Trick Or Treat?
The moment you enter *Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery*, you'll be enveloped in Halloween vibes. Diagon Alley and the castle are adorned with eerie decorations, and new locations have been introduced to enhance the festive atmosphere. In keeping with Hogwarts traditions, a House-themed pumpkin hunt is on the horizon, offering magical rewards until October 31st. Additionally, a Creature Expedition will commence, where you'll encounter the fearsome Acromantula.
Have you unlocked the Swooping Evil yet? This brain-eating, sting-ray-like creature, first seen in *Fantastic Beasts*, is now part of the game. A Special Adventure featuring the Swooping Evil is underway, as it has somehow infiltrated Hogwarts Castle. Your mission is to assist Hagrid in capturing it before anyone gets hurt.
A new side quest, "The Vampire of Hogsmeade," introduces vampires lurking near Hogwarts. Professor Dumbledore has declared Hogsmeade off-limits, challenging you to unlock the One-Eyed Witch statue and uncover what's hiding in the fog.

The Halloween update introduces the "Hogwarts Diary," a new feature where you'll solve puzzles by engaging in various in-game activities. Each completed section of the diary unveils artwork through magic inkwells, piecing together an overarching story.
Your journey begins with an invitation from Madam Pince to the library, where you'll embark on a quest to find the Lost Spore Scrolls. These scrolls, penned by Professor Phyllida Spore, a former Hogwarts headmistress, contain secrets about the school's magical fungi.
