 13 in total, each a free Halloween Box open. Keys are untradeable, so spend them yourself. Buying tier 30 also carries a very rare chance to receive the Chroma Emberbow instead; Nikilis hasn’t published those odds.
Halloween Box ’26 Drop Rates
The 2026 Halloween Box is the event’s only crate, and its percentages apply to the rarity tier, not each item:
| Item | Rarity | Chance |
|---|---|---|
| CandyCorn, Bombs (guns) / Skulls, Bullets (knives) | Common | 70% |
| Glow, Brew, Drool (knives) | Uncommon | 18% |
| Catseye, Raven (knives) | Rare | 8% |
| Embergun | Legendary | 4% |
| Embersickle | Godly | 0.2% |
| Chroma Embersickle | Chroma Godly | 0.004% |
At 0.2%, expect an Embersickle roughly every 500 opens — about 300,000 Candies if you paid candy for every spin. That’s why I only open boxes with the pass’s free keys and trade for the sickle afterwards. The Chroma Embersickle works out near 1-in-25,000; don’t trust early price quotes on it.
The Cauldron: How to Craft the Emberscythe?
The Cauldron sits behind the seasonal NPC on the left side of the lobby. Crafting the event’s second Ancient takes four steps:
- Grind the battle pass to tier 30 and buy the Emberbow (100,000 Candies).
- Unbox or trade for the Embersickle (0.2% Godly from the box).
- Place both weapons into the Cauldron — they’re consumed on craft.
- Receive the Emberscythe, with a low chance of the Chroma Emberscythe instead.
Because ingredients are destroyed, collectors who want the full three-piece Ember set need two Emberbows and two Embersickles. You can craft as many times as you like before November 16 — after that, the recipe is gone for good.
Halloween Bingo and Event Quest Rewards
The 3×3 Bingo board is the best source of free, permanent rewards. Here’s the full grid:
| Challenge | Reward |
|---|---|
| Survive and win 3 rounds as Innocent | Bats knife |
| Win a round by shooting the Murderer as Sheriff | Witches Brew knife |
| Kill 7 players with melee attacks | Jack knife |
| Collect 300 total Candies | 2 Halloween Keys |
| Shoot 16 zombies in Infection | Pumpkins knife |
| Pick up the dropped gun and shoot the Murderer | Flameburst knife |
| Complete the entire card | Cauldron effect |
Event Quests stack on top: complete 15 Daily Quests for the Hexed knife, 30 for Pumpkin, and 45 for Ghostly, the best free reward outside the pass. One trap players flagged on launch night: candy-collection Bingo squares only count candies picked off the ground — quest rewards and purchases don’t register.
How I’d Farm Candies Fast?
Daily Quests are your engine — three rotate in each day (they refresh at 8:00 AM UTC) and pay up to 1,000 Candies daily including the completion bonus. Beyond that:
- Play every round to the end. Candies spawn on the map; time alive is candy earned. Innocent gives you the freest collecting time.
- Knock out Bingo tasks passively. Queue Infection for the zombie-shooting square and let melee and sheriff challenges complete themselves across sessions.
- Never buy boxes before the Emberbow. At 600 Candies per open, 167 spins (100,200 Candies) cost roughly the same as the Ancient gun itself.
- Skip “farming server” offers. Handing out account access is the fastest way to lose your inventory, and some rewards reportedly require an ID-verified Roblox account on yours.
Mortal Bundle, Leaderboard and Trading Notes
The paid side is the Mortal Bundle (3,399 Robux): the Mortal godly knife, Immortal godly gun and the exclusive Smolder effect. Separately they cost 1,699 Robux each, so the bundle is effectively a free Smolder. Buy it because you like it — gamepass godlies have unlimited supply and historically trade the weakest of any event set.
The candy leaderboard awards untradeable Emberbow reskins: Gold for first, Silver for second, Bronze for third, and Blue for the top 100. For trade values, box godlies usually dip mid-event and recover after supply stops; grind Ancients stay scarce. Always confirm prices against an updated MM2 value list before big trades — and don’t fall for “free godly” scams, because there are currently no active MM2 codes for this event.
FAQs
When does the MM2 Halloween Event 2026 end?
November 16, 2026, at 18:00 UTC (1:00 PM EST), per the official Roblox event listing. After that, the Emberbow, Embersickle and Emberscythe become trade-only.
How many Candies does the full MM2 battle pass cost?
Around 116,800–117,400 Candies: 600 per tier from tier 2 up, plus the 100,000-Candy Emberbow purchase. Tier 1 is free.
How do you get the Emberscythe in MM2?
Combine an Embersickle (0.2% box Godly) with an Emberbow (pass tier 30) in the lobby’s Cauldron before November 16. Both ingredients are consumed.
What are the Halloween Box ’26 odds for the Embersickle?
0.2% for Embersickle and 0.004% for Chroma Embersickle — roughly 1 in 500 and 1 in 25,000 opens respectively.
Are there MM2 codes for the Halloween 2026 event?
No. All Halloween 2026 rewards come from Candies, the pass, the box, Bingo and the leaderboard. Any “free godly code” video is a scam.
