The Haunted Floating Festival runs in Disney Dreamlight Valley from October 7 through October 31, 2026. Gameloft says this year includes new and returning puzzles with seasonal decoration rewards. Below are community-reported launch-day solutions for the puzzles with published answers; use current in-game clues if a step differs in your game or language.
How to enter the Haunted Floating Festival
Gameloft’s official 2025 event instructions said players could enter through the Plaza portal or choose the event’s teleport option. That guide also advised exploring the island for clues and resources, and noted that some items may depend on the time of day or weather. The 2026 announcement confirms the event’s return but does not restate those mechanics, so follow the current event menu and in-game prompts if entry or puzzle conditions have changed.

Community-reported puzzle solutions available at launch
The detailed answers below come from a community-maintained event index, not an official 2026 walkthrough. The index says eight puzzles are available at launch and lists a ninth for October 18. Names or steps may differ with localization or in-game behavior; use the clues you see in your own Valley to verify a solution. Community event index
Ghostly Critter: feed Zero
- Find the roaming Ghostly “Zero” Fox. The index places Haunted Skeleton Fish near Zero’s house.
- Feed the fox one Haunted Skeleton Fish. It reportedly drops a memory piece.
- Repeat the feeding on four days to collect the pieces needed to assemble the full memory.
- When the memory is complete, dig at the location shown in it.
Combination Pillar: enter the symbol order
The reported solution, in order, is spider web (I), bat (II), witch hat (III), then cat (IV). The pillar is said to be behind the Haunted Mansion. To find the order from the clues, count the pumpkins near the glowing symbols around the island. The index reports the Haunted Festival Dress as the reward.

Haunted-house book and page puzzles
The index describes a Lost Magic Page in a back room opened with a Repaired Haunted Key, and a Missing Books puzzle that involves placing books on shelves and assembling a memory. It also mentions a memory featuring a book titled Terrifying Tunes by Major Frite. These are community-reported steps rather than a confirmed official walkthrough; prioritize the clues and interactions shown in your game.
What is not available yet
The community index lists a ninth puzzle scheduled for October 18, 2026. Because the event is only at launch on October 7, its solution and reward are not established here. Gameloft’s current announcement confirms the event dates and promises new and returning puzzles with seasonal decorations, but does not publish detailed solutions.
