Quick answer: Current event trackers report Piggy as the next monster after The Overseer, for Night 9 on October 30, 2026. Roblox confirms that The Hollow features nine monsters over nine nights and a live finale planned for the morning of October 31. The exact floor-opening minute and finale start time are not specified in Roblox’s main announcement, so check the live event hub before planning around a countdown.
For U.S. players, the priority now is to separate the next daily floor from the final live show and the reward deadline. Roblox says rewards can continue to be collected until noon Pacific Standard Time on November 2, 2026. That means the finale and the final reward-collection deadline are not the same thing.
Night 9: what players should expect
Roblox’s official announcement includes Piggy in The Hollow’s monster lineup. Current third-party schedules place Piggy on Night 9, expected October 30. Roblox confirms the overall event format and lineup, but its main announcement does not provide a guaranteed daily floor calendar or exact unlock time. Treat the Night 9 date as a reported schedule until the live hub confirms the floor.
The crossover features characters from existing Roblox horror experiences, but a character’s appearance does not confirm the exact puzzle or reward. Once Floor 9 appears, read the objective panel in the hub and follow the instructions shown in your own session rather than copying a solution from an earlier floor.
Night 9 checklist: do these things first
- Check the elevator. Confirm Floor 9 is actually available before relying on a countdown or repost.
- Read the current objective. Do not assume the Night 8 route, item, or puzzle mechanic carries over to Piggy.
- Confirm the reward registered. Wait for the in-game completion message, then check the hub reward display or relevant Roblox inventory category.
- Keep evidence. If a badge or item fails to appear, save a screenshot of the objective and completion screen before rejoining.
- Check earlier floors. Use the live elevator to see whether previous floors remain selectable; do not assume they are permanently closed.
Night 8 to Night 9: what changes for your plan?
Night 8’s reported monster is The Overseer from WARDEN; Night 9 is reported as Piggy. This is a good time to stop chasing speculative leaks and check unfinished quests, claimed rewards, and the event shop directly. A creator stream can offer hints or entertainment, but its start time does not prove that a floor is open on every server.
- If you still need a Night 8 reward: check whether Floor 8 remains selectable and complete its live objective before switching focus.
- If your main goal is the final daily reward: prioritize the new floor after the elevator confirms it is open.
- If you have claimed the rewards you want: avoid spending tickets on rumors; compare item names, prices, and claim conditions in the live shop.
- If an item is missing: recheck the correct inventory category and event hub. Never give a third-party site your password, verification code, or session cookie.
Finale date versus reward deadline
Roblox says The Hollow’s live finale is planned for the morning of October 31, 2026. The same announcement says players can continue collecting rewards until noon PST on November 2. These are different deadlines: the finale is a live event, while November 2 is the published reward-collection cutoff.
For U.S. players, finish time-sensitive objectives early. Do not leave a missing reward, badge, or unfinished quest until the final minutes, when server congestion or account-specific issues could make troubleshooting harder. Roblox has not published an exact finale start time in the announcement reviewed for this article; check the event hub and official listing for changes.
What if the event hub or reward panel is not updating?
Start with low-risk checks. Reopen the experience, wait for the hub to finish loading, and inspect the elevator and quest panel again. If a reward appears missing, check the relevant inventory category and event reward display. Avoid third-party “claim” pages, scripts, or executors that promise to unlock event items; they can put your account at risk.
If the issue persists, capture the screen showing the objective, completion message, and missing reward. Use Roblox’s official support route rather than giving login details to a community account. A community post may help identify a widespread issue, but it cannot guarantee a fix for your account.
