The Witchmother's cauldron can once again turn characters into skeletons, while the Impresario returns with rewards from earlier festivals.

The introductory quest remains free.

The event began October 21 at 14:00 UTC and ends November 4. New participants can claim the free The Witchmother's Bargain quest from the Crown Store to unlock the Witchmother's Whistle. Returning players who already completed the introduction can use their existing collectible.

The whistle summons a cauldron that temporarily turns a character into a skeleton. The XP bonus is automatic, so drinking from the cauldron is not required for faster leveling.

According to MMORPG.com, a character's first qualifying boss kill of each type per day pays 300 Trade Bars and a legendary reward skull. Skulls can contain outfit pages, treasure maps, and the new Zhekleg armor pages.

The festival overlaps with ESO Season Two, which adds dedicated solo versions of two dungeons. Its end date is listed on the The Elder Scrolls Online page.
