It's that time of year again — the spooky season has arrived in RuneScape 3, and with it comes the return of Harvest Hollow, packed with brand-new activities, a short seasonal quest, and exclusive rewards. Whether you're a veteran looking to collect new cosmetics or a casual player hoping to enjoy some festive fun, this year's event is both rewarding and accessible. Grab your cup of tea, relax, and let's dive into everything Harvest Hollow 2025 has to offer.

How to Access Harvest Hollow

You can reach the Harvest Hollow event hub through the Events Portal in Burthorpe, but teleporting directly via the community teleport button or Harvest Hollow lodestone is faster and more convenient.

All players can access the event's core activities right away, although some features are locked behind the new 2025 seasonal quest, “Guys and Dolls.” If you haven't completed last year's quest, “Field of Screams,” it's highly recommended to do so — not only for lore continuity, but also for the 10,000 event currency, bonus outfit, and pet it rewards.

The 2025 Quest: “Guys and Dolls”

This year's mini-quest, Guys and Dolls, is a quick and festive adventure you can start by speaking to Guy, a ghost NPC near the bonfire at Harvest Hollow.

Quest Requirements:

• Red, blue, green, and purple dye (purchasable on the Grand Exchange)

• An Ancient Torso (obtainable via Archaeology at mystery remains west of the dig sites)

Once you have the required items, speak to Dolly in the City of Um, found near the Sovereign Docks, south of the lodestone. (Players who haven't completed the Necromancy tutorial must do so before starting the quest.)

After talking with Dolly, return to Guy at the bonfire, then speak with Doyle, the scarecrow NPC near the pumpkin patch. Follow the dialogue, click on the cart when prompted, and give Doyle the Ancient Torso. Once the crows are scared away, return to Guy to complete the quest and receive your new seasonal pet.

All Harvest Hollow 2025 Activities

This year's event features six total activities, including two brand-new ones. Here's a breakdown of each, including approximate Spooky Token rates and XP rewards.

Firemaking Bonfire (New)

Located by the color-changing bonfire, this new activity rewards players for matching the color of the bonfire with the logs they burn.

• Matching colors grants double XP and 28% more Spooky Tokens.

• Burning mismatched logs still provides tokens and XP.

• Average: 4,400 tokens/hour (AFK), up to 5,600/hour when actively matching colors.

• Works with any log type, including protean logs, allowing AFK training with rewards.

Farming Pumpkins with Doyle

Assist Doyle in the pumpkin patch to collect and deliver pumpkins while scaring off crows.

• Best strategy: Alternate between full-field clears and mass “scare” actions every two runs.

• Token Rate: ~11,250 Spooky Tokens/hour depending on assigned tasks.

Archaeology Remains

Excavate mystery remains for Ancient Remains and Artifacts.

• Ancient Remains: Used for the Bounty of Bones collection (1,000 tokens + Prayer XP).

• Artifacts: Complete the Horrible Hollow Mysteries collection (1,500 tokens).

• Token Rate: 12,000+ tokens/hour, with bonus XP from Archaeology training.

Summoning Ritual

Keep the candles lit and summon spirits at the ritual circle.

• Very AFK-friendly; make sure at least one candle stays lit.

• Every full energy bar grants 400 tokens (~every 3 minutes).

• Token Rate: 8,000 tokens/hour on average.

Thieving Mausoleums

Loot glowing mausoleums or open coffins for valuables.

Hand in Ancient Valuables and Heirlooms to Peekish for tokens.

• Every 100 valuables = 50 tokens.

• Token Rate: 10,000–11,000 tokens/hour, semi-AFK.

Maz's Maze

Run through a spooky maze, avoiding monsters and collecting Bone Clubs to defeat the boss.

• Rewards: 800 tokens per run, agility XP, and a chance at rare boss pet skins and Halloween masks for bosses like Araxxor, Solak, and Osmumten.

• Boss rotation changes weekly, allowing new skins and masks to be earned.

• Completing other activities also unlocks double/triple loot tokens for this event.

Event Rewards & Shop Items

Trade Rainol to spend your Spooky Tokens on a wide variety of cosmetic outfits, pets, and legacy Halloween items. Many rewards from previous years return, alongside several new ones for 2025.

Key Rewards:

• Wendle Pet Burning Skin – Guaranteed by handing in 75 Clan Confections.

• Sparkler Cosmetic – A rare wieldable obtained from the Clan Ceremony.

• Spirit of the Harvester Pet – Rare drop from Clan Goodie Bags via the NPC Cough.

• Moonstones and Goodie Bags – Bonus drops from turning in Clan Confections.

The Clan Ceremony takes place every Sunday at 8:00 p.m. game time, rewarding all participants with additional goodies and rare chances for exclusive pets or cosmetics. If you miss it, don't worry — rewards can still be claimed later from Cough.

Final Thoughts

Harvest Hollow 2025 successfully builds on last year's event with new activities, a charming mini-quest, and a robust reward system that encourages participation across multiple skills. Whether you're farming pumpkins, burning logs, or running Maz's Maze, there's something for every type of player — from AFK skilling fans to event completionists.
