Hallow's End is a Halloween-style event that takes place at the middle-end of October. It starts on October 18th, and ends on November 1st.

It marks the day the group of undead, who would later be known as the Forsaken, broke free of the Lich King's dominance and once again regained their free will. They celebrate this occasion by setting fire to a wickerman after a short speech from Sylvanas herself and smearing the ashes across their faces.

Why the Alliance or any other Horde race would celebrate this event is unclear. It seems some people will use any excuse to throw a party.

Help, policies and guidelines

WoWWiki is a wiki dedicated to cataloguing Blizzard Entertainment's Warcraft Universe (with a focus, though not priority, on World of Warcraft), covering the entire Warcraft series of games, RPG reference books, strategy guides, novels and other sources. However, this is not Wikipedia, and we have slightly different ways of doing things.

For more info, check out About WoWWiki.
