Guide to Obtaining Dark Trinkets in Dead by Daylight’s Halloween Event

Dark Trinkets represent a distinctive form of in-game currency that is specific to the Halloween-themed event, Haunted by Daylight, within Dead by Daylight. Players who are not regularly engaged in the game might find it somewhat perplexing, as Trinkets are also the currency utilized in other events but with different names. To maximize your experience during the Haunted by Daylight event, it’s crucial to gather as many Dark Trinkets as possible in order to earn all the exclusive rewards. Here’s your guide on how to collect Dark Trinkets during the Halloween event in Dead by Daylight.

How to Accumulate Dark Trinkets in Dead by Daylight | Haunted by Daylight 2024

To obtain Dark Trinkets, you need to complete the Event Tome challenges associated with the Haunted by Daylight event. Access the main menu where you’ll find a play button labeled with the Haunted by Daylight event name. Entering these matches will immerse you in the special Halloween event, characterized by the presence of Void Pumpkins and an interactive Void Realm.

Prior to participating in these matches, it’s important to navigate to the Haunted by Daylight challenges found in the Archives within the main menu. Once you open the Haunted by Daylight section, you’ll encounter a progression web that resembles the Blood Web system familiar from character advancements.

In the Haunted by Daylight web, you’ll have the option to progress either towards the top or the bottom. You can pursue both routes, but your decision should be based on which challenges you find appealing. However, many players choose to explore both paths since the upper section provides unique cosmetic rewards while the lower part offers opportunities to collect one or two nodes of Dark Trinkets.

Upon completing the initial Event Tome, you will discover additional rewards on the right side, which include more exclusive Halloween-themed cosmetics and additional Dark Trinkets. Each week introduces a new web filled with more challenges, cosmetics, and Dark Trinkets to earn and acquire.

Once you choose a challenge, drag it into either the Survivor or Killer Challenge bars at the top of the web. After activation, you can play matches to make progress. Most challenges are “naturally”unlocked through regular gameplay, which includes objectives like unhooking survivors, hooking opponents, and repairing generators.

Where to Use Dark Trinkets in Dead by Daylight

Dark Trinkets can be spent at the exclusive Haunted by Daylight store. This store is distinct from the main Store tab, which can make it tricky to locate. Look for the “Haunted by Daylight” banner positioned in the bottom-right corner of your main menu screen.

By clicking on this banner, you’ll gain access to a range of exclusive cosmetics available for purchase during the event. Under the Collection tab, you’ll find items that require Dark Trinkets as currency—not Auric Cells. These may include several previously available items from past Haunted by Daylight events. If you navigate to the regular store tab, you’ll discover even more exclusive cosmetics, although these will necessitate Auric Cells, which is the game’s premium currency.

It’s advisable to focus on the Collection tab, as it displays the only cosmetics you can buy with Dark Trinkets. The selection may be limited since many other cosmetics can be unlocked via the challenges, as discussed earlier. Earning a specific number of cosmetics during the event will grant you points. These points offer three milestone rewards for additional cosmetics:
