Roblox’s Dress to Impress is celebrating the spooky season by participating in the official Halloween Spotlight event! To earn exclusive UGC rewards from the main event hub, you need to collect two special items: a Rune and a Key.
This guide will walk you through the simple steps to get the Rune and the more challenging quest to obtain the Key.
How to Get the Halloween Rune
The Rune is the easier of the two items to obtain, but it requires a specific outfit.
Access Halloween Items: Press the pink handbag icon on the left side of your screen, below the Baddie Pass icon. This opens the Halloween collection.
Wear a Full Halloween Outfit: You must equip a complete outfit using the new Halloween-themed items. You cannot wear any non-Halloween items.
Complete a Full Round: Join a standard game round and stay until the voting phase concludes while wearing your full spooky outfit.
If done correctly, you will be awarded the Rune at the end of the round. The key is ensuring every clothing slot is filled with a Halloween item from the event collection.
Where to Get Halloween Clothing
The Halloween collection has two tabs:
Featured: Items that can be purchased with Robux.
Clothing: Items that can be purchased with Candy, the event currency.
You can earn Candy by:
Leveling up your Baddie Pass.
Completing daily missions.
Collecting it from the tub located near Luna’s Ticket Shop in the main lobby.
Popular Halloween items include the Jester set, Sweet Screams accessories, Skull Thigh-High Boots, and the full Witch ensemble.
How to Get the Halloween Key
The Key is earned by successfully completing the special Halloween Quest. This is a multi-step puzzle that can be done solo or with a team of 2-6 players.
Starting the Halloween Quest
Press the Teleport button in the bottom-left corner of the screen.
Select the Halloween Quest option to travel to the event map.
Halloween Quest Walkthrough
Follow these steps in order to complete the quest and receive your Key:
1. Investigate Backstage
Once inside the quest area, head to the Backstage room.
Find and interact with a Necklace located in the middle of the room.
2. Return the Ravens
After picking up the necklace, you must find three lost ravens scattered in different locations. One is hidden in a secret obby area.
3. Unlock the Grand Library Door
The next objective is to find a key to the Grand Library.
Search for this key inside Lina’s Room.
4. Unlock the Final Door
This is the most challenging part. Inside the Grand Library, you must arrange six books in the correct order on a bookshelf.
Beware of the Ghost: A hostile ghost roams the library. It can attack you and reduce your health, interrupting your puzzle-solving. Be quick and avoid it.
After correctly ordering the books and unlocking the final door, you will complete the quest and be rewarded with an exclusive dress, a badge, and the Halloween Key.
Extra Tips and Candy Locations
Freeplay Candy: You can find extra Candy in the main Freeplay server. Look for a pedestal to the left of the large pumpkin.
Event Deadline: The Halloween Spotlight event is available until November 3, 2025. Make sure to complete both challenges before this date to claim all exclusive rewards.
FAQ: Dress to Impress Halloween Event
Q: I wore Halloween items but didn’t get the Rune. Why?
A: You must be wearing a full outfit of Halloween items. If any single slot (shirt, pants, shoes, etc.) is filled with a regular, non-event item, you will not earn the Rune.
Q: Can I do the Halloween Quest alone?
A: Yes, the Halloween Quest can be completed solo or with a group of up to six players.
Q: What are the rewards for getting the Rune and Key?
A: The Rune and Key are used to claim the exclusive UGC rewards from the main Roblox Halloween Spotlight event hub. Completing the quest itself also gives you an exclusive dress and a badge.
Q: How do I get more Candy without paying?
A: You can earn Candy by leveling up the free Baddie Pass, doing daily missions, and finding the candy tub in the lobby and the extra candy in the Freeplay server.
Q: What happens if the ghost hits me in the library?
A: The ghost will reduce your health. If your health reaches zero, you may be reset. The best strategy is to keep your distance and work on the book puzzle when the ghost is on the other side of the room.
Conclusion
The Dress to Impress Halloween Spotlight event offers a fantastic mix of fashion and adventure. By crafting a perfect spooky outfit to earn the Rune and braving the puzzles and ghosts of the Halloween Quest for the Key, you can secure exclusive rewards. Don’t forget to explore every corner for extra Candy and complete both challenges before the event ends on November 3, 2025.
