Spookiness Abound in Elder Scrolls Online

It's the Witches festival in The Elder Scrolls Online, handily coinciding with the impending arrival of Halloween in the real world. For the remainder of the month, demonologists, conjurors, lamias, warlocks, and thaumaturgists will convene in secret locations throughout the wilds of Tamriel to engage in all manner of incantations, invocations, and conjurations, offering players a fun celebration of the season.

To join in the frightening festivities, players can visit the Crown Store to get their free Crow Caller, then blow into this baneful bird call to have “The Witchmother’s Bargain” quest bestowed upon them. Completing the quest provides the Witchmother’s Whistle which can be used to summon The Witchmother‘s Cauldron. This bubbling bowl of toil and trouble will polymorph players, and anyone in their group, into the terrifying visage of an Undead creature. The polymorph will last for two hours, but players will be able to use it as many times as they like until the first day of Sun’s Dusk on the first of November.

During this seasonal in-game event, players will be able to turn themselves and any member of their group into the Undead, gain a 100% XP boost, unlock event achievements, and have an increased chance to score spooky loot, including the Hollowjack motif, exclusive masks and more
