It’s that time of the year again, when the leaves start falling and all types of frightful creatures come crawling out of the swamps. If you’re planning on hosting or attending a haunted Hearthstone Fireside Gathering for Hallow’s End, read on to find out what lurks within your local Tavern.

Host a Hallow's End Fireside Gathering

Anyone can host a Hallow’s End Fireside Gathering—head on over to FiresideGatherings.com and create an event today! Make sure to be specific with the details you submit so that local Hearthstone players can find your tavern. Once submitted, we’ll review your event and let you know if it has been approved.

Your Hallow’s End Fireside Gathering can take place any time between October 9 and November 5. Fireside Gathering support kits are also available to select Innkeepers, so register your event and request a support kit as soon as possible to get your spooky swag on time.

The Whimsy of Nemsy

This Hallow’s End, you should also expect a magical guest. Hearthstone’s newest hero, Nemsy Necrofizzle, will be available for free at established Fireside Gathering Taverns starting on October 17*. This pint-sized Warlock will creep her way into your Hearthstone collection if you play any Fireside Brawl at a Fireside Gathering Tavern.

Even though it’s Hallow’s End, have no fear—Nemsy will continue to be available at Taverns even after this spooky celebration meets its . . . end. All you need to do is to ensure that your Tavern is properly established and host a Fireside Brawl, and Nemsy will make an appearance, regardless of what season it is!

Have a Howling Good Time

Be sure to establish your Tavern so that Nemsy can join in the fun. A Tavern becomes established after you’ve hosted a Fireside Gathering that had at least three unique patrons in attendance. After you meet this requirement, your next visit to FiresideGatherings.com will prompt you to establish a Tavern that you and your community can call home.

Taverns take Fireside Gatherings to the next level by offering unique features like Fireside Brawls and Tavern Sign customizations options for Tavern Innkeepers. October’s Fireside Brawl is Tag Team—pull up a chair with your friends or make some new ones in this team-based Brawl!
