World of Warcraft won't be the only game celebrating Hallow's End. Fellow Blizzard game Heroes of the Storm will also have their own Halloween-ish event to let players earn new rewards.
Blizzard will kick off Hallow's End in HotS on October 27 at 10 AM PDT with a bonus XP event. Any matches that reward XP will give you an additional 50% until 10 AM PDT on November 3.
The full event will apparently run until November 17, though. Players will be able to earn a Jack-O'-Lantern portrait for their account by playing 25 games during that period. You'll be able to see your progress toward this goal through a special quest in your log.
Two new items will go on sale during Hallow's End. The Headless Horseman's Charger Mount is a ghostly horse inspired by a Hallow's End reward from WoW. Buccaneer Falstad turns the gryphon-flying dwarf into a pirate riding a parrot:
Blizzard will offer these items in two Hallow's End bundles. One comes with just the new items, while the other includes some other ghoulish content previously released in the game:

Hallow's End is already underway over in WoW and will run in that game until November 1. Blizzard added a few new daily quests this year along with some new toys. For example, players can now buy a costume that turns them into Deathwing. You can find a full guide to this year's festivities over at Wowhead.
