The Haunt Event

The Haunt was a Halloween event hosted by Roblox that took place between October 24th, 2024, and November 1st, 2024. 22 games participated in the event, with Pressure being one of them.

Overview

The Haunt Event added a special Raveyard Expedition, where players participating in the event could take captures of themselves in The Raveyard. The captures were then sent to The Haunt's Main Hub, where players could vote on other captures taken by other players to obtain accessory items for their character.

The Raveyard is an expedition that was made with the intention of being used in The Haunt. Players are sent to crash a party hosted by DJ Skeletunes and send the partying dead back to their graves.

Costume Contest

Unlike the regular Raveyard Expedition with the ordinary Game Mechanics, The Haunt's version of The Raveyard had different areas of the graveyard opened to allow players to explore and take captures in different settings. These areas could be accessed by simply walking to said location or by using placed teleporters. The different areas are: The Entrance, The Crypt, The Lower Crypt, Club Spectrum, and the center of the graveyard.

Controversy

Initially, The Raveyard was specifically made for The Haunt Event; as the Pressure development team believed The Haunt would take a similar format akin to previous events hosted by Roblox, such as The Hunt: First Edition or The Classic. The Raveyard was made under 40 days of development, resulting it to be extremely buggy on launch.

After being informed last minute by Roblox that The Haunt would instead be a costume contest, the Pressure development team had to quickly fulfill the aspects of The Haunt Event. This resulted with the creation of a variant game place of The Raveyard with the addition of Roblox's capture tool; all for The Haunt's costume capturing purposes. The regular Raveyard Expedition would instead be released on October 21st, 2024; 3 days prior to the start of The Haunt Event.

Trivia

• On initial launch of the event, in The Haunt's Hub, a bug existed where Pressure's portal name was incorrectly switched with The Mimic's, another participating game in the event.
• In The Haunt's Raveyard, a wall of text was placed to show players how to navigate the event area, with a short extra paragraph added on the bottom.
  • Shortly after, the extra paragraph was removed.
• On day 5 of the event, in the Main Hub, a Bouncer makes an appearance in one of the encounterable floors in the Elevator of Terror section of the hub.
• The Haunt event was the initial reason of the creation of The Raveyard after believing it was a developer hunt.
  • After it was revealed that it would be a costume contest, a seperate costume contest teleport would be later added to the right in the Lower Level Dock.
