Survive Overnight in a Mega Store The Hollow tickets: Event Guide

To earn The Hollow tickets in Survive Overnight in a Mega Store, collect 18 pieces of Halloween candy across three specific variants, drop them into the entrance cauldron, and complete the stirring interaction.

Completing the Halloween event challenge rewards players with The Hollow - A Tasty Brew badge and event tickets inside the central Hollow Hub. While YouTube creator El Tio Roble noted receiving 40 tickets upon confirmation, primary coverage from TechWiser and Pro Game Guides reports 20 tickets alongside the event badge and an infinite-ammo Pumpkin Slingshot.

Cauldron Recipe Requirements

The brewing cauldron sits directly past the store entrance turnstiles. Above the pot, a tracker displays three separate candy counters. You must supply six candies for each variant to fulfill the recipe:

  • Six candy corns
  • Six wrapped candies (purple sweets)
  • Six candy canes (red-and-white striped sweets)

Depositing extras of an already completed type will display a full message and reject the piece. Players on PC equip the candy from their hotbar and press G while standing over the pot to drop items inside. TechWiser notes that standard avatars possess five base inventory slots, so carrying food, a weapon, and collected sweets requires regular drop-offs at the cauldron entrance.

Where to Find Halloween Candy

Candies generate across three distinct sources in the store: pumpkin chests, graveyard coffins, and defeated hostile employees.

Candy SourceBest SituationRequirements & Risks
Pumpkin ChestsFast multi-candy gainsCan only be opened at night; may trigger employee alerts or jump scares
Graveyard CoffinsDaytime gatheringRequires lifting heavy coffin lids; located at the far back of the building
Defeating EmployeesEmergency defenseEnemy drops are not guaranteed; high danger of taking swarm damage

Pumpkin chests contain up to three candies each. These chests stay locked throughout the daytime and become interactable once night falls. In YouTube coverage by SpSv1Ly, opening coffins in the rear graveyard works during daylight hours, allowing players to secure candy corns and wrapped sweets before nighttime monsters spawn. Some open graves lead downward to concealed alcoves housing three chests at once.

Chests appear around distinct landmarks across the store:

  • Near the blue pillar in the center aisle corridor
  • Inside the weapons display section to the left of the main entrance
  • Across the play area and aisles
  • Within the cemetery at the back wall of the store
  • Along the toiletries and toilet paper aisle

Staying Alive While Gathering Candies

Surviving the night requires managing energy and combat readiness. Food items like burgers and canned snacks spawn on grocery shelves; consuming them restores player energy to prevent starvation. You can learn more about general survival loops in our how to play walkthrough. Taking damage does not kill you instantly, but health regenerates gradually when avoiding conflict, or can be patched with a found medkit. In addition, YouTube creator Inquisitor noted that red-and-white candies function as consumable healing items if health drops dangerously low before delivery.

Before night begins, visit the front display racks to grab a Katana or sword weapons to fend off aggressive workers. Entering a server with friends through multiplayer makes guarding the entrance and splitting up across aisles considerably safer than solo exploration.

Brewing and Claiming Tickets

Once the tracker confirms six candy corns, six wrapped candies, and six candy canes, interact with the cauldron by holding E to stir. TechWiser documents the stirring animation lasting roughly ten seconds. Completing the animation unlocks the Tasty Brew achievement among the title's badges and awards the Pumpkin Slingshot. Return to the Hollow event hub through the main menu to confirm ticket delivery and claim your event prizes.
