The Harvest of Horror was an event dungeon that was created for the Halloween 2023 event in Dungeon Quest. It was released on 2023-10-27 and was removed on 2023-11-27. The map only had Nightmare difficulty and required players to be at least level 25 to play it.
In this dungeon, players were all set to level 1 and given a set list of gear, with different gear appealing to warrior, mage, healer, and tank classes. Players were able to select from four classes at the beginning of the dungeon to receive its corresponding gear, though they could swap items at any time. Dying to enemies took 10 seconds off the timer, similar to regular dungeons without hardcore mode, and the dungeon would fail when the time was up.
The main theme was (raw) [Untitled].
Map Structure
The map had three main zones: a swamp, a cave, and a labyrinth. In two of these zones, the swamp and the cave ā the player encountered bosses. To summon the third boss, an additional step was required. Collect three specific items ā one from each zone: A log from the swamp, silk from the cave, and a pumpkin from the labyrinth. Once gathered, bring these items to the elevated platform and put the items on top of each cauldron at the spawn point. After this process, one of Pumpkin Lords would spawn. Defeating one of Pumpkin Lords finished the dungeon.

Trivia
- There was a trick where the players could get many materials from mobs. Players could simply stand on a log in the swamp area and attack mobs. This trick required too many players (more than 25).
- There was a bug where players could set Hardcore mode by pressing "Hardcore Mode" on dungeon select menu and switching back to "Harvest of Horror". This was an oversight, "Hardcore Mode" was never supposed to be played for this dungeon.
- When the dungeon was officially released, material drops from mobs were not guaranteed. This was changed on 2023-10-31, all mobs (excluding Wendigo) now dropped one material each and legendary materials were also added as mob drops.
- Material drops were doubled from 2023-11-11 till the end of the event.
- Void Pumpkin Lords were added as cosmetic drops on 2023-11-11. Before that, only titles were available as cosmetic drops from this dungeon.
- Pumpkin Lord is the fourth boss to have a debut animation, after The Kraken, Sea Serpent, Ancient Enchanted Tree, and Hela.
- Pumpkin Lord is the first boss created by Voldex Games to have a set ability cycle.
