Hedge Maze Refresh (99 Nights, Oct 31 – Nov 7): reworked Haunted Maze with vines and hedge traps, new rewards, and the Ghost Ranger class at 1,000 Candies.
Última atualização: 5 de novembro de 2026Hedge Maze Guide — Halloween Part 3 (99 Nights)
The Dino Kid Hedge Maze is the grand finale of the Halloween 2026 event: a carnival lobby, three Carnival Minigames to earn Tickets, and the Haunted Maze at the centre. The Hedge Maze Refresh went live on October 31, 2026 — here is what changed, what it pays and how to clear it.
Event window
The developer’s Roblox event listing scheduled the "Hedge Maze Refresh" for Oct 31, 17:00 UTC through Nov 7, 10:30 UTC, and the Oct 31 patch notes confirm it shipped on that day. Some guides still quote a Nov 1 – Nov 8 window — the Oct 31 → Nov 7 dates are the ones that matched the live build. All Hedge Maze content and Halloween currencies disappear when the event ends, so spend your Candies before Nov 7.
What the Hedge Maze Refresh changed (Oct 31)
The official patch notes describe a rebuilt Haunted Maze rather than a re-run: "The hedges are more dangerous, the paths less predictable, and plenty of new surprises are waiting for those brave enough to venture inside." Four changes are listed:
- Reworked layout and traps — a major facelift for the maze; beware the vines, and take care not to get caught in the hedges. Old route memorisation no longer carries over.
- New maze rewards — new treasures were added to the chest pool inside the maze, on top of the Scythe, Vampire Cloak, Morning Star Hammer and Bouncing Blade.
- New Halloween Shop items — extra limited-time stock was added for players sitting on Candy from Trick or Treat and the carnival minigames.
- New Halloween class — the Ghost Ranger joined the Halloween Shop at 1,000 Candies. Details in the class table below.
How to unlock the Hedge Maze
1. Get the Carnival Event
Play during Part 3 of the Halloween update (which guarantees the event) or use a Carnival Fire to force the Carnival Event to spawn in every run. Without it, the maze will not appear.
2. Win three Carnival Minigames
Scattered through the transformed carnival lobby are several machines, each a unique puzzle or challenge. Complete all three Carnival Minigames to earn three Carnival Tickets — the key to the maze entrance. Each game also pays up to five Halloween Candies.
3. Enter the maze
Once all three tickets are collected the maze entrance unlocks (marked by a visual effect or an opened gate). Step in to navigate the twisting, dark paths toward the Vampire Chest.
The three Carnival Minigames
The Carnival appears on Day 3 near your campfire ("The Carnival is in town" message, bright tents and music). Each booth pays one Carnival Ticket plus about five Candies once you hit its score — and the three Tickets automatically open the maze gate, no manual use needed. Timers start on your first successful throw or hit:
| Booth | Goal | Timer |
|---|---|---|
| Ring Toss | Land 3 rings on the bottles | 14 seconds |
| Hoop Shot (Basketball) | Sink 3 Carnival Basketballs | 12 seconds |
| Shooting Gallery | Hit 5 moving targets with the Air Rifle (Bear, Cultist, Ram, Owl and Deer targets) | 10 seconds after first hit |
What is inside the maze
Community mapping (99 Nights Fandom wiki) describes the layout below. The Oct 31 refresh reworked the maze and added new traps, so use these as landmarks rather than a fixed map.
Vampire Chest & Maze Chest
A Vampire Chest waits at the end of the maze, with a second Maze Chest also at the finish. These are the headline loot nodes.
Four Spooky Chests
Hidden on dead ends around the maze — worth the detour since the maze gives at least 19 from the Spooky Chests and the Vampire House combined.
Glowing Pumpkin plots & Vampire House
Two farm plots grow Glowing Pumpkins (they glow at night), and the Vampire House can be trick-or-treated during the morning. A costume closet and a tiny grave room round out the side rooms.
Happy the Halloween Guy
The first lobby NPC to appear inside a match — Happy lies near the entrance. The maze spawns on Day 3 in Level 3–4 Campfire areas and is guided by lamps and arrows.
The center: coffin guarded by an Alpha Wolf
Multiple guide walkthroughs agree on the finish: an Alpha Wolf guards a coffin at the maze center. Defeat it, open the coffin (hold E) for the headline weapon — usually the Scythe or Bouncing Blade — then leave through the wooden hatch behind it. Red arrows on the hedges can mislead; the right-hand wall rule is a safe fallback.
Expected rewards
| Reward | Type |
|---|---|
| Scythe | Melee weapon — extended attack reach |
| Vampire Cloak | Exclusive cosmetic outfit |
| Morning Star Hammer | Blunt weapon — heavy damage |
| Bouncing Blade | Unique throwing weapon |
Halloween Shop classes (post-Refresh)
Three limited-time classes sit in the Halloween Shop during the event. Candy comes from Trick or Treat, the carnival minigames and maze chests; everything here is gone once the event closes on Nov 7.
| Class | Cost | Starter tool |
|---|---|---|
| Ghost Ranger (new Oct 31) | 1,000 Candies | Ghost Crossbow — piercing bolts, 6 per reload, unlimited reserve |
| Witch | 900–2,000 | Witches Potion — throwable potions that damage and debuff |
| Trick or Treater | 30 Candies | None — boosts Candy drops, pure event farm pick |
Ghost Ranger perks
- Level 1 — start with the Ghost Crossbow. Its glowing bolts pass through enemies, so line up a row for multi-hits. Six bolts per reload, unlimited reserve ammo.
- Level 2 — unlock after 100 crossbow kills: enemy projectiles have a 25% chance to pass through you.
- Level 3 — unlock after 300 crossbow kills: one extra bolt per reload (seven total).

Survival tips
- Visit during the day — the Deer can spawn inside at night, and Wolves are scattered through the paths as traps.
- The maze layout is consistent each run; memorise the red-arrow pattern on your first clear to speed up later visits.
- Repeating the three Carnival Minigames is a reliable candy farm — each pays up to five Candies, so stock up before the maze.
- Use the wooden exit structure (or exit portal) to leave safely — do not try to backtrack through the maze.
